Songs I Listen to Because of the Awesome Music Video:

Here's a list (I don't know if for me or you) of Songs I Listen to Because of the Awesome Music Video. Keep in mind, not all were music videos, some were videos with these in the background. Also, I don't actually like all these songs (I'll let you guess which ones), they just have awesome videos.

So in no particular order (reverse "play count" in iTunes), Songs I Listen to Because of the Awesome Music Video: (Some didn't allow embedding, sorry.)

Rhett & Link

Rhett & Link make pretty funny songs. Here are two, the Firework Song (my favorite) and The Facebook Song (which sums up why I dislike Facebook).

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour

Guess where I discovered the band I listened to on repeat all day long today?
An Apple iPod Touch ad, the most recent one.

It's a band called The Asteroids Galaxy Tour.

The only song I've listened to so far is the iPod ad song, "Around the Bend."
It's a fun, catchy song, you should listen to it:



I looked and looked, but I couldn't find the lyrics so I stumbled through and tried to make them out, so here's as close as I have gotten:

Update: I think Justin's lyrics (see comment) are much more accurate.

? around waste another mile now
mark around waste another mile now
you feel the need there is no way to return
you feel the need you feel the need yea it burns
what a ride hot love of ?
yea yea
give me that thing give it up my friend give me good times around the bend i'll stay forever
give me that thing give it up my friend give me hot hot love around the bend i'll stay forever with you
lay down on that is long
whistle
lay me down to whatever brake of dawn
you feel the heat there is noway to return
you feel the need oh yea it burns
take a prune love can be your outpour
yea yea
give me that thing give it up my friend give me good times around the bend i'll stay forever
give me that thing give it up my friend give me hot hot love around the bend i'll stay forever with you
give me that thing give it up my friend give me good times around the bend i'll stay forever
give me that thing give it up my friend give me hot hot love around the bend i'll stay forever with you
Tell me ? Ill stay forever with you
Give me love ? my friend
round the bend
hot hot love

I, know it's pathetic, but it's a start.

I Hate Record Companies

I Hate Record Companies.

Since I don't like redoing what others have already done, this explains everything:

Accordions

On a side note, why does everyone hate the accordions so much?

SeeqPod

In line with Moody, which I just blogged about, is SeeqPod; an online music player/finder with playlist creation and blog embedding. (As demonstrated below.)

Moody

Moody is a tagger for your iTunes library. It lets you rate songs based on mood so you can listen to whatever you are in the mood for at any given time.

I tried it a while back, but tagging my thousands of songs was too daunting a chore for me to face, so I gave up on it.

Today, in Google Reader, I noticed Moody again. Remembering it I barely glanced at it but when I did I noticed it said now with auto-tagging. Yea.

Looking at it further, I saw that it also had an online music player that used SeeqPod with the mood-finder.

Look at it. Use it. It's great (especially since it doesn't work very well with Internet Explorer).

Ice Cream Song



Fast Food Song



Belly Button Song



I'm a Gummy Bear



Peanut Butter Jelly Time



The Element Song



The Campfire Song



Pizza



Witch Doctor



The Water Buffalo Song

Numa

I've run across this Numa Numa again and have yet again become addicted to the song. In looking deeper, I found a Google Current video on the subject and thought it was so great I should share it. (So I am.)

Take note of the montage at the end:

So great.

P.S. The American Idol version is good too.

Get Songs off of YouTube


Have you uploaded a movie to YouTube and then lost your copy of the song?

If not then this is probably illegal (I wouldn't know, I haven't studied law).

1. Find the song you lost.

2. Copy the URL from the address bar.

3. Open TubeTV.

4. Paste the link into the Address bar.

5. Push the "save" icon.

6. Once the file has downloaded, open the file in Quicktime Pro (with Perian installed of course).

7. Export the video as an aif.

8. Open the exported file with Switch.

9. Select the mp3 (or whatever you want) option, the location to save the file and click convert.

10. That's it!

(For the Applications mentioned, refer to previous posts.)
