This Too Shall Pass

So I'm a sucker for Ok Go's music videos. I love Here it Goes Again and A Million Ways to Be Cruel--my friends and I actually performed that dance. Yeah, we rocked. A while ago, I saw the Rube Goldberg machine version of their newest video, This Too Shall Pass released in March of 2010. Very cool, but the cause and effect visuals overshadowed the music and I didn't have a very distinct impression of the song. Well, today I saw their alternate music video done with the Notre Dame marching band. To borrow some phrasing from my friend DangGina: I. Love. It. To see the video go to Ok Go's YouTube channel. For an added bonus, you can see an interactive floor plan of the RGM version at okgo.net.

Single Ladies

The dancing in the music video to Beyonce's mega hit, Single Ladies, was inspired by a 1960's dance video choreographed by Bob Fosse. Apparently Beyonce has inspirational powers of her own. Of several parodies on YouTube, I think I like this one the best.
