Favorite Music Videos: "Days Go By" and "Praise You"

Since I can't really post about sports casually to save myself (twas another time when sports fed my passion -- I wanna get back to at least playing them) I'm going to fall back on music yet again (ORLY!?).

This video is from the same era as the Christopher Walken dancin' beast video and reminds me of Fatboy Slim quite a bit. It reminds me of the 90s a lot too actually, just for having some sort of attempt to tell a bit of a narrative with a video to a song -- ALSO reminds me of "Praise You" by Fatboy Slim probably more appropriately just because it also takes place on a sidewalk with impromptu dance bits -- I ended up just including it at the bottom, below Days Go By.

I love the guy in this video though, and of course, his dancing. The subtitles, the flashback, and the lip syncing of the guy in the diner all make this stick out my music video memories and 90s memories. God bless it.

  1. Interesting that this makes you think of the '90s. There was more stories in videos back then, though. I never watched too many music videos ever, just because I didn't have MTV growing up. The first video is good. Second is a bit weird for me. Apparently you're into those kinds of public shenanigans.
