Sky Ferreira at Hilfiger Denim Live Amsterdam


Sky Ferreira is part of the Hilfiger Denim "Kids Of America" campaign. Once again Hilfiger Denim live was held in Amsterdam, so she was one the artists performing. As a fan, I couldn't let the chance to actually see her perform slip. So on Thursday me and my friend took the train to Amsterdam. With a huge delay(damn you NS) we finally arrived at Paradiso Amsterdam around 10.30. Still on time to see Sky, for she would be performing at 1.15.

She started with Traces from her upcoming EP "As If!". After that 17, then another song from the EP called "108"(see video below). Then she decided to sing acapella because there wasn't a track and she didn't have a keyboard. She covered Christina Aquilera's "You Lost Me". She ended her performance with One. I have to say, I was amazed by her vocals, her voice is really good. You have to hear her live because her amazing voice just can't be recorded.

We were even able to take a picture with her.

And you could get your picture taken in style of the Hilfiger Denim campaign.



Thanks to Sky I've had one of the best nights of my life. I really hope she'll be able to come back to The Netherlands one day.

Her debut EP "As If!" will be available in the US on iTunes March 22!

Stepping outside

I'm the kind of person that when it's weekend doesn't leave the house. I've had a whole week of school and being busy and feel as if my head is going to explode. So those two days off I like to spend by myself. Now and then I go to see a friend ofcourse, but I just need my rest now and then.
It's winter, the weather's cold, so I keep to my warm house. But now there's change in weather. The clouds are breaking and the sun is starting to get through. It's still February, but somewhere in the distance, I can see spring coming closer. And after spring, there'll be summer.
I am so looking forward to the summer, I can't even express in words how much.
But well, I'm getting ahead of myself. Summer is still a long way to go. What I'm trying to say is, the sun was shining today, the sky was blue...
I went for a walk in the park.
