Here is a creative music video directed by Spookie Daly for the Alligator Records act, JJ Grey & Mofro and his song titled On Fire from his album titled Orange Blossoms.
JJ Grey generally delivers songs and music videos that a little different from each other. This video consists of a very funky song with Barbie and Ken dolls as the actors in the music video.

A girl walking with emotionally sensitive depth in the now, Trixie Whitley does it her way. Her music is grounded in authenticity so rare in this age of manufactured talent shows and misguided stardom. Whitley's pure soul is so deep it transcends & forgets genres, in her minimalist state with just her and her guitar or piano, or with a full band and/or studio recording.
Favorite recordings of Ms. Whitley's may indeed be her raw unpolished live takes with one mic and a guitar. They kill you every time with her uncontrived way of laying it down that takes listeners all the way there to feel it. But her studio versions are masterful works, such as this one below. It is definitely one of the top new videos of 2012, if not THE top new video for those who seek not the most popular. but most soulful., It's been spinning on repeat for the entire month, both the live and studio versions of the same song.
Trixie Whitley - Breathe You In My Dreams (Directed by Anton Coene)
Without ever seeing the above video, as when I first heard a stripped down version song off her album of live recordings, I fell in love with it immediately, not knowing it's a live recording until hearing the applause at the end, made it even more appetizing, because one realizes this is as raw as it gets and it's a most beautiful performance. Below is one of those typical live raw live performances... although the recording seems to be raw and unpolished from a camera mic, she transcends the sonic limitations.
Breathe You In My Dreams (Live at Rockwood Music Hall)
I will never forget the first time I heard Ayo and how stoked I was. I posted her song titled Life is Real on MusicLoad: http://www.musicload.com/2009/02/ayo-life-is-real.html and to this day still can't get enough of this artist.
She is from Lagos Nigeria, but has lived all over the world including Germany, France, the U.S. and other places.
Her repertoire of songs is vast with a great many of them being tear jerking ballads. She comes off as being very sensitive, usually laying her heart out on the table.
This video and song below was released in France by her label and never was promoted in the U.S. The director of the video was Pietro Di Zanno.
The song is a departure from her more sensitive ballads and songs. It's a grooving pop song that, because perhaps of the range she sings in and some of the phrasing, conjures up thoughts of early Michael Jackson when he was part of the Jackson 5.
