I’m really struggling with this new singer dude Chris Dane Owens. I’ve never heard of him before, I just watched his video, I have to admit I was really entertained, not because it was good, but because I wondered when the hard core porn was going to start. In his bio it talks about his music having a “Gleam of Techno-wizardry.” To me that’s not something you put in writing about yourself ever. Chris Dane Owens is a Los Angeles native, this fact to me is insane, because if this dude was from Norway he’d be hands down the coolest guy ever, but the fact he grew up in the sunshine, near disneyland, there is no excuse for his lord of the rings pale vampire ex twink bravado. I’m really conflicted, because this is everything I live for to pass my day, but then, a lot of time, money, and effort was put into this and I really don’t think he is joking. Even comeidans want you to laugh with them, and not at them. At the end of the amazing video it says, “Love Has Enemies”, at which you’re waiting for Fabio to come out and say, “I Can’t Believe its not art”, or something. The video was done by the special effects artist who did Ace Ventura Pet Detective, which, really makes me not want to dismiss him. I’m really conflicted. Help.

Should Chris Dane Owen be Dismissed or Not Dismissed?

    This is a classic existential quandary. I too was bedeviled by the glorious fantasia presented herein.

    In the end I figured, shit be funny; not dismissed.

    Definitely not dismissed! I love this video, although I confess I prefer it on mute.

    If you dismiss him you have to dismiss Bonnie Tyler. And there is no greater symbol of the power ballad avant-garde, than her video for Total Eclipse of the Heart. . .

    And without that, there would be no this…
