…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.
