Pain For Laughs 21

Spintown News:
I know I disappeared for awhile, but I'm back. My ninja training will have to wait for now, because I missed blogging. Anyways I've got a lot of catching up to do around here, so I'll be posting larger posts until I do get caught up. 7 features vs the typical 4 & 10 'Best Of The Rest' videos vs the standard 7.

The first thing I want to mention is the Round 2 results from Song Fu 3. In the first round my picks were all winners, but this time I was shocked. Hank Green won easy, and he should have. But Molly Lewis who won the first round came up with what I thought was a stinker of a song, yet she finished in 2nd? I don't know why or how, but people voted for her. Below are the top 7 vote getters, of which I only picked 3 correctly (those are in bold). I picked Mick Bordet & Insane Ian in my top 5. They finished 8th & 11th in this round.

1. *Hank Green - "I Know" (43.0%, 524 Votes)
2. Molly Lewis - "Peep Fight" (30.0%, 361 Votes)
3. Crabbydad - "Machine" (28.0%, 333 Votes)
4. *Mike Lombardo - "Sandwich Girl (Lunchtime Lovestory)" (22.0%, 270 Votes)
5. *Edric Haleen - "Extreme Mad-Libs (Song Fu Edition)" (18.0%, 221 Votes)
6. Jeff MacDougall - "Free Love" (13.0%, 159 Votes)
7. Joe "Covenant" Lamb - "I Wish I Could Tell You I Love You" (12.0%, 143 Votes)

The Round 3 Challenge has been revealed as well:
"For your third challenge, you have to write a song with the title “It All Makes Sense At The End”. You can interpret what song would be given that title in any way you see fit. Your song must run no shorter than 1 minute 45 seconds."
This doesn't sound as cool as the challenges in Round 1 or 2, but we'll see what these songwriters come up with.

In case anyone has forgot...


Another thing I'd like to mention before I get to the features is that I was in the very 1st brentalfloss Hall Of Awesome. Not only that, but I just missed top billing. I think I can speak for everyone here at Spintown when I say screw angryrobotwear.com CLICK HERE FOR Hall Of Awesome

I don't actually read very many blogs, but there's a few I almost always read. One such blog is the Jonathan Coulton blog. He made some keen observations about the future of the music industry in a recent post I suggest you take a look at. CLICK HERE FOR Payday

I'll finish the news with a few words of wisdom, then you can get to the videos.
"This is the thing about the new landscape that drives everyone crazy: you can’t see inside the cow; you can only build one, feed it music, and wait for it to poop." - JOCO

Pain For Laughs 21
If you didn't know how flexible my 'deadlines' could be you should now. The video is very late, but hopefully you like it. This might be the first ownage montage that has ever had 2 original songs written just to be used in it. I stuck with a rollerblades & skateboard theme throughout the video. If you would like to write an original song for my next "Pain For Laughs" video, just get in touch with me via Twitter or YouTube. The video has been uploaded to multiple sites already, so if the embed stops working for whatever reason, just check out one of the links below it.

A rap video featuring Mario, Link & Megaman.



Numa Numa Guy with Gecko

No Nano?
There's some backstory behind this video, which can be cleared up by watching THIS 'sxephil' video.



Tom Cruise Crazy
YouTuber 'spiffworld' made another cool video for a JOCO song.

Spintown News:
I know 'Pain For Laughs 21' was supposed to be posted today. I did finish the video, but haven't added the opening sequence or credits yet. I've got work & a school project to work on today, so I won't have time to finish it until Tuesday evening. So it looks like a Wednesday upload now. Sorry, if I hadn't taken an hour to watch Breaking Bad tonight I might have been able to finish. It's still coming...an soon...

That's not the only bad news for today. If you're a Rat Pack fan you'll be sad to hear that the widow of Sammy Davis Jr. passed away yesterday. CLICK HERE for more details. My best wishes go out to her family & friends.

Nicklas The Nerd

Spintown News:
I wrote most of this blog in advance about a month ago, just in case I needed something quick. I'm currently slammed with work, so this will have to do for today. All the videos are dance related, and the BOTR is mostly lyrical routines.

I don't really like the show America's Got Talent, but once in awhile they do have a good act. It seems like the rest of the world has more talent though, since I usually find more videos I like from other countries. Today I've got 3 videos for a dancer called 'Nicklas The Nerd', and a second video of the robot dancers I linked to awhile back.

Nicklas The Nerd #1



Nicklas The Nerd #2



Nicklas The Nerd #3

Ninjas Helping Pirates

Spintown News:
I hope I passed my mid term today, I think I got around a B-. After that I did get some bad news. Apparently I have to do about 20 hours worth of field work for one of my current classes. You would think that's something they would disclose before you sign up for the class or at least on day 1. 20 hours of working in schools isn't a big deal, but considering I'm already a licensed teacher it's pretty redundant. I mean been there done that, waste of my time & money.

Ninjas Helping Pirates
Ask A Ninja is always funny.



Tweetaholic
Dave Ryder wrote a cool Twitter song.



Mickey Dance
Mickey Mouse is da bomb. Don't ever challenge this mouse to a dance battle, because believe it or not you'll be the one that looks silly in the end.

Song Fu 3: Round 2 Picks

Spintown News:
Today you guys get my top picks for Round 2 of Song Fu 3. My #1 song is featured today, and the rest are in the BOTR.

My favorite song from Round 2 of Song Fu 3 is Hank Green's entry. Luck for us he also made a little video for us.

Spintown Features: ArshaAsteraki

Spintown News:
Before you get to the videos I've got some sad news. I saw on Yahoo that broadcasting pioneer Paul Harvey died at the age of 90. I listened to him on the radio for about 25 years, and he was a great American. Click here for 'The Rest of the Story'.

It's been awhile since I featured just 1 person, so today I'm featuring YouTuber 'ArshaAsteraki'. I've seen a couple of his videos before, and probably posted 1 or 2 here in the past. But I recently subscribed to his channel, and decided to feature 4 of his best videos. Oh, and I threw another of his videos in the BOTR section.

PS: My Song Fu picks for Round 2 will be posted Tuesday.
