New Eric Himan Video "Little Boy Blue"
Eric Himan got a Nexty nom in the Brink of Fame: Music Artist category, and I have to say, he is someone who I could see being more popular than he currently is. I like his kind-of squeaky voice, and I like that he always keeps his music videos extra-gay. The last Eric video I saw "There's Gotta Be Something" chronicled a gay relationship, and this new one, from his Resonate album, follows a gay - well, not explicitly gay - teenager ... probably his younger self.
I still have some ish, though: The song's a little sappy, so I'd prefer a video that wasn't so literal and sentimental. I mean, the troubled teen's disapproving parents holding up his test with a big red F on it and then tearing up his sheet music? ...That's just ridiculous, Eric. Music is not your future!
I think the video was a good fit with the song. I don't think it was overly sappy at all and the sheet music thing was not ridiculous. I think it could have been done a little better. The video jumped quite a bit. I assume he got kicked out of his house, but don't remember seeing that in the video.
All in all, I liked the song and I liked the video. Thumbs up from over here.
