MusicDishTV: Festival - Valentine

The lead-off video from Festival's debut album on Language of Stone. www.funwithfestival.com

"'Valentine' is a song that is highly infectious with a video that is very entertaining. There is a lot going on here - a church service, a classroom lecture, suntanning, and general restlessness. While it's hard to say what the meaning behind this is, you can't help but be amused and strangely satisfied while viewing." - MusicDishTV

MusicDishTV is more than an online video channel; it is the place to find out what's happening in the music world and hear brilliant new talent before they hit the radio airwaves. Artists & bands can submit their videos at http://tv.musicdish.net.
