On Twitter, Jackie Wang has been quoting Hélène Cixous, someone I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve never read. Grievances of this kind should not accumulate.
Flailing about, my vocabulary gets lost in loopy grammar yet I suspect the generally implied super- connection of language is still achievable if I continue to work at it, even though the assumption that, no matter what, you can say something remains awfully incorrect. I find myself believing that language is failing me while it succeeds for everyone else. I suppose the intersection of these desires presents a challenge I would like to refuse.
My love dont cost a thing how to#
I suppose I can but isn’t Taylor’s best friend Lorde cute when she hunches up Gollum-like to paw at the camera? I’ve always identified with this position: the sixteen-year-old who, unsure of how to act at the Grammys, only acts as an end in itself, flailing and throwing herself about, liberated of those constraints of taste that might keep her from behaving a little dorky on stage. Like can’t you stop, because the cessation of these interests that supposedly transcend my life for the Top 40 or the iTunes Top 10 is totally dumb. Rihanna’s ‘We Found Love’, which doesn’t play so often any more, is the opposite, but to describe either or do the work that insists that these particular evocations of sudden solidarity with others matter now or will in a future that most certainly will never come seems a little flawed. In ‘Welcome to New York’, which often plays on the radio these days, Taylor Swift greets a terrifying nowhere that supposes inclusion while ensuring the door to the city is locked. Nearly every song I’ve ever heard says nothing, whether by accident or intention. Lopez has performed "Love Don't Cost a Thing" live on numerous occasions, including the 2000 MTV Europe Music Awards and the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards in New York City, held days before 9/11.It is easy to say nothing. The music video subsequently became notorious after Lopez married Cris Judd, one of the back-up dancers who appeared in it. It became one of the year's most-viewed clips, and was highly requested on the music video broadcasting series, Total Request Live. The music video for "Love Don't Cost a Thing" directed by Paul Hunter and choreographed by Darrin Dewitt Henson was met with acclaim, garnering MTV Video Music Award and ALMA Award nominations. "Love Don't Cost a Thing" was also a radio hit, becoming her first single to top the American Hot 100 airplay chart. It peaked within the top ten in the United States and foreign markets including Australia, France, Germany and Ireland, as well as peaking at number one in Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, among other countries. "Love Don't Cost a Thing" was met with worldwide commercial success and is considered "classic Lopez". Described as "frothy" and "catchy" by critics, it was noted for its message about love and commercial appeal to women. Ultimately, the pair's courtship ended shortly after its release. Lyrically, "Love Don't Cost a Thing" is described as an "exploration of love" in which Lopez is unhappy about her materialistic lover provoking much media analysis as to whether or not it was an innuendo towards Combs. At the time of the song's release, Lopez was transitioning into a sex symbol and in a relationship with American rapper Sean Combs. Harris, and produced by Ric Wake, Richie Jones and Cory Rooney. The song was written by Damon Sharpe, Greg Lawson, Georgette Franklin, Jeremy Monroe and Amille D. It was released on Decemby Epic Records as the lead single from the album. "Love Don't Cost a Thing" is a song recorded by American singer Jennifer Lopez for her second studio album J.
