I have to say thank you to Evelyn Spurlock for recommending this video to me!
This song is performed by Etan Salomon, who is also the lead vocalist of Tetish.
The animation (and, I’m going to guess, the direction) is credited to Glendon and Isabella, who are credited with directing over 11 other music videos as well.
Enjoy!
Welcome to the 60s!
No, actually, this video is from 2013 but, much like the song, it does a pretty good job of capturing the 60s aesthetic.
Enjoy!
I don’t really have much to say about this video, other than it’s Swedish House Mafia so I love it. If it makes you want to dance, then it’s done its job.
Enjoy!
Prendre plaisir!
Long before Jon Watts directed Spider-Man: Homecoming, he directed another film about some unlikely super heroes. The video for Swedish House Mafia’s Save The World shows us that the world is a dangerous place but it also encourages us to fear not. The dogs are here!
Normally, I’m not really a dog person but I make an exception for the dogs in this video. To be honest, cats probably wouldn’t make very good superheroes. For one thing, all the villains would have to do would be schedule their nefarious schemes for whenever Supercat is taking a nap. Add to that, cats are pretty self-centered. That’s one reason why I love them but, at the same time, it’s doubtful they’d go out of their way to save a bunch of strangers.
Enjoy!
Hell yeah!
Enjoy!
Today’s music video of the day is Tess Roby’s Catalyst. This video is a mood piece, one that is can either be beautiful or ominous depending upon the mood of the viewer.
Enjoy!
I’ve learned from personal experience that you have to be careful singing this song in front of certain company.
This video was directed by the amazingly prolific Sophie Muller, who — as of this writing — is credited with directing 230 videos. She directed her first video way back in 1987 and is still working to this day.
Enjoy!
A few weeks ago, I did a google search for the world’s strangest music video. The results were largely made up of listicles, the majority of which had headlines like, “These Music Videos Are Messed Up and They’re Glorious” or “These 12 Strange Music Videos Are Everything.”
Bleh. I hate clickbait headlines.
But still, I went ahead and checked out a few of the articles and I noticed that almost all of them mentioned a 1997 video that was made for a cover of Hooked on a Feeling performed by David Hasselhoff. So, I went to YouTube and I watched the video and yeah, it was pretty weird. Like a lot of things involving Hasselhoff, it’s hard to tell if it was meant to be taken seriously or if the video was in on the joke.
Anyway, enjoy!
Today’s music video of the day is the just-released video for Call My Name by Priest. This song is taken from Priest’s latest album, New Flesh.
Reading the comments on YouTube, it would appear that several people are of the opinion that this video has a Girl With The Dragon Tattoo feel to it. Myself, I’d say that this video has more in common with David Cronenberg than David Fincher. I mean, just the title of the album brings to mind Cronenberg’s Videodrome.
That said, I have to admit that, for me, the imagery in the video mostly brought to mind Jean Rollin’s 1970 film, The Nude Vampire.
Jean Rollin’s The Nude Vampire
As anyone who has regularly read this site over the years can tell you, reminding me of a Jean Rollin film is always a good thing.
Enjoy!
