hey @petruofan - I'm sorry if I offended you but I figured with you saying "expect something good" (implying you don't think the videos that aren't of her performing a song of hers, are any good) - "not impressive" and "leave this CRAP behind" gave me the imprssion you didn't have any sensablilties - my fault
@MrFunkyBone as I said, I am filled with apathy about those videos, I don't hate them. I found an other artist whose music is inspiring me just like Nikka in the years between 1994 and 2009. She's called Cat Power and at least that, what I hear from her is that, what I wanna hear. Accept it, not everyone follows an artist in each of his/her ways. Maybe I am no true fan and that's why I don't love her latest work, but shall I care about that? :)
@PetruoFan Might I say that while your opinions are valid (and by "valid," I of course mean "whatever"), can I just say that I recognized your screen name from years of being a Nikka fan and watching that washed out Vanessa Petruo poorly cover and terribly mimic Nikka's songs. Doing some recent research, as I haven't been privy to her current styling because: 1. She STILL isn't famous, probably because: 2. She absolutely sucks.
@PetruoFan ...(continued)...(She, by the way, has a video here of a song entitled "I Don't Need a Gun," which is CLEARLY misappropriated of the song "So Have I For You."). In short, if you're leaving Nikka behind in your "growth" as a music fan, then have at it. But if Vanessa Petruo and Cat Power (who couldn't be more of a glaring example of blow-hard, cliche soul if I ever heard one), then by all means GO! And stop mucking-up Nikka's space on youtube with your comments.
@j2thea2themes first of all you don't even know me as a person, my account is over 5 years old and that was the time when I used to listen to Petruo. I'm not a fan anymore since she released some cheap crap and since I discovered Nikka. And don't you have a better job to do instead of insulting people?!? loser
@PetruoFan Which is somehow different from your insulting the taste of fans who enjoy the box and Nikka's music? Don't you have more interesting things to do than wait for Nikka to disappoint you and comment about it on youtube? Hypocrite...
@j2thea2themes , I am pretty sure I am not the only one who was disappointed, however, I posted a comment, and now, every single "fan" is pointing me as the outsider here. So what? I don't answer to opinions which say, that this video is amazing or whatever, you could just ignore my negative comment. But maybe you think you're a bigger fan when you start arguing and insulting. Well, take look at my channel and the things I uploaded. That's my way being a fan.
@PetruoFan It's not a competition, sir. I simply mean that you're going WAY out of your way to do something you're getting riled up about others doing as well... Then contradicting yourself while you explain away your actions. If you feel you're being insulted, that's your right. But being a nag on a public forum (yes, PUBLIC) opens oneself up to the possibility of rebuttal. If you don't like people responding to your comments, then I suggest maybe not posting them...
@j2thea2themes it's funny how a nag is calling others "nags". Don't you have a better job to do? Alright, I got enough of sons of Baba Vanga, like you. I will post whatever I want, not everybody has your taste, like not everybody has mine! And for your information, it's not a competition, sir or lady or whatever you are.
"Thank You" to Nikka and all her talented friends she surrounds herself with - this is truely a gift she gives us from the heart and I hope it never stops being fun for her to give us a "piece" of her so willingly - Nikka is THE Funkiest Soul singer I have ever been blessed to hear - I thank God for ear that can hear such beauty !! - Peace
i`m a new years baby!... since i`m a full time babysitter for my granddaughter "go to fuck to sleep" has a special meaning...i hope you tour again in 2012 or release a concert dvd..
LOL! I've really enjoyed these box clips this year, Nikka. Thanks for all the uploads and wishing you an uproariously joyful New Year, Doll. You're the best for taking the time to do these clips and share them with your fans. Cheers from Europe, SistaGirl--- StyleCollective.
Alright, sorry for being so negative, but I hope I am not the only one. Every time I open a video from the box, I expect something good, something more like the Nikka I know before ProWhoa. But no, every time I get something like that, or like Go The Fuck To Sleep or some kind of silly jokes which are fine, but also not impressive. I LOVE her performances of the old songs, but only that. Will we ever get the good old funky Nikka and leave that crap behind? I am really getting apathetic.
@PetruoFan She's allowed to have fun. At least she is giving us something EVERY week. She doesn't have to but she does. Not a lot of artists give their fans this amount of attention. I don't like every box entry either, but it's something and it's creative. Can't Please Everybody!
@ellynaj the point is that I would prefer one good song for one year than all those videos every week. I don't want to argue, I have lived enough with her music and I still live with her first four albums. As for ProWhoa and the "Box", even though I tried liking them, I don't. The whole thrill of waiting for the following Nikka video or tune that leaks has gone. I remember finding "Sugarbone", "The Rules Of The Road" or a bunch of bootlegs, but this? It's not interesting and "fun" at all IMHO :(
@PetruoFan - did you think this was all just for YOU - it's not called petruofan box - get a life dude - the purpose of this is to show all sides of this great artist - soulful, beautiful, thoughtful, cocky, and FUNNY sides of her - there is beauty in simplicity sometimes - nothing more gratifying to a fan, than seeing the side of an artist that is purely intimate and given selflessly - I appluad her for always stepping OUTSIDE the "box" and doing the unexpected - so grow up !!
@MrFunkyBone instead of insulting me and telling me what to do you could just ignore my comment. Who shall grow up?!? I am not telling anyone what to do and what not to do. I just express my opinions. And unlike you, I don't use any kind of "get a life" and "grow up" cliches.
More like April Fools. How could you do that to me?!??!!! And they were obviously space age horns and streamers from the future because that's about the only thing that could drown out your voice.
That was such a tease... Thanks anyway Nikka, I hope we get to hear the actual cover sometime! And happy 2012 to you and your partner in crime Keith Megna as well :) xxxx
