DAVID FONSECA feat. RITA - "Hold Still", directed by David Fonseca and Augusto Brázio
David Fonseca is one of the great songwriters around, he's some kind of hidden treasure, the next-best-thing. His new video is made from hundreds of black and white photos, a simple idea that turned out to be incredible...one of the best videos I've seen in a long time, and the song is just amazing...go to his website to check it out www.davidfonseca.com. You can check David's other videos, "The 80's" looks great too!
it sucks - Video and song If this is the best video you´ve seen in a long time ,open your eyes and browse this website.

self promotion ... so lame
I really don't like the video,It's really boring in my opinion.And I turned the music way down for the length of time that I managed to watch it.To me the music sounds very tacky and josh groban-ey.
what´s so amazing ????? There are millions of videos like this ... And the song ? Amazing ???? come on !!! Are you his boyfriend or what?? Mr "hidden treasure" brings nothing new to music... or video ...
Personally, this is the greatest video I've ever seen. It involved many minutes of people walking slowly. Incredible!
It's just...not good. The voice is shudder inducing and there are hundreds of better versions of videos like this...I'm not being that harsh when I say there is nothing good about this song or video.
Look elsewhere for good filmmaking.
Please, people, go to his site and listen to the music 'The 80's'... it's very attractive and amazing! This guy is fantastic!!! :D
I think the video is amazing. The music is'nt for the best of the album Our Hearts Will Beat As One, but one of the bests. The album it's amazing, but if you have the oportunity to see him live, don't lose it!!! The concert it's simply wonderfull! (Sorry for my english).
we need a term for fake enthusiast on antville. dan here is taking it to a new level with the fake foreigner.
ok then.i challenge anyone to point out a better video made in the last year(perhaps 50 cent no?)...i have never seen this kind of idea been explored.about the the music i agree, its not a masterpiece but if you would made the effort to discover his albuns you'll be surprised and amazed.he's really a hidden treasure.oh and in this case im proud to be a "fake enthusiastic"!!
i'm also proud to be a "fake enthusiastic" of David's work. This vídeo is amazing and beautiful and so are the other ones. David Fonseca is one of the best portuguese sing songwriters. His voice is powerful and sweet. His lyrics are fabulous and full of deep feelings. His performance on stage is absolutely magic. Hey, people, try to know this artist better and then post your comments. If you don't like this kind of music, that's ok, but don't say stupid things about him: it's enough to say "i don't like", "i do not appreciate".
The post here is about the video and the song, if there is something to be loved or hated is the videoclip and the song, and not David's work.
The videoclip is okay, simple, not a 'jerk', without pretention of being a wonderful one...
It's a little pathetic that people keep fighting about impression that they have about videoclips. Some people are cheating on the one who thought that the music is wonderful and the videoclip is a great one. Other people are "defending" David Fonseca as if he needed some 'defense', as his music can't be criticized and put into prove.
do you really think that someone who only saw Hold Still in television will ever expect a song like Haunted Home or DYRBTLWKYFGH?? Television doesn't give space to songs that aren't comercial, but Hold Still is very comercial and easy listening, so, don't expect that this song will attract people beyond pretty and lovely and romantic girls.
what about this guy is portuguese, is one of the most popular artists in his country, and although he is portuguese he started to be recognised in europe??? how many portuguese singers do youy heard about in the last years?don't you thing that for a foreign person is very good to be recognised out of is country...ok the music may be not brilliant but the video and the two of them singing together made a very beautiful result!we in portugal are used to have all the english and american music you can imagine and nothing like this had passed in the last years!come on don't be so critical with the other's effort!
David Fonseca is GAY
Ok... thats enought... we can't do nothing with this type of guys... ohh, resident, are you the President Bush? Your senteses are so "wonderful" and... GAY!
