WINDOW SEAT

Premiere date: March 27, 2010.
Shot in Dallas on the St. Patrick's Day (March
17, 2010) in Dallas at the Dealey Plaza,
the place where JFK was assassinated in
November 1963. The video’s fuzzy,
slowed-down cinematography directly
references the Zapruder film of that
event. Badu walks down Elm Street while
stripping her clothes off one piece at a
time - until she's fully nude. At the
song’s end Erykah’s bare stroll is
cut short by a sudden gunshot that
appears to kill her instantly. Streaks of
blue "blood" then spill from
her head as she lays in the street,
spelling the word "groupthink."
The video was shot guerilla style, in one
take and was inspired by the "naked"
video made by Matt and Kim. Badu said the
video was intended to launch a discussion
of "groupthink."

THE LIGHT

If there is a more perfect face, one
more worth contemplating and exalting,
than Erykah Badu's, I haven't seen it.
And so, it makes splendid sense that
Common's luscious, luminous video for
"The Light" makes artful use
— and art — of Erykah Badu and his
overwhelming admiration for her. Not to
mention her toes fresh out the shower,
her arms, her lips, and all-seeing eyes.
Framed as a letter to Badu, his very own
lady-love, and sampling from Bobby
Caldwell's sweet "Open Your Eyes,"
"The Light" is a charming,
tender, and undeniably soulful
declaration of affection and respect.
