Cassie - "Is It You" (Official Music Video)

Ever since this song leaked onto the radio last summer, I've always thought that it was really good. And now, after hearing the video version (or video edit version of the song; or whatever you guys want to call it), it makes me like the song even more. I just love the piano intro.

Also, since this song is featured on the new upcoming movie Step Up 2: The Streets, the music video of course includes movie clips (as do all songs featured on movie soundtracks). I know Cassie is in the movie playing the role of a young dancer name Sophie and you could kind of tell that she'll be the popular/bitchy-type character (obviously not the main girl who gets the guy at the end).

I don't know if it's the nice piano intro, or the choice of video clips selected particularly for her character, or Cassie's way of singing the song as a sad-like but honest perspective on her side of this very typical and almost cliched story (where you often find leading characters having conflicts with one another but then ultimately become friends at the end), this video just makes me empathize with Cassie's character, especially at the one part wear she simply glances over and sees the guy and knows that she is already losing him. The movie does look interesting, and i may possibly watch it out of curiosity. =)

The song rocks and the video looks good.

So here's her new video...

*Enjoy.
