"Even Heaven Cries" Video Review

"Even Heaven Cries" is a pop ballad written by Robbie Nevil, Lauren Evans, Philip Denker, Jonas Jeberg, and Jens Lumholt for Monrose's debut studio album Temptation (2006). It also was produced by Jeberg and released as the album's second single on March 2, 2007, while simultaneously being used as the band's competition song in the pre-selection show Deutscher Vorentscheid 2007, whose winner will go on to represent Germany in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007.

The live world premiere of "Even Heaven Cries" was performed by band member Mandy Capristo and Popstars finalists Katarzyna Zinkiewicz and Romina Reinhardt on the second last episode of the Popstars series on November 16, 2006. In the final episode of the show it was staged again but without being advertised as Monrose's second single.

While the song became one of the twenty most downloaded tracks of the German online music download portal Musicload, the band's official website started a poll on which album song should be next to be released. In January 2007 "Even Heaven Cries" had 47% of all votes, so it was chosen as the group's second single and re-recorded to get a better result than the under deadline pressure mixed album version. However, the final version of the song eventually premiered on the Popstars host television channel ProSieben's prime time boxing show ProSieben Fight Night on February 16, 2007.

The CD single will be released on March 2, 2007 and also feature two previously unreleased songs entitled "Diamonds and Pearls" and "Butt Butt".

The music video for "Even Heaven Cries" was shot in February 2007, and premiered on television officially on February 23 on the German music television channel VIVA but was not included into its music video rotation because Popstars host television channel ProSieben wanted to celebrate the official video premiere almost one week after it's first airing on March 1 on time with the start of Germany's Next Topmodel's second season.

One day before its release to music television the video was provided online on the website of German Popstars host television channel ProSieben, and was later ripped from there and leaked into the internet. The video shows Monrose in a flowery garden, Bahar Kızıl sitting on a swing while Senna Guemmour is standing in front of a cherry tree and Mandy Capristo is shown sitting on a bench. Scenes of two harrassed women and one father whose son smudged his apartment with yellow paint are cut in. They seem to despair but then the garden in which Monrose are placed turns out to be a glass globe that encourages the three tormented. The music video plays with two heavy contrasted worlds: On the one hand the glass globe which shows a goudy fairylike dreamland but on the other hand the grey, drab, depressing world where injustice and grief happens. However the video conveys what the song's lyrics say: There are always ups and downs in life you just have to be loyal to yourself and everything will become fine again, so enjoy Monrose - Even Heaven Cries video.
