…and watch this.
I don’t usually just post videos (not unless there’s a bloody good reason at least), but this video from OK GO is fantastic.
Yes, it’s totally inspired by that Honda advert, however – true to the ‘take-it-and-make-it-better’ generation we all live in – the guys really do build on what’s gone before to make this an utter delight to watch.
Enjoy.
Thanks to Matt Singley for the heads-up.
It is a fun video and I like the time flip at the end as well.
Holy shitsticks! This doesn’t *build* on the Honda ad, it drops two F16 loads of napalm on it. Thanks for posting it.
That is awesome – wish the chaos of my life was choreographed to music that well.
Important to note that the Honda “Cog” advert is a rip off –
@MsJen I lol’d at least three times and I’m still grinning.
@Rupert You’re welcome.
@Stewart The paint at the end is a winner.
@Terence You can’t say that and *not* link to what you mean!
Hmmm. Not sure. I know that Berocca ripped off their running machine video (http://ciarannorris.co.uk/2008/05/17/berocca-ad-inspired-by-ok-go-and-other-notable-copies/) but why do this one?
Especially when it’s already been done so well already. Twice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Slh03uk88Ko & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQXpNGcERSw (I know the Pot Noodle one’s a Guinness spoof but there’s more than a bit of Honda in it too)
I watched it 5 times this morning. Don’t tell my employer.
Really good one! Thx for posting!
OK, where’s the cut? And the splice?
Also, 3M views in 3 days? Holy Guacamole.
And another thing…lovely tune.
Maximum awesome points for bringing this to my attention.
I saw this vid on MTV but it was a poor quality vid but anyhow the song is great.
