Music Video Rec.

lurkingwombat finds the coolest stuff!

This is an actual music video from an Italian pop group (lyrics are in English), and seriously, it's like a four and a half minute version of a summer sci-fi blockbuster set to dance music.

And now I have to go ravage iTunes again...

Dude I know!! As someone commented, it is far above some movies made..lol

I know, it's like an update of Bladerunner, but with added Romeo and Juliet.

Exactly, except no one dies, which is a bonus..lol Now if someone would give them money to make this--even as a longer fan-based idea, that would be awesome:)

You know what happens in nine days? I get to see you! I am crossing off the days on my Sherlock calendar at work. This month is "get bored and shoot the wall." I don't think either of us suffer from that though:P

Not to derail the awesomeness of the original video, but wouldn't the song be great for a Doctor Who fanvid?

Eiffel 65 did Blue, didn't they? I liked that song too. :-)

[lurkingwombat.livejournal.com]

They did Blue as well as some other cool songs. I have both of their albums :)

[leoraine.livejournal.com]

Ha! I knew he was familiar to me:-) I loved Blue and Eiffel 65:-)

Wait for the gnomes swaying in time to the music :)

[caffienekitty]

I do have to sleep very soon, and you want to inflict swaying gnomes on me? XD

[lurkingwombat.livejournal.com]

Yep. Check it out. They are the gnomes with the white beards and red caps :)

[caffienekitty]

...okay, so the guy stole the king's deer, they're going to hang him with a rope of gold, he meets some swaying gnomes who make him dance, then he... lets the deer lose and turns one of the gnomes into Santa.

Weird.

Three-D printers have come a long way from the model making machines in the 90's. Moving parts and everything. That really does rock, and is a fantastic thing for remote locations of all kinds.

Oh man, tell me you've heard Janelle Monae (note: website autoplays music and video). She's like the queen of dance-able sci-fi. She's a hip-hop/funk artist with clear soul and rock influences whose whole shtick is a character named "Cindi Mayweather", an android who's fallen in love with a human and as such is sentenced to be decommissioned. . . .

"Tightrope" and "Many Moons" are the big singles (and fabulous), but you really have to check out the whole thing. It's the first concept album that I've really been able to pick out the plot of without a cheat sheet!

[caffienekitty]

Well I have now! "Many Moons" is very cool, love the little parallels to Metropolis, and was that seriously the Sesame Street counting song at the start?

[bellatemple]

You mean the "voodoo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo" bit? Quite possibly, I hadn't made the connection till just now, but she totally wears her influences on her sleeves.

She also mentions electric sheep in a few of her songs, and the Terminator. It's awesome.

[caffienekitty]

Yep, that's the bit. :-)

[leoraine.livejournal.com]

Oh, Wow! This was a movie all by itself! It had it all - a story, interesting actors, great effects and cool music! TY for the rec, now I'm off too to look up some more stuff from them:-)

[caffienekitty]

The production values are incredible too. I'm stlll quite amazed.
