Boo!

Nothing bums me out more (ok, a few things do, but they're pretty bad) than realizing that some of the lovely YouTube experiences I've posted here over the months are no longer available on YouTube. Thus, when you visit the older posts, you can't really see what I'm snarking at. As much as I like to snark, I have to admit that it's an anticlimactic experience to not get the video that accompanies it. Dear readers, for this reason, I will do my best to try to relocate in the coming weeks some of the old footage I've already posted, as well as keep the fresh content coming.

Here's a little nugget to tied you over for now, a live version of "Box Full o' Honey", one of my favorite Red Carpet Massacre tracks, but arguably one of the worst LeBon titles on record.

Tv. Vs. Radio. Vs. YouTube.

I really love this song, and I still think it's a shame that it wasn't on Astronaut. I've referenced Teknosapian before as one hell of a video maker, and he delivers here yet again.

Puttin' on the HitZ.

It's lip sync day! And a day of many videos, since I have been so remiss in posting lately.

First, I must be so late to the party that I'm stuck cleaning up empty wine glasses, but apparently there was a Duran-sponsored lip sync contest back in January. Here was the winner:



Then we have a classic Duran lip sync performance, which has Simon launching the microphone into oblivion at about 3:53 as a slap in the face to all who think lip syncing must be in any way realistic (including JT, who finds Si a new mic, but sacrifices his own bass sync performance to do it):



It all just makes me long for the days of Puttin' on the Hits. How were Alan Fawcett's teeth so white, before whitening was invented??
