Yeah, so I’ve posted this everywhere but I just love it. Lucky Matt gets to sing with Rihanna and the poor boy looks like a deer stuck in the headlights when she comes out. He can’t decide if he can touch her or not…. Cute and hot all at the same time.

And where the hell does Rihanna get those legs from?

Been hearing this on BBC Radio 1 in the evenings and I just love it. I’ve always been a big fan of Massive Attack but this track is just heavenly: trip hop at it’s best. The track is called Paradise Circus and is on their forthcoming album Heligoland, out in February (in the UK at least).

This obviously isn’t the official video. You can find the official video at this link but be aware it is very NSFW, but very interesting if you can handle the content. Can’t wait for the album.

I promise there’ll be some “real” content soon, this isn’t supposed to be a video blog. That’s what my tumblr is for.

For comparison, here’s the X-Factor-manufactured pop contender:

and Rage’s social commentary (with profanity, beware!):

Since Feb 2008 I’ve uploaded 29 videos to YouTube. Most get 40-60 views, a few have over 100, one has over 400 but really I’m just a pimple on the buttocks of the video giant.

So imagine my surprise today when I got an email saying someone had uploaded a video response to one of my videos. And not a recent one, one from May of this year in fact. Some of you may remember my sad puppet tale of H1N1 in the house – some of you will have taken therapy or drugs to erase the memory.

But somehow, some way, somebody found my video and decided to waste 30 seconds of their life making a retort. Friends, I have arrived.

The original video:

The response:

Can a Best Director be far away??
