Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 'History of Wooing Women' by cdza is Impressive

— July 28, 2012 — Pop Culture
The 'History of Wooing Women' video by cdza shows not only how music has evolved throughout the years since the 60s, but also how love songs aimed at women have changed. The video highlights some of the classics from your grandparents and parents' generations and contrasts it with the 1990s and 2000s music that has become increasingly cruder.

There is a definite pattern to the music. It starts out very motown-like and then moves to a jazzy theme, to a slower ballad, to rock and then straight to rap and hip-hop. The band moves at a quick speed and the lead singer keeps up well with the music. Overall, the video is pretty hysterical and incredibly well written and executed.
