Ok Go

Okay, let's just get this part out of the way. Most people know OK Go from their videos, especially those treadmills. Any video that's well enough known to be parodied on The Simpsons is a cultural force in itself and, checking the YouTube rating right before sitting down to write this, I was amazed to see that the number of views on the band's YouTube page alone now stands at 47,788,229. That's a lot. That many people and a brother who's the Governor of Florida is pretty much enough to win you a presidential election. Add the zillions who've seen it elsewhere, and you might not even need the brother. So if you're reading these words, you've probably seen that video. I find even more endearing the video dance to "A Million Ways" that hundreds of amateur foursomes - kids and adults and church groups and school groups - have imitated in what certainly must be the world's first international YouTube dance contest. If you haven't had the pleasure, Google it right now and prepare to lose two hours of your life.
