Oh youtube. The love affair continues. But first, we must sort our problems out.
YouTube's dark side:
Has anyone noticed there is a "weird side" to YouTube? basically I was totally doing my homework (subtle wink) and i crashes into it. I clicked a few videos related to the janoskians. Hell no! I was not watching the janoskians two videos later , I was witnessing a man having his back blisters popped. Now, why on earth is that on the internet? could you not have done that in the privacy of your own home, because now you will be known as the man with the blisters all over his back and that is not a pretty title.
Working on YouTube:
A teacher asked me what I wanted to do with my life, I answered entertainer. (In the hopes that cobered publishing books aswell) She said I should go for it, but the other kids in my class made fun of that dream that I had, and here I am now writing things about them that they're never gonna see... I hope. Do you know how many times i feel like people have found this account though? Too many. Nah uh girl needs to get some security codes.
I have a YouTube channel. I don't use that YouTube channel, it's just there for when I'm ready to play my videos to the world...which is never. Me and one of my friends did set up a channel and we were filming but then we had an argument and now I have refused to talk to him again. ( so dramatic)
Whether I have a YouTube channel or not it doesn't matter, because I am still calling people my jelly bean tribe. I do it to my family and friends, it just sort of grew out from my obsession with jelly beans. (But young grasshoppers is my favourite thing to call people)
Video content:
The thing is though, most YouTube videos repeat other YouTube videos, so trying to come up with an idea is impossible, especially when they all try to be comedic. Some youtubers aren't funny verbally, it's the random shit they do to embarrass themselves that is sometimes funny. With a video, you have to be careful of what you're saying, and make each point clear so that it doesn't offend anyone. For example; these stupid "what girls hate about guys" " what guys hate about girls" WELL NEWSFLASH BITCH IT'S NOT ALL OF THAT GENDER THAT HATES THOSE THINGS, IT IS JUST YOU. Therefore, change the name of your stupid video to things I hate about guys / girls. Then channel the feelings from you, to one specific person because not every girl / guy is exactly the same.
Adverts:
Does anyone else find it annoying when you start a video and it comes up with a ten second long advert? I know ten seconds is really quick but it stresses me out so much, I only want to watch the newest music video to sleeping with sirens congratulations is that too much to ask for? I did not click on this video to waste my time watching someone advertising foot cream. put yo nasty toes away .
discoveries:
I got a question on ask.FM the other day asking how I found my music and bands that I like, and it was really hard to answer. I guess YouTube plays a big part in it, especially with their handy related to section. I praise who ever developed that. your Input was much appreciated. Normally I hear someone mention it in a video and then there is a suggestion to listen to them, so I obey orders and I listen to it. if I like it then I guess I become obsessed .
Covers:
The last thing I have on this subject is when people cover a song and they aren't very good at it. I hate having to live forever knowing somewhere on YouTube someone has covered a song, but made it their own. By wailing.
If a song is too difficult for you to sing, don't sing it. There is no need to see your self as a singer because you have a camera and a bad voice. As much as it sounds like I'm being rude, I'm honestly not.
Think of your favourite song, Or a song that means a lot to you. Now think of a Britney Spears wannabe signing that.
Have I proven my point?
It's not just me that has said that. Justin Hill from sleeping with sirens tweeted it too. Don't cover a song unless you're 100% sure you are the next Beyoncè. Even though in my personal opinion Beyoncè lacks talent.
Anywayyy, bye bye for now. Stay rad!
