So that's what it says...
A nice Barbie update on an otherwise flu-ridden Skye Friday. A new song from Barbie Diaries appeared on the site a week or two ago, available to stream:
Stream Skye Sweetnam - "This Is Me"
Or check out the video by clicking "See a Music Video!" here. (Ha, playing the camera like a pro...hey, did she really play guitar on this track? I'm guessing not. 3-D Barbie looks kinda funky, should have been live action: "The Skye Diaries.")
The song is...eh, kind of dull. Hopefully the other tracks will move away from self-help material and display more of Skye's sense of humor. But I don't know how much input she had in writing or producing this stuff. My guess is not much -- but if nothing else, this is a reminder that the girl can sing, which may be all she's really doing in this project, anyway.
My excitement dwindles as this thing keeps getting pushed back -- the new album will be out in mid-July and should pretty much bury this project. I'm hoping for a gem or two in the rest of the track list, though...there was like a two-second preview of another song elsewhere on the site, seemed kind of Cars synth-oriented.
Just found a great typo in an Amazon review of this film (which hasn't been released yet and already has several 1-star and 5-star reviews. Hmmm...):
Barbie's #2 wish on her wish list is to 'Go Out With Todd'. Now Todd is known as the "Hottest Goy in School".
I'll bet he is.
EDIT: The name of Barbie's band? Charmz. Sounds familiar, can't seem to place it...also, apparently "Kevin," the "investigative journalist" kid, has made 26 short films -- don't go to film school, Kevin, it's not too late to become an IP lawyer!!!
Happy Skye Friday, Barbie fiends (and congrats to Skye on a Daytime Emmy nomination, even though she's not credited).
EDIT 2: Wowie Zowie! Major website overhaul took place today! Also a new blog entry:
BANGERANG!
Hey you feisty, rockers and rollers!
It's you're lil' (or big-depending on you!) sister Skye here! As you can see my site got a facelift! With all the Barbie promotion going on, it was a good time to change it up! See that huge photo of my face?! Well my sister Aurora gets credit for taking that shot at my beautiful forest outside my house! It was so amazing outside I just had to do my own DIY photo shoot! Hope you like!
By the end of this month all have all my songs recorded and finished and in March we start mixing! EXCITING! So hold on to your hats, earmuffs or tiaras 'cause things are about to explode!
oxox Skye!
Only on a Skye Friday...
