This song is a vibe from 20-something artist Chrissy. Not only is she a singer, but she’s also a song-writer and social media starlet. Be on the look for this rising R&B star.

I really got lost just watching the video. It put my mind at ease for those few minutes from everything that’s going on in the world around us. That beautiful blue ocean, the waves and nature — so nice. And her vocals are relaxing, and the lyrics to the song are also on point, just what every man would like to hear I’m sure.

Dave Prowse, the Bristolian former bodybuilder best known for playing Darth Vader in the original Star Wars trilogy, has died aged 85.

Prowse was cast as Vader for his imposing physique, even though the role was voiced by James Earl Jones.

But the weightlifter-turned-actor was most proud of playing the Green Cross Code Man. The role, promoting road safety in the UK, earned him an MBE.

“May the force be with him, always!” said his agent Thomas Bowington.

“Though famous for playing many monsters – for myself, and all who knew Dave and worked with him, he was a hero in our lives.”

Mr. Bowington called the actor’s death, after a short illness, “a truly and deeply heart-wrenching loss for us and millions of fans all over the world”.

Mark Hamill, who played Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars movies, said he was “so sad” to hear the news.

“He was a kind man and much more than Darth Vader,” Hamill said on Twitter. “He loved his fans as much as they loved him.”
