UNKLE – Rabbit in Your Headlights
What a wonderful video. Best Crescendo ever!
NightBus – When the Night Comes
Asaf Avidan’s Different Pulses

That is the decision that I have made.
Sweet little stories about falling in love and pretending to be stronger than you are and then:
I was younger and thought that
I didn’t have to care about anything
Now I am older and I know that I should
POW right in my heart! I bought their album Talon Of The Hawk
BTW – they also did a really adorable NPR Tiny Desk Concert:
Music Video: Califone’s “Stitches” – a self generating music video
The music leaves me cold, but I dig how Califone makes their video for stitches from a set of curated tumblr blogs.
This is similar to what I did with a self illustrating short story.
