"Boo Hoo" by Skye（Home-made Music Video）

This should be my second attempt at home-making a music video in dedication to a song vocally performed by Skye, a.k.a. Skye Edwards, a Britain-based female singer-songwriter as well as the lead vocalist for the music group, Morcheeba, since 1994, the time when Skye first started her music career in a fairly long-term collaboration as a principal group member with this music group. This song, "Boo Hoo", so rich in atmospheric ambience with musical elements of trance-like electronica and trip-hop melodic tune and shades of alternative rock, coupled with a sentimentally and persuasively dialogical set of lyrics, appeals to me as if it had already connected by means of a chemistry bond with my heart and soul in resonance and reverberation upon initial listening and repeated looping of this song, which is one of the most prominent feature when it comes to Skye's music works. This song is officially included in her second solo studio album, "Keeping Secrets", released on 27 October 2009.

A complete set of the lyrics to this song is available below for reference only and no copyright infringement is intended for the audio section of the song, in which I claim no ownership.

"Boo Hoo"
Music & Lyrics by Skye

Boo hoo,
that's you crying in the night,
and your fists are clenched so tight,
keeping secrets.

Screw you,
that's what you would love to say
and you'd kick 'em out of the way
but instead, you're silent.

But (so) what if for one day,
just one time,
maybe you might try, might try to
scream it if something isn't right,
tell somebody else what you fear, what you're feeling.

Scream it, don't keep it to yourself.
All of the rocks you got on your mind,
go to the top and throw them down one by one.

Poor me, that's you drinking once again,
'cause it helps you to pretend
when you say it's alright.
Save me, that's you feeling so alone
going through this on your own,
you don't have to.
