Waltzing Matilda, sung by Harry Belafonte.

Now this earworm can burrow in your ear as deeply as it has mine.

And now, for something completely different.

To make up for the strange Russian singer I posted the other day, I present, for your approval, Ida Maria. This is a fun song, and a great video. /via @boingboing

Pardon to those of you on Facebook who have seen this already, but I had to blog this. It is beyond words. Literally. This man is not singing any words.

My favorite YouTube comment:

in soviet russia, youtube video laughs at you.

A really spectacular Rube Goldberg-esque music video of “This Too Shall Pass” by OK Go. I really liked their first video of this song featuring a marching band and incredible camera angles, but this new one is several times more awesome. Watch it — it’s worth 4 minutes of your time.

“Human”, by The Killers. From the 2008 album Day & Age.

I know this is SO 2 years ago, but I rediscovered it when it showed up in my iPod’s Genius playlist, and I had to listen to it twice.

It’s a Goomba-stopping mushroom-popping mustached man! (NSFW)

College Humor has a wrap about the original Gameboy Super Mario Land. Excellent. Though the language is a little bit crude.

Oh, Pomplamoose. You can make even Christmas songs awesome.

Crush 2.0

My friend Alex created a great short podcast about celebrity crushes. He manages to combine humor reminiscent of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (Did you hear it? Right there at the beginning.)

He also talks about Nataly Dawn, a member of the SF indie band “Pomplamoose”. Yeah, I’ve been love with her for a while, too.

It’s a fun project, Alex — Keep up the awesome work!

Sophie Madeleine, an awesome uke player featured often on BoingBoing. She’s awesome. I can name my own price for her album at BandCamp, but even the $5 minimum is a little too ‘spensive for me right now. It’s on my wish list, though.
