The Big Bang-Rock Mafia

Heard this song on the radio and absolutely became addicted to it. Naturally, I looked up the music video on YouTube. I wasn't gonna hold my breath for MTV to premiere. Does anyone even watch MTV anymore? Besides me mom, that is. She's completely addicted to Jersey Shore and Teen Mom.


So watching the video I had a few thoughts I figured I would share with you:

1. Why feature Miley Cyrus? She doesn't even sing in the song. Doesn't she have her own trashy music videos to star in, or are we supposed to believe she's an actress now? 5 seasons of Hannah Montana and a starring role in The Last Song (see review HERE) are not beaming credentials, if you ask me.

2. Does Kevin Zegers strike anyone else as a less attractive Zac Efron?

Throw in some amazing baby blues with that jaw line and we can talk. As it is right now, I'm still reeling back to Air Bud.

Did anybody else watch that movie? They made like, a billion sequels. Talking animals really annoy me--I hated Babe.

3. I really don't understand this video. Is it actually Miley Cyrus? She's whispering Kevin's name at the beginning leading me to believe that he is portraying himself. Did they date? Was she really in an accident. someone please explain this to me. Clearly it is a song about sex, but what is with the car accident. Seriously, I'm lost here. Whatever.

4. Did you catch the thigh high boots Miss Miley is rocking?

My mom's rule of thumb: below the knee is acceptably edgy. Above the knee is embarrassingly trashy. I have a killer pair of black, velvet, knee high boots with 5 inch heels that my mom picked out for me. Every time I wear them, I attract unwanted attention. One time, I had a big, burly, black biker stalk me for 20 minutes in a Borders bookstore while I was shopping with my mom. True Story.

I can only imagine the trouble Hannah Montana gets herself into with thigh high leather boots and a mini. Oh yeah:


5. What's with the neck tat? Is that a real tattoo or just for the video? Again, I don't get it. Makes no sense in the video and is just plain tacky if it is real. Just saying.

I guess that's all I have to say on that subject. feel free to leave your own comments and critiques of the video, song, or any other inane somewhat-related subject.

  1. so i also loved the song and despretally looked for a summary on the whole music video. like you, im clueless, and saw your caption or whatever the thing is called, on google. so one of the top comments on the video said this:

    I think she died and while they were together and now she's haunting him because he caused her death but he didn't mean to so she seduces him to give back memories, and then disappears and get hit by cars to remind him and then she leaves the car just to do it again with that being said awesome song.

    i think this is true except for the part about the death being his fault. still pretty shaky there but...i hope this helps you because it helped me a little :D and if i actully discover the truth of the video, ill comment and keep you updated (:

  2. She was his girlfriend and she died in a car crash. Its her ghost thats portrayed through the video. In the beginning hes drawing grave stones and hears her whisper 'Do you miss me?' That bit there gives you a big hint. From there he keeps visualizing her and the car crash that took her away from him. My 2 cent worth.
