Snow Patrol – The Planets Bend Between Us Inspired by Maya Angelou’s iconic poem, “Phenomenal Woman”, “I’m a woman. Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me.” Laura Mvula‘s song of the same title beautifully affirms that statement and we feel like saying Phenomenal Cape Town too! Shot in South Africa, in Cape Town’s historical Bo-Kaap neighbourhood Mvula’s wonderfully vibrant video, awash with colour and energy celebrates all phenomenal women. Laura Mvula is a British soul singer-songwriter from Birmingham. Juxtaposing booming city rhythms with lilting folk, Jeremy Loops perfectly captures the duality of his South African life. Table Mountain is a backdrop, Kirstenbosch Summer Music Concerts, horses in Noordhoek, surfing in Kommetjie and jamming at Farmhouse Rocks, one of the best live gig venues in the city. Local and proud! Hailing from Kommetjie in the South Peninsula, Jeremy Loops often features Cape Town in his music videos. Their single “Nobody to Love” topped the UK Singles Chart upon release, becoming their first UK number one. Sigma are an English drum and bass DJ and record production duo. Summer, beach life, road tripping – this music video shows Cape Town at her fun loving best. His most successful single, “Let Her Go”, has topped the charts in many countries. This video with Cape Town’s city skyline, Kirstenbosch Summer Concerts, Chappies, Penguins, Dolphins, Cape Fur Seals and of course Sunsets really capture the magnificence of this city! Michael Rosenberg, better known by his stage name Passenger, is an English singer-songwriter and musician. SOUTH AFRICA has undoubtedly been one of the highlights and fantastic way to end this adventure!!!! the song is called “setting suns” and it felt like a fitting sentiment”. I can’t quite believe how beautiful that city is.
I am just going to start with Mike’s quote -it says it all! “The whispers world tour came to an end on Sunday so I thought I’d post a little video that we made over the last few days in CAPE TOWN. These are all part of the magic that we call home.Įnjoy and please let us know of any other music video’s shot and filmed in our enthralling city. Some are obviously Cape Town, some are more subtle and some merely allude to it. I love how all aspects of the city have been embraced by all genres of music from international superstars to local talents.Ĭape Town’s attractions, her beaches, her beauty, her colour, her dancers, her emotions, her ‘hoods, her moods, her mountains, her people, her streets, her townships, her vibrancy and her urban heart beat have been exposed in these visual delights. I was so impressed by how many creative souls have been inspired by Cape Town, including this city and her people into their music videos. It made me both proud and nostalgic to call Cape Town home. |aac&type=convert_url&br=128kmp3&agent=iPhone&callback=getlink&jpcallback=getlink.I had such fun writing this blog one evening sitting far from Cape Town. Say the word and I"ll go anywhere blindly All of the nights I don"t remember when you"re "round me Cause I know you and you know everything about me I am a sucker for all the subliminal things Any road you take you know that you"ll find me You say the word and I"ll go anywhere blindly You"re the medicine and the pain the tattoo inside my brain I follow you through the dark can"t get enough I"ve been dancing on top of cars and stumbling out of bars I"m feeling heat in December when you"re "round me Better than birds of a feather you and me Composed by:Ryan Tedder&Joe Jonas&Frank Dukes&Louis Bell&Nick Jonas&Kevin Jonas Written by:Ryan Tedder&Joe Jonas&Frank Dukes&Louis Bell&Nick Jonas&Kevin Jonas
