Funny enough, just the other day an interesting concept for a Music Video to "Apple And Cinnamon" popped into my head while listening to it and now I appreciate the song so much more when I think about the concept while listening to it. Kind of hard to explain. But it involves like still shots and flashbacks and mixing the present with the past.

Have Utada in the midst of this terrible aftermath singing the song while looking back on before when they had no idea what was coming. But really make it dramatic and terrible to heighten the fact. Also the "Spacey" effects they use on Utada's voice when she sings "Simple and Innocent" and "Apple and Cinnamon" give me this feeling as well. Very surreal and foreboading.

Now this just came to me to kind of give an example, not that I'm really saying they should use this, but have like a dead body face first on the floor so that we don't know who it is and then like when Utada sings, "Started off so simple and innocent", flashback to really good blissful times and then keep going back to the dead body on the floor or Utada or somebody standing near it with a knife.

Whatever. Just something like that. And then at the end we realize the dead body on the floor was like somebody in the background of the scenes that we hadn't even noticed and not who we thought at all and then we go through all of these flashbacks revealing the mystery. Very ominous.

Ever played "Braid". The award winning XBOX360 game that had to do with Time Travel. Well what I'm talking about would very much be like the ending Climax of that game. Very creepy and unexpected.

And with Utada's "Ohhhhh"'s at the end of "Apple And Cinnamon", which I love, it would fit very appropriately with such a dark and depressing ending.

This is just me though. I can see how someone may think this is completely ridiculous and that the Music Video should be something like Utada playing hopscotch while eating Apple Jacks or something. Meh. I'd die.

And yeah, you'd have to completely disregard some of the lyrics to get this outcome. Lyrics aside, this is the feeling the music itself gives me. Plus it's better for me to think of if this way than just another Love Song dealing with Breaking Up. They Kill Me.

That aside, how's her music? Is it good?
