Video: Frank Ocean Previews New Song "Summer Remains"

With his right hand to God, left hand holding the jewels, Frank Ocean debuts a work in progress tentatively titled "Summer Remains." In a possible nod to youtube piano covers, Ocean documents his first stab at the new composition--chords somehow reminiscent of Prince/Sinead O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U," modified with Frank's distinctive mix of vulnerability and attitude--in a demo tape/home movie style and signs off with "just at home f**kin around, no judging." I am gonna ignore those instructions straight from the door and judge it to be potentially pretty dope. Find a screencap of the lyrics-sheet at Ocean's tumblr.
