Much/Most of the video is in Italian but the music in the background rocks coz.... IT'S MEEEEEE! :-) It's worth watching the whole thing.
I didnt watch the entire interview coz I HATE hearing myself speak. So leave comments and lemme know how it went...if it's bad, no need to say anything! :)

Where's the house music video channel?
How come there's no music video channel that features house music in America?
There was a time when there was, at least, a house music segment on some
channels but now, sheesh! One is hard-pressed to find house music that isn't
fostered by pop stars.
What the dealio?
......and now.... the links..... hehehehehe!
Boy, what I wouldn't give to see some current videos by Ultra Nate GIVE IT 2 U, Barbara Tucker ONE DESIRE , or Ron Carrol What a Wonderful World from time
to time without having to be in a club, bar, or in Europe to do so!...
Or even some classics...... Inaya Day Inaya Day Medly of Hits, Crystal Waters What I Need, or Duane Harden You Don't KNow Me .
Help me! I thirst! Whadawegottado, yawl? Sheesh! Inaya NY-O-DAE MUSIC www.InayaDay.com GET INAYA'S MUSIC HERE: http://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/inaya-day/id14749225

Inaya takes on the piano bar at the Monster in New york City w/Billy on keys
Some of you may, (or may not), know that I'm a Musical Theater baby. So, I dropped into the MONSTER (THE MONSTER NYC) last Sunday and wound up singing 3 songs at the piano bar with
Billy the boys. :-)
Needless to say, vodka is NOT a memory serum so I forgot many of the words and stumbled over what was to come next.
Billy, the pianist, is the best. He mouthed the words to me while I belted out,
"HOME, ONE NIGHT ONLY, & AND I AM TELLING YOU" as if thecheck was in the mail!
:-D
You Wanna hear it?

Mike Cruz produces Inaya Day & Chyna Ro (TV star, Tichina Arnold)
YUP!
It's been 10 whole years since I made MOVIN UP (Take My Problems To The Dancefloor), now a club classic,
with my good friends Chyna Ro and Mike Cruz, so we thought it befitting to celebrate with yet another tune together.
This song, LOOKING FORWARD,
penned by Chyna Ro, (Tichina Arnold of "Martin" & "Everybody Hates Chris"), is a duet like the 1st, and is a true follow-up to it's predecessor.
You can have a listen to our first tune, MOVIN UP, by clicking the link below.

I looked like some kinda alien onstage,,,glowing in the dark and things......LOVED IT!
I sang, NASTY GIRL, DO THE RIGHT THING, HORNY, LIFT IT UP, AND MOVIN UP.
The crowd was awesome and muy attentive!
Special thanks to JD, Kini, Surrein (sp), Charles, Chris, and Carlos!
Happy turkey day, yawl!

FEELIN FEELIN
Right, so, I've recorded a song called FEELIN FEELIN with Sting International.
It's absolutely dope, if I must say so myself. :-)
Thing is, It's been about a year and half and we haven't released it yet.
It's almost like when your grandmother keeps plastic over the furniture in the Living Room and you can't go in there. It's only for visitors!
Well, if you wanna hear this joint, you gotta be wherever Sting International spins,,, coz he's the ONLY one who has it!
Clever chap , ain't he!
I think we're gearing up for the unveiling soon, though.
But, until then, watch this video and listen to the crowd go wild over this track at Coney Island.
It's gonna give you the FEELIN FEELIN, too!

the BEGINNING
Ok so, about a year ago during the ADE, (Amsterdam Dance Event), I was chillin' with Duane Harden and Crystal Waters after a night out.
Duane let me hear this track on his laptop an asked if I thought I could come up with something for it.
I said, "but of courrrse". :-)
Duane emails the track to me, I write to it, and voila! A year later, we have
The Beginning By Inaya Day & David Esse.
check it out! you can listen and then grab it from the link below.

HIGHER PLACE
Well,
Paris and I decided to go to South street seaport and fiddle around with the HD cam.
He danced, I sang,,,, well, did the lip sync thing :-)
Our crazy butts were out there at 7am dancin' around like jack-rabbits!
People were trying to peacefully do their Thai chi thing and we're making noise like we're at The Village Underground on a Friday night!
Have a look at the link and see what comes out of a restless duo during the wee hours of the morning! hehehehehe
