I think we just had (less than satisfying) sex with Jonna on a t-p bed.
I loved this one. Sometimes I have to hear it a few times to get into it; I was hooked instantly on this one. 1:32-2:24 is heaven. ("Can't wait to get my hands on you. We'll do the things we said we would..")
No clue what's going on with this narrative, though. Any guesses?
What the fuck is this bullshit?
It's the new Shiela E album, dude.
It's probably the triteness of the song.
Not really digging this one. Was hoping more of the line of people waiting to fuck her or something. Now I'm just lost again.
"This is a follow-up video after ; John. She's a prostitute and has lost her innocence that we saw in BOUNTY. She's obviously having meaningless sex in this video and is reminiscing about her previous life." ?
That's funny, I loved this song right away. Especially that gorgeous bridge. Or maybe it's actually the chorus? The video isn't that compelling, but they're obviously going somewhere with it. I'm not sure how people can speak with such certainty about the narrative of these videos after the last crazy series. I think there's more to it than "Jonna's a prostitute".
Yeah, I suppose they can't all be winners.
JOHN was a masterpiece, though! The song AND the video (aesthetically, that is. It was shot beautifully, etc.)
In my mind, they end their set with JOHN.
Ya, John was perfect. Gonna give this another listen, after 1st time hearing it, I was a bit let down... still anxious for more though! Should be fun to see footage from her first real concert

I think some very clever sleuth may be on to something. I can't remember where I read this yesterday, but I didn't bother googling Alraune until today. Not suggesting that iamamiwhoami is following this plot to the letter, but it certainly does seem to have been an inspiration. Then there's the obvious tie-in to the mandrake plant which was integral to the narrative of the previous video serious. Hmm...
From Wikipedia.
Alraune (German for Mandrake) is a novel by German novelist Hanns Heinz Ewers published in 1911. It is also the name of the female lead character.
Legend
The basis of the story of Alraune dates to the Middles Ages in Germany. The humanoid-shaped Mandrake root or Mandragora officinarum was widely believed to be produced by the semen of hanged men under the gallows. Alchemists claimed that hanged men ejaculated after their necks were broken and that the earth absorbed their final "strengths". In some versions, it is blood instead of semen. The root itself was used in love philtres and potions while its fruit was supposed to facilitate pregnancy. Witches who "made love" to the Mandrake root were said to produce offspring which had no feelings of real love and had no soul.
Fiction
The novel deviates from the myth by concentrating on the issues of artificial insemination and individuality: genetics versus environment. A scientist, Professor Jakob ten Brinken, interested in the laws of heredity, impregnates a prostitute in a laboratory with the semen of a hanged murderer. The prostitute conceives a female child who has no concept of love, whom the professor adopts. The girl, Alraune, suffers from obsessive sexuality and perverse relationships throughout her life. She learns of her unnatural origins and she avenges herself against the professor.
Show is on Friday, around 10am pac time. This fan site has links to the fans that are going to try to stream the performance.

The suspense is killing me!
God bless fanboys and computer nerds! If this were up to me, I'd still be figuring out how to make italics in wordpress. I wonder what Jonna thinks about fans shooting an amateur version of her performance. Well, that's the risk you take when you start doing real performances. I'll be in meetings at that time. Looking forward to seeing what's captured later.
omg y'all, i forgot it was today!
In about an hour or so, they take stage.
I looked at the set times. They end their set or just barely overlap to when Prince starts. That SUUUCKS (for them, i mean).
But neat, Robyn is playing before Prince. I wonder if they met. She's a HUGE Prince fan.
Anyway, supposedly possibly streaming at the iambountyfan site. People in the live chat room anxiously waiting.
Hmm I can watch it when I come back from my first break.![]()

Just about.
And I wonder just how it could possibly be watchable by someones cell phone or something.
But at least to get an idea, I guess. If it's really shitty, I'll just wait for videos on youtube.
Let's see this shit...
No stream, but I give you, the FIRST PIC EVER:
