Saturday Happy Song-Lorde-Royals-UPDATED

I had no idea till just now there was an offical video for this song, it didn't come up the first time I googled, so here it is now. Text below from the artist reads:

Published on May 12, 2013

lately i've been waking up at 4 or 5 a.m., turning things over in my head. so much to think about, so much to break down and process and decide. i'm only at the beginning, but it has always been important to me that everything feels cool, feels right. this song means a hell of a lot to me, and to others, and i guess what i tried to do is make something you could understand. a lot of people think teenagers live in this world like 'skins' every weekend or whatever, but truth is, half the time we aren't doing anything cooler than playing with lighters, or waiting at some shitty stop. that's why this had to be real. and i'm at that particular train station every week. those boys are my friends. callum's wearing a sweater that used to belong to me. so it all feels right, and i can sleep. thanks for being with me all the way so far -- so much to come, such great heights. i'm just getting started. enjoy xx

 Facebook. The amazing frustrations of Facebook. I only keep the stupid thing to keep in touch with certain people that I otherwise wouldn't and too see all the family photos others post. My family is really, REALLY bad at staying in touch, and while this has left me hurt many times over, it's nothing I can control and so I just stalk their facebook pages to see what they are up to. It's sad, I know, but this is what has happened to humanity.
The latest upset facebook has brought me is the blunt realization that not only is it the only way I communicate with a whole section of people in my life, but, what sort of content that section (well, all of my facebook friends in this case) approve of and pay attention to. Case in point: today is my mother's birthday, she would have been 65, she is dead and has been dead for 8 years. Lots of likes on my happy birthday message to my mama, lots of likes and comments on the photos. Yesterday however, I begged my facebook community to watch and share the below video, of 2 men that are suspected of stabbing to death my friend and fellow artist/photographer Ila Packman.Not one like, share, comment, nada. Nothing.

Fascinating.  People and the things they pay attention to are fascinating.

Anyhow, this isn't  facebook rant post, although it kinda turned out to be and that was very, liberating since I don't actually speak this freely on facebook cause people get all butt hurt...Please watch and share the below video. Please say something if you know anything. Please? There's a reward....
