Meta pop music video

Great video by Weezer

… I love the warmth and acceptance of all the freaky YouTube miniceleb memes.

Weezer isn’t my favorite band, but the video? Good stuff. You’ve got afroninja, the leave Britney alone! kid, Miss Teen South Carolina, the shirt guy… and hugs all around.

To avoid turning into a cooking-only website… here’s a video demonstrating the GOP idea of “bipartisanship” and “compromise”

(even without the politics, it’s funny, and a machinima video worth checking out)

Another thing I wish I had thought of. I think ghostfinger’ll get a kick out of it.

Soft wha?

Overheard from some poolside speakers on my walk back home:

You’re listening to Kxxx, your home for the best in soft rock.

… Coming up: Amy Grant and Wilson Phillips!

Me: you keep using that word. I do no think it think what you think it mean.

I’m pretty sure the album version had lyrics

Amy, girlfriend, please do the rehab thing. Thanks! Sincerely, the management

Update: Boo. They took the video down. F-U, MTV.

Anyway, it was Amy Winehouse performing on some award show for MTV Europe and doing, uh, vocaleze. Basically singing phonemes in key with no clue as to what the lyrics should be.

If I wasn’t a fan before

Radiohead’s latest tactic of direct to consumer sales at whatever price the consumer wants to pay is genius on multiple levels. It’s a fantastic way to leverage their fame (and fame is the only thing major media labels are good at) while also treating their fans as partners instead of potential criminals. No DRM. No limited distribution through a crappy media player *cough* iTunes *cough*.

Just music. Direct to the fans from the artists. The way it should be.

Right on, boys.

Update: the album’s really good, yo. Give it a shot.

No, wait, I remember it now. Holy crap this is beyond the red zone of awful and, thus, awesome.

So a commercial comes on today for a new baseball game for some console. Graphics look great, yadda yadda… hey, wait a minute. What’s that song they’re using?

Breed by Nirvana.

Nirvana. In a commercial. For a video game.

May the gods smite you but good, Courtney. But. Good.
