I Blame James Woods
Two pieces of music history...
So... Who remembers Crazytown?
And *that* Another Level song.
The series of events that led me to these is so odd I thought I'd share it. It began with me looking up James Woods after watching an episode of Family Guy, and as I was poking around on Wikipedia I discovered that he was the voice of Hades in the Disney Hercules movie. After looking up the Hercules movie itself (I was looking for Hades clips, unfortunately there weren't any), I found out that the main animation guy also contributed to that fucked up Pink Floyd video - so in turn I looked it up on YouTube. After that, I was musing over other animated rock videos, and remembered Korn's "Freak on a Leash" with all the Todd MacFarlane stuff in it. This gave me a general craving to look up all those crappy late 90's Nu-Metal bands that were overplayed on MTV2 - I found Limp Bizkit (man Rollin is a funny song), and Linkin Park (and I still don't understand the flying whales). Then I remembered Video 1, and how important it was to an entire years worth of sexually curious teenagers. Which led me to Video 2.
On an unrelated note, searching for James Woods also ended up with me watching Gwen Stefani perform Hollaback Girl at the 2005 teen choice awards. If you can work out the logical train of thought that led me there (believe me, there is one), you will go up in my esteem.
The internet is a strange thing.
