I saw this a few days ago and considered making a new thread about it. Spore looks fantastic.

This might not be on Google Video, but it's still pretty awesome. Go, Go, Power... Spiderman?

On the other hand, this is a Google Video.

Heh, well whatever gives you an advantage in a firefight...

Though how a guy could concentrate on things like, yknow, shooting at her is far beyond me.

The best song. Ever.

I know lyrics aren't that important anymore... but I mean... come on.
--Mith

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.

Another example of "looks good in theory, but not in practice". I was kinda hyped about seeing those thrusters powering that guy around, but it became apparent that all they did was a whole lot of nothing except maybe make him fall faster :(

"Total Eclipse of the Heart" by the Norwegian Appliance Rock band Hurra Torpedo

Google Video clip

For more information on this music phenomenon, check out their web site. Be sure to check out some video interviews of the band. I wouldn't necessarily say "Great stuff!", but it's definitely "different." :P

Wikipedia has this to say:

Hurra Torpedo is Norway's most famous kitchen appliance band, formed in the early nineties. They are a part of the artistic collective Duplex Records, and all members of the band also play in a variety of other bands in Norway.

During recent years Hurra Torpedo have had annual split- and reunion tours. The band struck international fame when a television performance of the 1983 Bonnie Tyler power ballad "Total Eclipse of the Heart", using kitchen appliances for percussion, spread as an internet meme. The clip, from a Norwegian Saturday Night Live type show called Lille lørdag ("Little Saturday"), was filmed in 1995. In mid 2005 the clip was uploaded to the internet.

In the clip, the band, dressed in ill-fitting jogging suits, play on a stage surrounded by various kitchen appliances. Frontman Hegerberg plays guitar and sings in an off-key monotone, Schau "drums" by hitting a stove with a stick and slamming the door of a freezer, while Guttormsgaard adds backing vocals, and at the climax smashes the top of an electrical stove with a large piece of metal on the beat of the song.

In October/November 2005 they became part of a viral ad campaign by going on a coast to coast tour in the US that was paid for by Ford in order to promote the Ford Fusion car. As part of the ad campaign, a mockumentary movie called "The Crushing Blow" is being made, directed by the "character" Pip Simon who is played by the actress Tara Copeland.

What the bloody hell was that?
All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.

And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.

"Isn't this where...."

I would answer that question if I could, Doc :P

If you decide to watch the documentary-clips I linked to in my previous post, believe me when I say "the plot thickens". :)

Words do not describe how awesome this band is. The world needs this band. Music has become a joke.

The high falsetto of "Turn around briiiiiight eeeeeeeeyes!" in a quavering tone had me sold.

These guys will be even bigger than Spinal Tap.

Apparently, there's an album ("Colossus") in the works, which is to be released April 2006.

However:

Aslag Wrote:Given how lazy we are, we expect there to be some delays.
The album will contain their versions of Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart", Britney Spears' "TOXIC" and T.A.T.U's "All the things she said", as well as a collection of their own songs.

For some more interesting video clips, check this site.

There are some mighty interesting historical pieces there. :)
