I Want Crazy

Hunter Hayes is a brand new country singing sensation, he has two hit's in the top ten on the Billboard Charts, "Wanted" and most recently "I Want Crazy".  Well the other day on Youtube I had the opportunity to see his new music video for the song "I Want Crazy".  I thought it was brilliant, moving, and absolutely refreshing.   In today's media, celebrities have become unbelievably self centered as sex symbols, and sell their artistic standards and morals off for cold hard cash.  We see One Direction put out music videos, and even though their song is about love, the video consists of them jumping up and down, running around the beach in order to appeal to young girls.  There is no depth, or meaning behind any of it.  Well Hunter put out this video and it was fantastic.  It focused on the feeling of the heart and wild desires and aspirations contained in a young relationship.  I felt uplifted afterwards, which is what entertainment within the media should do.
