Date Premiered: September 19, 2011 Director: Paul Hunter Favorite Scenes: J.Lo she walks on through the streets of the city she draws the affection of an ever-increasing number of men, including a gardener, a businessman and a motorcyclist, who fight among one another while Lopez walks on oblivious to the chaos behind her. Lopez finally reaches her car but is swarmed by the group of men who chase her with gifts of flowers and a puppy. The mob eventually outmaneuvers and corners Lopez, forcing her from the car. They proceed to dance around her in a complex display of choreography before lifting her from the ground. Her lover then emerges from a bus and rescues her and the crowd quickly dissipates, leaving the pair to drive away in Lopez's car.

Being one of the year's most popular pop/rap songs, it gained immense popularity especially in the internet and YouTube! With thanks to Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez rapping to it, it sparked it's future success! What else could be more successful of a bonus track of an album like this?! Wow, it's Nicki's signature hit, and fans and lovers of this song found ourselves practicing the whole rap while moving into the "pool of gummy pink sweet syrup" chorus!
"...It's time to kill the lights and shut the DJ down, (This place's about to), Tonight we're taking over, no one's getting out, [x4:], This place's about to blow-oh-oh-oh!, Blow-oh-oh-oh, (This place about to)...."

Definitely the right choice to be the second single! Ke (dollar sign) ha! once again released a follow-up dancefloor anthem! But while not much having impact like her other singles, it did enjoyed lots of chart life longevity! The hypnotizing chorus is the highlight of the song! as well as the spoken words, but aside that,! Let's just see its video once more to bring out the best experience of "Blow!". Literally, the place is about to be.....well,?! BLOWN!...
"...All my life I've been good, But now...I'm thinking, "what the hell?", All I want is to mess around, And I don't really care about...If you love me, If you hate me, You can't save me, Baby, baby, All my life I've been good, But now...What the hell?...."

The first single off the album, a very reminiscent of the same old Avril we have witnessed through her entire career! Did she mature in her upbeat songs? No,!?!? did she deliver? For me, yes! Well, I got myself singing to its tune once in a while earlier this year! So Ramona, nice lyrics but the depth of it was predictable! No complaints though, no hates for the song totally! but I don't listen to it anymore at the moment to be honest! Give us songs like the other tracks off the album and we will praise ya! MORE!...

Before 2011 saw Demi with problems on physical and emotional issues which led to her treatment in the rehabilitation center. But this year, Demi came back more stronger than before with the release of "Unbroken" which is her best album yet for me. With the lead single "Skyscraper", Demi showed why she is a strong girl, on how she fought her life problems. And with that song, it really touched me that led me to admire her more than ever! The lyrics, it seems everybody that is depressed and those who were ongoing with hard times on their life use it as a musical therapy! Fast forward to now, 2012, are you ready for Demi to "give your faves a break" though?! I hope so!
