The Icicle Works "Birds Fly (A Whisper to a Scream)" | Crazy Band

29 Celebrity Impressions, One Original Song | Crazy Musician

This could have gone terribly, terribly wrong, but is terribly, terribly entertaining and well done. Musician Rob Cantor (vocals/voices, with the help of several others, as this is a music video and not a live performance) performs an original song in the voices of 29 celebrities. What I particularly love is that the theme of the song actually ties in with the use of all the voices, instead of being a simple gag or shtick: you're perfect in the way that you are.



And before anybody screams foul that it's fake and this dude isn't actually singing all those voices: yep, you're right. It's a music video. It's to promote a music album called Not a Trampoline. Remember when Michael Stipe and REM blew the socks off the music video world by not singing (lip syncing) a line in "Losing My Religion"? Same sorta thing: it's to entertain.

Check out the "making of" video, it's pretty interesting in its own right:

Crazy Band & Filmster | Tim Burton directs Killers videos

Crazy Masher | Kutiman "Thru-you 01 Mother of All Funk Chords"

Utilizing multiple found-sounds on YouTube, Kutiman creates a beautiful mashed-up tune. Nice one!

BONUS END-OF-THE-WORLD POST

Crazy Band | Peace "Your Hand in Mine"

Crazy Band | The Zolas "Knot in My Heart"

Crazy Band | Purity Ring "Lofticries"

Crazy Band and Animator | Mother Mother and Chad VanGaalen "The Sticks"

Crazy Band | Metric "Breathing Underwater"

Just Crazy | Jonathan Mann & Ivory King "We've Got to Break Up"

Not gonna lie. This is a bit odd. After five years a couple decides to break up, and write a song to explain why to their friends and family, and post it on youTube.

Crazy Band | The Pack a.d. "Positronic"

Crazy Band | Skydiggers "A Penny More"

One of the few bands I will actually leave a comment on... truly one of the great voices recorded, with music so suited as to be almost miraculous... the Skydiggers are Canadian Musical Gold. I spent a lot of time with their Road Radio album, and it is amazing in its depth and beauty.

Crazy Band | Wallflowers "Reboot the Mission"

Crazy Band | Len "It's My Neighbourhood"

Always the best in bubble-gum pop, Len ("Steal My Sunshine") is back with new tunes, looking forward to Summer 2013! (Shout-out to Ms. Sedun for the cameo...!)
