Pharrell Gets Interviewed by British Kids

Is this not the most adorable thing you’ve seen in a long time? Can I have a British kid? Pharrell did a press conference for his new book “Happy” and was asked questions by the most darling batch of kids.

Wow, I love how the intro to this cover begins. Even when I hear the original on the radio, I never get tired of hearing and singing along to it. I’m not sure what the significance of the stuffed animals is. Some may find it creepy. It’s a little bit adorable.

We’re going a little bit overboard with “Happy” today, but can you blame us? We love Pharrell! On another related note, my team adopted the song as our new anthem today so we’re naturally just over the moon. I was skeptical about this cover by Kina at first, but then I came to love it because it was just so so California. Isn’t it, though? It has such a laid back and airy feel to it. Job well done, Kina!

Happy Thanksgiving from Yow Yow!

Of course we’re blogging on a holiday! Happy happy Thanksgiving y’all! I hope all of you have had a lovely holiday spending time with your friends and family and indulging on a huge feast. I know I did. It’s been a year for both me and Yow Yow! First off, I needed to include this music video of Pharrell’s “Happy” because it’s one of my favorite jamz and I probably listen to it on a weekly basis. I first heard it on the Despicable Me soundtrack and recently learned that he had turned his song into a 24 hour music video. I don’t have time to watch all of that so I just included this one. It seemed like it would be good enough.

At our company Thanksgiving last week, I admitted something quite embarrassing to my co-workers in the middle of dinner…with a mic. “If you think that I’m excited here in the office, you should just SEE ME while I’m commuting on my way to work!” I couldn’t believe I actually said that, but it’s so true. Every day, I am so excited to go to work. I’m really lucky to be a part of a company that lets me work in the social media space, that lets me merge my work with blogging and music into my role, and that allows me to take chances and risks. 2013 has done a complete 180 and I know it’s because of this job.

All that aside, I’m very grateful for my family, friends, and the opportunities that Yow Yow! has provided me. This blog has led me here and I can’t wait to see where we are going next.

Happy holidays readers!

Josiah – Happy

Funny story. This has actually been a really ROUGH day. Not only do I need to step up my academic game but also my life game as well.

I think I first heard of Josiah two years ago and I’ve been a fan ever since. He reminds me a lot of John Legend and David Ryan Harris so you should check him out at his Myspace.

Listen to his stuff HERE
