I now feel like I understand your musical aesthetic, which is sort of what I was going for with the thread.

― Garri$on Kilo (Hurting 2), Saturday, 27 June 2009 05:09 (fifteen years ago)

It's a really good idea. I picked these in particular mostly because they're good live vids but thinking about it they also happen to be some of my favorite songs in general.

― ☺☻☺☻come on ppl now smile on u brother☺☻☺☻ (ENBB), Saturday, 27 June 2009 05:14 (fifteen years ago)

BTW the Bad Brains video is great.

yeah i could watch otis all night.

that cyclo clip i love not so much for the song -- which i like fine -- as the way it uses it to tell the story. you don't even have to know the context or the plot to understand the narrative there. i really love that movie.

OK this one because it's one of the best songs ever and the difference between Marc Almond in his leather gear and Jimmy Somerville in khakis cracks me up every time:

― ☺☻☺☻come on ppl now smile on u brother☺☻☺☻ (ENBB), Saturday, 27 June 2009 05:54 (fifteen years ago)

dang. That Monks clip, I never knew beyond the couple of Nuggets tracks. That was advanced. Since it seemed live, were they doing the female sounding backup vocals at the beginning?
