Okay, so I dig Rihanna's new-ish song "Only Girl in the World." The song kinda randomly popped up unexpectedly a little over a month ago. She already had another single out that was getting airplay. Then this dance-y number took radio and clubs by storm. The song was released on iTunes shortly thereafter it was leaked.
The beat is infectious. How would you picture the video? Fast-paced? Some choreography? Yea, this vid's got none of that. It evokes a 1970s singer/songwriter vid/song. I think the video director thought sharp camera angles and twists would make the video cool. I don't think it succeeds with the music but it may succeed with the lyrical content. But in reality, can you see this video being played at a bar? You'd probably fall asleep.
