I have always loved the vibe of this song, and pairing it with this treatment makes a lot of sense to me. Melanie Fiona’s bluesy vibe meets reggae beat meshes with her heritage on this song, and she rocks it well.

The video itself feels awkward at times — not sure why, but the part at the very end when there’s no dialogue but just empty air until she sings the hook out sums up that feeling completely. Other than that, from jump, I figured that what happened was what was going to happen.

Again, Melanie Fiona’s voice is one that you either like or don’t. I’m anxious to hear what her next album sounds like. The sophomore slump is either going to hit her hard or get sloughed off entirely by her. Time will reveal. The Bridge has definitely given her a great start however!

Apparently “Monday Morning” was a #1 hit in Switzerland, and someone found a video for it. It hasn’t been released here in the States yet, but it’s probably a safe bet that if they did, it’d be reshot.

It’s a simple piece with shots of Melanie on subways, in her bed, etc. mouthing the words and looking beautiful.

I got to say, her album was a little bit underwhelming to me, but there is no doubt that her voice cannot be denied. If you haven’t heard it, you should be sure to check out our interview with her as well!

Looking good though, and congrats on the Grammy nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance on “It Kills Me”!

Melanie Fiona is a fiesty firey musical siren in this clip for her latest single “Bang Bang”. I’m all for it too. One of the more uptempo and exciting joints on her debut album The Bridge, she’s all hair tossing/gun gesturing/limb flailing in this joint. It’s a sexy disaster at that too.

Melanie’s songs tend to run together on her album, but they seem to work really well outside of the context of The Bridge. This song is ready for TV and commercial licensing if you ask me.

The video gives a feel of them being outlaws, what with the lineup shots and all, and then tosses in some sexy shots of Melanie to wit. Not really any correlation, but hey, when all else fails…

If you aren’t yet convinced that you want to buy this album, check out some streams on imeem here. And her album has finally streeted in the US and is available on iTunes and in stores now. What do you think of this rowdy song and video?

I could have sworn there was a video for this song already, but I’m tripping. Melanie Fiona’s The Bridge is still yet to drop here in the States, but an enterprising person could find the international release if they tried.

The video for “It Kills Me” is all about Melanie Fiona. The drama she is giving in her face during performance clip is very appropriate and on-point too. The male lead from “CSI: Miami” and “I Can Do Bad All By Myself”, Adam Rodriguez, plays the love interest the song is about. The clip has a impactful ending. I like this video more than “Give It To Me Right” because it’s more about the feel/atmosphere of the song than it is about looking the beautiful Ms. Fiona. Not that there is anything wrong with that — she STILL looks great.
