Video(s) of the Week - Primo + Spin

In case you haven't noticed, the day of the Video of the Week has changed to Tuesdays instead of Sundays. This week was really tough though. I was fully positive what the video of the week was going to be up until two hours ago when another amazing video was posted on Twitter.

First up: Primo by Colette Carr





Primo has been the most played song on my iPhone since it was released May 10. Colette had been hyping up the video on Twitter, Facebook, and even the Cherrytree chat. This girl knows how to survive in a viral market. The video was definitely not a letdown.

The video feels like pure summer. From hopscotch to driving around jammin' out like a dork, this video has everything a perfect summer should. The video makes an interesting use of green screens, as instead of being the main set, she walks in front of them momentarily as she walks down the street. The green screens even continue to display her adventures in driving and sidewalk chalk (land?) as she continues walking. Towards the end she even dawns the fabulous middle-eastern inspired wear she dons on the cover of the single -- much to my joy. The video is spectacular.


Next up: Spin by Cherri Bomb




Now this video is quite different from Primo. This is actually the second video created for their song, but the first done on an official record label. The video is vastly improved over its predecessor and the girls look fantastic. I really think they have the drive to make it and if they do, the could be the new age Runaways. As you probably don't know I am a giant fan of the Runaways, so for me to go as far as to say that, they must have some potential. But now, don't go thinking dirty thoughts about them either... They are only fifteen.
