Music videos
So I spent about 4 hours yesterday lesson planning for my 6-hour intensive today. But it turns out he mostly wanted conversation, contrary to what I was told, so I only used about a quarter of what I prepared. It was a good lesson, but still.
Then I lost another button off my cardigan.
My headphones partially broke a couple days ago, and I haven't been able to find a good pair for under $50. So I'm just listening through one ear until I can have my parents send me some.
Aaaand our internet has been stupidly slow for like 2 weeks now.
Thus I am in a very fuck-you-Prague mood, and have decided to completely waste my evening.
I'm sure this will result in many pointless LJ posts.
The first - Awesome Music Videos!
I've probably posted some of these before, but whatever. If people know they've shown me videos that I loved and forgot to put on here, please feel free to comment with them. Or show me new ones. Join me in my quest to petulantly shirk all responsibility!
I always think that everyone has seen these, but am frequently surprised to find they haven't.
Coldplay - The Scientist
Sigur Ros - Glosoli
This is the video Rob and I saw in Myanmar! Or possibly India. They blur.
Untitled #1 and viðrar vel til loftárása are both wonderfully messed.

Brand New - Sic Transit Gloria (Glory Fades)
Ok Go - Million Ways, Here It Goes Again, Do What You Want

What can I say, they make fucking awesome videos. Invincible's not bad either.
Micheal Buble - Feeling Good
Dresden Dolls - Coin-Operated Boy, Girl Anachronism

Daniel Powter - Bad Day
From Chien.
Kings of Convenience - I'd rather dance with you
Sondre Lerche - Two Way Monologue
Fantastic Plastic Machine - don't you know
And my favorite Call On Me parodies. Has anyone counted to verify that this is, in fact, the most parodied video on YouTube?
They cheated and had two girls, for shame. Best overall though.
First one I saw, and the best beefcake.
Possibly the most accurate in both moves and spirit (until the end).
These guys suck at the actual dancing part, but it amuses me that they did it in public. Often, apparently.

Straylight Run - Existentialism on Prom Night
Aereogramme - Barriers
From Tracy (below)
Kwoon - I lived on the moon
I'm such a sap for music videos that tell a story. And this one actually uses some of the lyrics and matches the music! ::heart::
The beginning reminds me of the fantastic animation at the end of A Series of Unfortunate Events (the movie of course).

Umbrella - Rihanna
Umbrella - Vanilla Sky
And one for my Rocky peoples.
