I’m just throwing this out there for your review.
Head on over and check out Natasha Bedingfield’s video of “I Wanna Have Your Babies.”

I’m loving the relentlessly upbeat tempo of this song and the video is just, well, bizarre. Sasha Frere-Jones of The New Yorker agrees that this song is “possibly the freakiest thing on pop radio right now” but she kind of digs it too.

Doesn’t Bedingfield know that if she were to have those babies she’s talking about then the days of tennis and boat rides and nights at the club would be nothing but a daydream? There is one point in the video where she’s getting her cup of coffee. Now that’s life with children, distilled. I suppose if she was filmed drinking coffee in her bathrobe while ignoring a screaming baby for three minutes it wouldn’t be the upbeat song that it is.
Happy Saturday everyone.
