I dare you not to laugh and smile at this OK GO Video

Posted at 3:37 PM on March 5, 2010 by Jim McGuinn (2 Comments)

Check out another classic clip from Damian and our pals in OK Go -

This is the second video to this track: you might recall a clip the band created with a marching band performing the song live, then the editorial in the NY Times by Damian ripping the band's label for not allowing media (and people) to 'embed' the clip onto their own pages. Somehow the new one is 'embedable' - not sure if it's the band showing up their label or if they've solved the dispute - but glad to pass along the new clip for you to check out.

OK ... I love a "dare" ... BIG smile!!! Awesome engineering went into this ripple effect. The music and lyrics added a powerful reminder: life is a chain of events punctuated by ducking, dodging, spattering, waving, splashing, crashing, pounding, wincing ... smiling. The joy is in the collective ride. It all passes much too quickly. Bravo, OK GO!!!

Great video. It took me a minute to place where the "ooh oohs" were borrowed from - it's "Mr. Brown," an early Bob Marley song.
