We sometimes long for the glory days of the music video. Indeed, we can remember the days when MTV actually had music, and the days when every giant new album came out with a breathtaking music video to accompany it. This video restores our faith in the genre however. Hope you like it. (By the […]

Do Wops with Friends
It’s official. We want to have Jimmy Fallon’s life! This man gets to invite his heroes on the show, and then sing with them, dance with them, and make people laugh (often also cry) with them. It’s no accident. Jimmy clearly did the work to be ready for this, and then he delivers week after […]
Here’s Something You Don’t See Everyday
Todd Jones and Carston Bell certainly found the right thing to do with a great new tool. The folks at Teton Gravity Research thought they could show off their new product by demonstrating how much they love the San Francisco Bay Area. If you don’t find your breath taken away at least once, we think […]
Amazed Again
…I’ve been a fan of Animusic for some time. (Indeed, when I first discovered the animated music video series, I drove friends crazy by playing them over and over again.) Well here’s one I’d never seen before and it reminded me why I loved the originals so much. I seldom want to cheer at the […]
Where Do We (really) Belong
We have a standing rule here about length of the video. Generally, it has to be under 7 minutes long to be shown here unless you’re really fabulous. Someone was! This short film from Scott Thierauf takes us through an amazing adventure, and one that will be familiar to many of us. Who will we be […]
All By Myself (really)
Most of us have a secret wish. Only occasionally is it to be alone in an airport overnight. Richard Dunn did have that wish and he took full advantage of the opportunity. More of the story behind the making of this silly but impressive music video can be found in this article on Gawker. And […]
Moving On
New video from Ainslie Henderson. The single is “Moving On” by James, and the animation that accompanies it will knock your socks off!
Seriously, I Dig Your Chakra
For some of us, the cultural tone of yoga calls out. No matter what tho’ … it’s fun to fling the lingo. We dare you not to laugh (and especially not to chortle) as you meet – Yoga Girl! The creators of this piece were featured in our pages before. If you enjoyed this, jump […]
Invitation To a First Love
We love music over here and one of our inspirations has long been the one we’ve grown for singer/songwriter Nanci Griffith. This song (Ford Econoline) is one that challenges a singer, and delights both the singer and audience. Her interview with Suzy Bogguss reminds us of who she is as an artist — and it […]
Delicious – or Really Delicious
…we usually bring great online short film here, and we’ll continue to do so. But this week, we can’t resist sharing this gem from a one-of-a-kind 1974 radio broadcast in Houston. The video backing on this is just ordinary, but the treasure is the authenticity of the performance. Hope you dig it! Oh yeah. If […]
