Pop Tart Heart [The Nyan Cat Love Song]

- June 25th, 2011 at 12:49 pm by --KALEB NATION-- -

Aside from being a very serious business author of literary fiction intended only for the most prestigious academic circles, I sometimes make music videos and post them on Youtube. My latest, “Pop Tart Heart”, is the tragic and true story of a cat searching for love in space:

 

You can get the song on iTunes here. It truly is the perfect music to listen to whilst enjoying a respectable plate of crumpets and cheese.

LYRICS

What do I do with my heart,

When it’s flying through space like a cat in a pop tart?

Where do I go when I fly all alone

Wishing outer space might lead me home.

What do I do with my pop tart heart
The edges and the middle are burning hot
You sent me flying into space and into the dark
Cutting through the galaxies, colliding with stars.

All I hear you saying is
Nyan Nyan Nyan Nyan
All you hear me praying is
Nyan Nyan Nyan Nyan
All the voices telling me
Nyan Nyan Nyan Nyan
That outer space is where I’ll be
Nyan Nyan Nyan Nyan

[Chorus]

How can I find love so far away in the stars
My heart is going faster than an outer spacial race car
All the broken promises you said you would keep
Without you here the galaxy just isn’t complete

The Truth About Youtube Videos (On A Budget)

- June 19th, 2011 at 11:57 pm by --KALEB NATION-- -

Youtubers are a very resourceful bunch. An actual budget for materials and special effects is rare when I’m making videos. This is because when I put money into a project, the cash is usually being gently siphoned out of what was previously the grocery bills.

So in order to avoid eating canned nuts and Ramen for a month, we tend to figure out little tricks to make the video LOOK decently shot while only using ordinary household items. Here’s how it works:

Listen friend: let me talk to you about attention spans.

A) I don’t have them

B) You don’t have them

C)

That’s the idea behind my new webshow, The 60SR: Random news, Reviews, Recaps and Rants, cut into a 60 Second video. Your panda videos will barely notice you were gone.

If you click that subscribe button you’ll be able to see all the new shows as soon as they’re up. Also, you’ll have a higher chance of being able to shout FIRST!, therefore making you King Of The Internets.

The Emo Buffalo (And Other Montreal Photos)

- June 1st, 2011 at 4:41 pm by --KALEB NATION-- -

Last week, I took a vacation to Montreal, Canada (as I oh-so-often do) after finishing the revisions on my Secret Project.

While there and desperate for anything to do other than what I’d done for the past 2 months (writing) we went to La Ronde, saw an amusing but intensely depressing movie, saw another movie, interrupted that movie for another movie, and even went on a safari with some Youtubers (RIPfilms and SongPidgeon). The girl in the portraits is the famous Ilana Zackon.

Obviously, I love taking photos when I travel. Now, you too can experience the joy of a 50mm f1.8 lens.

(The week away made all my work pile up — a vlog of the trip is coming soon!)
