Three Things To Remember
As long as you’re dancing, you can
break the rules.
Sometimes breaking the rules is just
extending the rules.
Sometimes there are no rules.
— Mary Oliver

Muscle Music
Terry Crews as a one man band…twitching his muscles to play the instruments:
Old Spice Muscle Music from Terry Crews on Vimeo. (If you can’t see the video click through to the post)
The initial video is crazy enough…but after it finishes…you can “play” Terry’s muscles with your keyboard.

Cut the World [Video]
Antony and the Johnsons – Cut the World.
Originally composed for Robert Wilson’s play “The Life and Death of Marina Abramović. (From Wikipedia: Abramović’s work explores the relationship between performer and audience, the limits of the body, and the possibilities of the mind.)
Haunting, melancholy, bleak to say the least.
Also beautiful (as Antony’s songs often are).

Every Single Night
New from Fiona Apple from her upcoming album:
Looking forward to hearing more of the album (and a little sad I never made it to the Watkin’s Family Hour or a Jon Brion night at Largo at the Coronet in LA to see her live).

Dawned On Me
This has been going around a bit already, but I think its cool and feel like sharing it here:
The video was made with the studio that produced the old Popeye cartoons and is the first new Popeye cartoon in more than 30 years.
