"YouTubing" -- Share Your Favorites!

Posted: Jun 17, 08 9:37pm

My kids and I love YouTube! I think it's incredible to be able to create your own personal musical "event" simply by searching for old favorites, and seeing where it takes you. It's also nice being able to discover totally new and different things that you never would have known about, if it weren't for YouTube. My daughter and I especially enjoy Classic Rock videos and Weird Al Yankovic.

Below I've included some of the things we've happened upon. I've decided to lean towards the more unique (and a couple "not so"), as things more familiar are easier to find. I would love to see and hear some of your favorite discoveries. . .

Thanks Mairi , Gjertsen and Weird Al were my favorites . I don't know why your list sent me searching for a good version of Baretts Privateers . Here's what I found instead :

Hey there, Discaimer, I really enjoyed the Regina Spektor offering. I'd never heard of her before. I will definitely have to listen to more. And I got a kick out Ireland Meets the Space Shuttle. What a combo -- Irish music and American space travel. YouTube can truly open some new frontiers! Thank you.

I like music videos that are different, in either the instruments, or the way in which they are played. Here are a few good ones:

Erik Mongrain, with his own unique guitar style:

Ed Alleyne-Johnson, playing electric violin live, with a loop machine:

Reggie Watts with a loop machine, and nothing else:

I have more to offer soon, but here is one I must share, if you haven't already seen it. HILARIOUS!

The first one is a Rolling Rock beer commercial and the second (hilarious!) is from the National Science Board of Canada (or something like that). Enjoy!
