My friend Allen Klosowski knows how much I love Michael Jackson, so he tweeted me a link to this video this morning and now I feel the need to share it through every possible social media channel. These two dudes, Stjepan Hauser and Luka Sulic, play Smooth Criminal in a epic cello battle. Definitely check this out!
I was searching Netflix earlier today for Trapped in the Closet (that’s a whole ‘nother story) when I noticed that The Expendables was listed on the same page as R.Kelly’s delightfully tacky “Hip-Hopera”. Either Netflix knows that I love fun trashy crap like this or it’s some wonderful coincidence.
I just saw this amazing White Stripes cover from Ben L’Oncle Soul. It’s definitely worth checking out. Sadly, embedding is disabled, but you can watch it on YouTube by clicking the picture or going here.
The latest My Chemical Romance video is up on Youtube now and it’s stunning. If this video was a dude, I’d marry it. Visually, I love the blue tone and the way the light overwhelms the frame at times. On the performance side, the guys do some acting and it’s more like a short film, telling a real story, than a music video. I have loved everything with this new record and I can’t wait until it comes out on the 22nd.
A long time ago, Michael Jackson got sued by some chick who claimed that he stole the song “Dangerous” from her. Of course, it was bollocks, but this is audio from the trial. If you needed any evidence as to how talented MJ was, just listen to him sing a capella on the stand!
