Vid Pick: Michelle Shaprow - Back Down To Earth

I gotta admit, Michelle Shaprow’s video for “Back Down To Earth” upsets me a little bit. Oh, it has nothing to do with the music, which is great, or the actual video, which is rife with imagination. It has to do with the fact that I’ve ridden buses all over the place but have never been transported to a magical land while doing so. Admittedly, the buses do always get me where I need to go, but would it kill em to take me on a mushroom-like fantastic voyage once in a while? Maybe if I could sing soulful funky songs like Shaprow they’d make those stops for me.
