sunrat Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Ok I confess, I listen to lots of music and watch lots of music videos, most of which don't quite fit the criteria for the Awesome Video thread. So here's a music video thread. I'll show you mine if you show me yours! Here's a couple that impressed me today: Alan Jackson,Jimmy Buffett - It's Five O' Clock Somewhere (love this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPCjC543llU Conduct Us: Improv Everywhere. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_cbnBak8RI Quote
sunrat Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 It's been a whole half an hour since I last posted here, but this one had to go up. It started me listening to lots of country music again after seeing it on Nu Country TV a few weeks ago, Darius Rucker - Wagon Wheel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvKyBcCDOB4 Quote

Gus K Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Do commercials count? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHrS_BonASA We also get to see Billy Gibbons' new, after market, ultra pearly whites. Quote
sunrat Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 Do commercials count? Not really but I'll allow it coz it's ZZ Top. Besides which I have no idea what they were advertising. We also get to see Billy Gibbons' new, after market, ultra pearly whites. I want some like that too! Quote
Gus K Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 http://www.jeremiahweed.com/ So does this one count? This was big during my HS years. White guys sounding black and aping Phil Spector's Wall of Sound. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlTPFERD8zs Is their name racist? Quote
sunrat Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 Sorry, Gus, sounds too pale for me, being more familiar with the Wilson Pickett version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AqHxTpTcq8 1 Quote
sunrat Posted October 3, 2013 Author Posted October 3, 2013 Music from a country not my own, not live human, but what a lovely voice! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBucCNH78q4 Quote

sunrat Posted October 3, 2013 Author Posted October 3, 2013 Nice and ballsy! I thought she must be related to Ann and Nancy, but no. Which reminds me of Heart doing Led Zeppelin in the presence of royalty (Page, Plant and Jones). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JK_DOJa99oo 1 Quote
Gus K Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Well I tend to think of Music Videos as mini productions, rather than captured live performances. The Euro Dance Music Vids are usually very slick and sexy without being vulgar like many American ones these days. Scooter (a German band ) has many slick, wacky Vids, many could not be posted here though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyOklpQq-nU Quote

sunrat Posted November 3, 2013 Author Posted November 3, 2013 Postmodern Jukebox - Call Me Maybe Great piano player! While we're on pop song covers, here's a great one of Gotye's Grammy winning Somebody That I Used To Know: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TS8DZxiPtMg Quote
abarbarian Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Ah ha covers. Here is an original and a cover. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHjKzr6tLz0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlOxdsTEF80 Quote
sunrat Posted November 3, 2013 Author Posted November 3, 2013 Eric Burdon and The Animals were one my favourite bands when I was a teenager. Unfortunately couldn't watch through the Nina Simone one as the audio sync was too far out. Ah ha covers. I'll see you and raise one A-Ha cover, Take On Me (Literal Version) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HE9OQ4FnkQ Quote
abarbarian Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Eric Burdon and The Animals were one my favourite bands when I was a teenager. I must be out of touch as I hardly know any of the tracks you folk are posting. I think Eric Burdon and the Animals were very underrated in their day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5IRI4oHKNU 1 Quote
sunrat Posted November 3, 2013 Author Posted November 3, 2013 the "take me on" video is one of my fav's - someone finding escape into another world of their dreams. Of course the one above was not the original music. Just a humorous lyrical satire of the video. The original won six MTV awards in 1986. Original version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djV11Xbc914 Quote
abarbarian Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 The original from 1966. Worth a watch for the comment from the presenter. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHuwVwKHfjM Same band same song performed in 2009 at Maxwells, Hoboken, New Jersey. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Stot_2-Lg6s Them were the days. 1 Quote
sunrat Posted November 4, 2013 Author Posted November 4, 2013 The Pretty Things played at the Corner Hotel where I work earlier this year and they were great. A band of 60 something kids still rocking out. Nice bunch of blokes too. 1 Quote
sunrat Posted November 28, 2013 Author Posted November 28, 2013 Just an old Christmas song but it moved me. I'm a sucker for voices of angels. Pentatonix - Little Drummer Boy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJ_MGWio-vc Quote
