Snagging the TOP favorited spot on Youtube this week is "Without You" by Guetta, featuring Usher.
At age 17, Guetta began his career as a DJ in nightclubs throughout Europe. In the 80’s and 90’s, his DJing career took off, and he co-founded the studio Gum Pruductions. Since then, he has released five studio albums, sold over 3 million albums and 15 million singles, and won numerous awards, including Best International DJ, Best Producer, and Album of the Year. He is currently one of the most sought-after producers worldwide. “Without You” is the third single off of his latest albut, Nothing But the Beat, which was released earlier this year.
The track, featuring R&B singer Usher, is half dance-worthy techno, half crooning ballad. Guetto himself recently described the single to MTV News as “totally emotional.” He also suggested it was the "biggest record" on Nothing But the Beat.
"It's just totally emotional," he said. "Some of the record is a proper ballad, and then it goes to that crazy dance beat…”
The video itself is one, worldwide dance party. Literally. The DJ hosts a bash in continents around the world. Halfway through, the countries start to shift. Forget about plate tectonics and all that jazz, Guetta moves all seven continents with song. In the end you have a giant dance party on the beach, a happy-looking DJ, and Pangea. Oh, and let’s not forget about Ush. The singer is green-screened into the shots, dramatic posturing and all. Overall the video is fun, if not as good as the song itself. LINKS:
