Wherever I Lay My Hat

Spintown News:
- Editing like crazy & sick as a dog...should be done by Sunday night or Monday night though.
- If you like the new graphics I'm using here at Spintown, check out AtomicUs 5000.
- Sorry for not posting Saturday. Got sick just before Thanksgiving, and Saturday I just chilled. Still sick, but a little better now. Really want to get better for work on Monday, because I felt like crap all day Wednesday & Friday at work.

Wherever I Lay My Hat
I didn't know the most famous mime in the world did another song besides 'Torn'.



Computer Friends
The Sniper Twins feat. Rob Collier put together a geeky music video.



Halo King
This guy is so good at Halo he had to make a music video about it.

I loved the first 2 'Groovy Dancing Girl' videos, but I didn't know her online name was Bandy Toaster, or that she had a You Tube channel with 2 more videos in the series.

You Tube Live Special

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Today I'm focusing on my favorite moments from You Tube Live.

PS: I moderate & approve all comments on this blog. Mostly because I try to keep people from spamming. So if you try to comment, and it doesn't appear right away it's just because your comment is awaiting my approval still. Negative comments will be approved as long as they have a point, and not just meant to be insulting. I also don't except many friends on MySpace, so if I deny a friend request don't take it personal.

Bo Burnham - Welcome To YouTube
The coolest white rapper ever has a new song.



Julia Nunes & The YouTube Ukulele Orchestra
You'll notice Wade Johnston is in the orchestra as well.



Beardyman
Beat boxing done right.

What I've Been Watching Lately

Today all my videos have to do with my favorite moments from movies or television. So if you're not into classic musicals I suggest you skip todays post.

Dean Martin & Nancy Sinatra - Things
Dean Martin is by far my favorite singer of all time. I don't really care for Nancy Sinatra too much, but I've always loved this duet.



Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis - Hey Punchinello
I never liked any of the movies Jerry Lewis did without Dean Martin. I don't think there's 1 that I didn't like when they worked together. Best comedic team ever...



Fascinatin' Rhythm from Lady Be Good (1941)
This is a classic routine that is broken up into 3 parts. The first part features Connie Russell, who's a fine singer, but not very impressive after watching the next 2 parts. The 3 Berry Brothers come in at 3:06 and have some jaw dropping moves. The routine they did earlier in the movie was equally jaw dropping, if not better, but I couldn't find it anywhere online. Eleanor Powell comes in at 4:52, and does one of the best numbers of her fine career. Starts off a little slow, but has a big finish. Watching movies like this makes me wish MGM was still making quality musicals.



Judy Holliday - It's A Perfect Relationship
I didn't like Judy Holliday as an actress, but as a singer no complaints.



Best Of The Rest:

1. I got a little teared up when I first saw this scene from 'An American Tail'. It's just too cute. CLICK HERE FOR Somewhere Out There

2. I always refer to Tony Martin as the other Martin. He definately holds his own in this short clip though. CLICK HERE FOR Music In My Heart

3. Here's a Jerry Lewis number from the first of the Martin & Lewis movies 'At War With The Army'. CLICK HERE FOR Send A Salami

Sex Ed Rocks

Spintown News:
Everyone hates waiting 20 seconds or a couple minutes before the entertaining part of an online video starts. So I'm going to start adding code to my embeds or direct links that will allow you to skip to the good stuff right away. If I'm rushed, or short on time you'll have to forgive me if I don't. Most of the time however I plan on doing this to make things easier on you guys. This blog isn't that fancy or popular, but I'm trying to keep it simple & easy to use for you guys.

Sex Ed Rocks
I wish I could have just played this video the last time I had to teach a sex education class.

Venetian Princess - Womanizer

Spintown News:
I featured Joel Cathey yesterday, and he just sent me a dance video to use in "Internet Dance 2". Probably the best submission I've had thus far. Looks like he had fun, totally new video just for this project, and of course he was entertaining. Thank you Joel & thank your dance partner as well.

Womanizer - Parody
Venetian Princess isn't one of my favorite You Tubers, but there's a reason I subscribe.



Don Ross
At first I thought I was getting ready to watch a Bob Ross video, so even though this guy rocks I was a little disappointed.



The Mighty Underdogs - Want You Back
I saw this music video on Epic Fu, and thought it was cool.



"Youtube Live" (Live Your Life parody)
Mr. Jumba is going to You Tube Live, and he celebrates with a short song.

Featuring: Joel Cathey

Spintown News:
I start editing 'Internet Dance 2' Friday. Hopefully I'll get a real good start on the video this weekend, then finish it by the end of next weekend. That's the plan at least.

Joel Cathey is someone Jack Conte recommended in his last vlog. I checked him out, and saw that he makes great videosongs much like Jack Conte & Nataly Dawn. So I instantly subscribed, and decided to feature him today. If he continues to make good music with cool videos, it won't be long before I add him to the list of 'Spintown All Stars' on the right.

Marie Digby original

Spintown News:
Got rejected for aide with my upcoming classes at Miami University. Apparently if you already have a B.S. it's tough to get any aide. To bad that first B.S. I got from them didn't help me get a decent paying job, or I could pay my own way up front. Doesn't help that I'm white & my parents made decent money.

Stop Me (This Time)
What's that? You want me to post a brand new Marie Digby original song? You don't have to tell me twice, enjoy.



Four Minutes, Hey!
Cool little parody video which is probably better then the original since this features a ukulele.



The Robot
I don't subscribe to edbassmaster, but I have to admit he can be pretty funny at times.



Super Mario Bassoon Quartet
I've been listening to Mario themes in my car the past week or so, if you're wondering why I've been posting so many Mario covers lately.

Bad Rap

Spintown News:
I 'And 1'ed' a few guys today on the basketball court. I don't want to mention their names, but I can't really help myself (Stephon, Todd & Brian). I might have to change my name to the Fat & Cripple Professor. Sorry, I know this isn't really noteworthy to anyone but me...and Stephon, Todd & Brian. :p

Rap Gone Terribly Wrong
This is a really funny skit about a rapper who has some strange lyrics.

Dream Pandas

Spintown News:
Got offered an assistant sports director job at a local YMCA yesterday. Turned it down because they didn't offer enough hours, and I've already got another job that is willing to work around my school schedule. I may hate my job, but at least the hours are flexible.

Dream Pandas
Lip syncing is always better when done in costume.



Whatever You Like: Cow Version
Well done parody, best cow related video I've seen today.



Lois Mahalia - Sunrise
I normally won't feature a political video, but will link to them in the Best Of The Rest. However this song doesn't really have to be political even though she's obviously an Obama supporter.

Custom LED Guitar

Spintown News:
Well after over a month an a half I finally went a day without posting. No reason other then I haven't had as much free time of late. You probably noticed I've been a bit short with some of my descriptions lately, and it's all because I'm short on time. On the weekend I'll probably always be able to post, but through the week I'll just have to do what I can when I can.

Custom LED Guitar
This is a really cool guitar, mad props.



YACHT - Summer Song

Double D Blues
Aunt Susan shows Kelly she isn't the only one who can sing in her family.



SUPERNOTE: RESULTS
This is basically the last Super Note update, giving you links to videos from the Super Note Live event. There should be a few more Super Note related videos still to come. For instance the final version of the Shay Carl theme song, and I would guess that Rhett & Link will do some sort of remix of the Super Notes.



Shaycarl Theme on SuperNote Live
Shay Carl was the winning captain in the Super Note contest. They actually start singing the song around the 6 minute mark if you want to skip right to it.

I thought the people who caught catfish with their bare hands were crazy because they could get bit by turtles or snakes. These guys make those guys look like relatively sane individuals. Normally this wouldn't exactly fit the theme of this blog, I mean there's no dancing & it's not really a music video. However the background music was perfectly selected, and it's my freakin' blog so if I want to break a rule I'll do it. :p

Drum Battle vs Jerry Lewis (1965)
This is more of a comedy routine then a drum battle, but worth watching.



Drum Battle vs Animal
This is one of my favorite clips from the Muppet Show.

This shows Buddy playing under some difficult circumstances, and Mel really showing off his scat skills.

Under The Bridge: Literal Video Version

You may notice I created a "Spintown All-Stars" list to the right. It's basically a list of people I get material for this blog from. So the next time you see me mention David Chio, Kina Grannis or etc..., and you get miffed because I didn't supply a link to their page or site, just look to the right. If it's someone I use a lot you'll find a link there. I also added a list of my favorite blogs/shows online. Sometimes I'll find something to post from those shows, but they are not sites dedicated to music or dance.

I love these literal videos, this one is a Red Hot Chili Peppers cover.



Rainbow Bellagio Fountain
I get a kick out of those simple fountains that make water jump from one platform to another, so this of course blew my mind.


Rainbow Bellagio Fountain - The most popular videos are a click away

The Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppets
Sock puppets doing a tribute to the late great Johnny Cash.



Sony Ericsson Walkman Usher Contest
Here's another music related contest going on at You Tube. Seems easy enough to enter, all you have to do is sing the Usher song "What's Your Name?"

Single Ladies Single Man Beyonce Mashup

I've got a pretty good post for you today, but first I'd like to mention a few things.
- First, I'd like to pat myself on the back a little. Did anyone notice I posted an update everyday during October!
- Second, it's getting close to the 1 year anniversary since I started this blog. Nov. 6, '07 was my first post, and things have changed a bit since then. I didn't really have much of a goal in mind, or much direction.
- The last thing I'd like to mention is that this blog will be getting another small upgrade. I've hired someone to make some graphics for the site. Not much, but a new header, logo, icon & maybe a few different banners. I haven't seen any of the guys work yet, so I don't know how it's going to turn out. This blog will remain very simple looking even after the new graphics. I don't like a lot of pointless eye candy on sites/blogs I visit, and advertising is even worse. So new graphics won't mean more, and since I do this for fun & not money I'll never have ads. (unless I start getting millions of hits each day, in which I reserve the right to be a sellout :p )

This guy was my lead video a few days back, it might have been the funniest video I had ever watched. I knew it was just a matter of time before someone did a mashup with the original music video. Enjoy.



Stand By Me - International Version
One of the best versions of 'Stand By Me' I have heard, and it's a really cool idea to boot.



Lip Sync Kid
This starts off a little slow, but just wait. This kid really gets into the song, and does a great job. One day I'm going to have to post a list of the top 10 lip sync videos of all time. I'm officially putting it on the to do list.
