YouTube Friday

This week's YouTube Friday is all over the place (and a couple of days late).

First up is a very cool bluegrass cover of Radiohead's "Morning Bell" by mandolin virtuoso Chris Thile and his band. Certainly an interesting rendition.



Second up is the scandalous video for Add (N) to X's "Plug Me In," which I'm sure will be taken down in the next few days.



Next up is the Bat for Lashes video for "What's a Girl to Do?" The Bat for Lashes tune is good, but the video makes it much, much cooler. There's definitely a Donnie Darko vibe to this one, which doesn't hurt.



Here's the awesome video for "Rabbit in Your Headlights" by Unkle featuring Thom Yorke on vocals. Be sure to stick around for the video's tremendous ending.



For those of you who haven't heard a bootleg copy of Sufjan Steven's "Majesty Snowbird" (or heard it live, nooch), here's a decent video of the spectacle that's involved. The sound quality could be better, but then again, this is one of the best videos of the song I've been able to find. Oh yeah, the song's a nine minute gorgeous epic.

And as a quick bonus (and reference to Ghost World), there's this, which is pure rock 'n roll.



I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.
