A few weekends ago, I spent hours watching music videos on YouTube. Honestly, without a user-driven site like YouTube you would never see some of these videos in the wild. Especially girl groups like FuzzBox (We’ve got a Fuzzbox and we’re gonna use it), which I was unfamiliar with and found interesting from a cultural history perspective.
I like YouTube, but you have to wade through a ton of narcissistic teenage camwh*ring to get to the good stuff. Video sharing sites are irresistable to teenage human peacocks.
I found this video, which I really like for two reasons. Number one, it’s a great song by a great band from the 1980’s. Number two, the background video to the song uses nature film footage as well as whimsical animation techniques. Bon appetit!
