Videos can transform and bring a song to a new level. A couple of good examples this month.

Pomplamoose is on a roll, so many nice covers recently.
Big fan of Benny Sings. Tim van Berkestijn has real talent. Quite often different in the way Dutch are a bit different from the rest of us.
Tove Lo AND Kylie? Had to be great.
H.E.R. - 10/10p. Smooth.
For fans of Berlin electronica, this is a good month. Lots of new music from Ame, Booka Shade and Apparat. That Apparat video is scary, like the quote, "It is a feeling of relief, almost of pleasure, at knowing yourself at last genuinely down and out. You have talked so often of going to the dogs - and well, here are the dogs, and you have reached them, and you can stand it. It takes off a lot of anxiety."
