Either way, I should go to bed! And so should you! No, I don't care if you just woke up and it's now 11 AM. Go back to bed. It's the summer and you have no business being awake. EVIL STARE.
Here's some random stuff:
This one's an oldie, but a goodie. It is seriously hilarious. KIDS THESE DAYS. With their being werewolves and everything.
As detailed in my last post, sort of, I'm obsessed with all things Auto-Tune the News right now, including this adorable song. It's so catchy and adorable and you just have to love it! OR ELSE.
You may or may not have heard that Arcade Fire's concert last night was streamed LIVE on YouTube. Well, it was. It was really cool! I guess flashing lights and good camera angles can make anything seem epic, but these guys are the preeminent makers of epic-sounding music today, maybe. What do I know? Anyone who saw Where the Wild Things Are knows this song, "Wake Up," from that amazing trailer that was almost better than the movie itself (and I mean, it was a good movie, so), and while the quality of this isn't so good, it's something. This was the last song they played yesterday. You can download it here if you want to. If you don't, that's a'ight, that's a'ight. But I love this song.
Pull a lever or whatevah, right now, right now! (I rule at this level. SOULJA BOY TELL 'EM. ...what was that I don't even know~)
Collected random links:
Again, "Wake Up" by Arcade Fire. In case you didn't feel like reading that part before.
An article I read awhile ago about Joaquin Phoenix's documentary about his pathetic descent into insanity
Jerry Saltz's recap for Wednesday's Work of Art. Seriously, WHY PEREGRINE OVER NICOLE?!? My sister and I were screaming. You would have been scared.
I'm taking the weekend off again. You know. PARTYIN'. (Or, um, sleeping in or something.) See you Monday.
I like the idea of calling my posts "Today In," but I don't want things to get repetitive. So I changed "today" to "this day" because for some reason I thought that was better!
Anyway, here are some videos that I've been watching lately. Mind you, I don't really watch videos that often, so the selection is kind of slim pickin's. (Do people use that phrase? I feel a little strange using it.)
Trololololo
This is a popular meme, and for good reason. It's really funny. Also, the song is so catchy; it's always stuck in my head. ALWAYS. ._. I think the best part of this is his face when he's singing. I'm pretty sure he's lip-syncing, because his mouth doesn't move at ALL. AT ALL! Watch it! It won't move!
Pacey was the best character in Dawson's Creek, hands down, even if he was a little frightening and was the one that I'd vote "Most Likely to Murder the Other Characters in Their Sleep." So it wouldn't surprise me if there actually WAS a Pacey-Con. Sadly, there isn't, but Joshua Jackson tries his darnedest to start one. We should get this guy in some comedies. He has the "Clueless Egotist" part down pat.
30 Rock, Therapy with Jack and Tracy
An oldie but a goodie. This is the single greatest scene from 30 Rock. It's from the episode "Rosemary's Baby," which is in season 2 (the single greatest season of 30 Rock :D). The episode is pretty forgettable until you get to this scene. It cements the already-obvious fact that JACK DONAGHY IS ONE OF THE GREATEST CHARACTERS IN TV HISTORY. EVER.
Justin Bieber in "The Great Escape"
That's my title for it, at least. Basically Biebs tries to flee from a mob of pubescent girls with raging hormones who are willing to do absolutely anything for him on a Segway. Is it just me or does J. Biebs have some funky priorities? He's willing to call some chick who doesn't even like him, apparently, his "baby, baby, baby, ooh" and tell her "one time that [he] loves [her]" but then when he actually meets girls that are interested in him, he flees! Makes you wonder.
"World News" by Local Natives
This is one of my favorite songs on their album, Gorilla Manor. Well, actually, I like all of the songs. "Cards and Quarters" and "Cubism Dream" are my least favorites, but even those I like. Anyway, this is one really, really weird video! But watching that little kid lip-sync to the song is enjoyable.
Auto-Tune the News: Bed Intruder Song
I LOVE Auto-Tune the News. Every episode of it is just awesome. (I think I'm going to rank the episodes some time. Just because I can.) Anyway, apparently this video of a guy being interviewed about some local rapist is making its rounds, and the Auto Tune the News guys (and girl) did their take on it. Obviously, it's amazing. SO CATCHY. "Hide your kids, hide your wife! Hide your kids, hide your wife!"
"Kiss" by Sandara Park Cover
Don't know who Sandara Park is? WHO CARES? This song is SERIOUSLY catchy. This is a cover that my friend did. She does dubs of different J-Pop/K-Pop, etc. songs on YouTube, so you should check out her other stuff! I JUST WANNA KISS I NEVER WANNA MISS~
So, those are my video recommendations for the day. Take them with a grain of salt because, honestly, what do I know? (Although if you don't even so much as grin at the 30 Rock video, I'd venture a guess that you have no soul.)
