V V Brown's 'Crying Blood' video: what do you think?

  • September 5, 2008
  • Popjustice

One of the problems with today's posts on Popjustice is that too few have been related to Island Records artists. Let's solve that problem with V V Brown's new video, for 'Crying Blood'.

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3-Q4T7bC2c

We honestly have no idea what to make of this. Is it good? Is it bad? Is it better than good, or worse than bad? Is it all four of those things at once? Or none of them? It certainly com­ple­ments the song — which is a good thing — but does it com­ple­ment the song too much? Are the dance routine bits dance­floor sen­sa­tions poised to sweep the nation, or are they ridicu­lous? And if they are ridicu­lous, what's wrong with being ridiculous?

It's all very confusing.
