I guess this'll be like one of those forum games where I'll post something and talk about it, another will come along to respond to my post to then go on to talk about something else (somewhat related of course), share it, another will come along and do the same and so on and so forth. Make sense? Basically:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzC4hFK5P3g

I sat through the entire thing, might even watch it again. I thought it was kinda catchy actually but my word, was the video itself bizarre. The Japanese never fail to leave me utterly gobsmacked. Very bright and eccentric. From what another YouTuber had gathered, "This is about a Japanese hoarder schoolgirl on drugs?". I have to admit; I agreed, lol.
Like most advertisements, how do they come up with this stuff?

Now post another crazy video that you've seen and discuss! God forbid; maybe we'll get inspired to do our own! In fact, if you have one, post it!

On the subject of wierd videos with awesome music, I present

I love the song but that video is just bizarre.

EDIT: I've just watched the video you posted. That is certainly strange and catchy.

I think we need the translations... but I reckon it will just confuse us further. Japan has some really weird cultures....

If anyone understands, this please send them to the CIA for questioning because clearly they are not human.

That really is bizarre, wow, haha. The song is amazing though. Do you know who did the animation? I swear that I recognise the style from somewhere else.

That was my intial reaction to the video. What does it mean? What sort of person makes an advertisement like this?

Although I think that it is satire, so we've all been had.
Haha, sorry, I didn't mean to suggest that the music video was an advertisement, I just meant that adverts in general are usually rather strange to give a hint on what to post but certainly plenty of music videos are pretty odd. Especially a lot of Lady GaGa ones. Got any odd videos to share?

It probably will, lmao! Though I reckon that just increases our curiosities. Got any strange videos to share?

This makes me want to fish out the Atari lmao! Though a lot of the games are quite disturbing, then again, I was quite young when I played them, haha. Now I've started to sing along to this, argh! I can't work out for the life of me what it's about, mind so unfortunately I'm no help, lmao!

Right. I cannot find the film for the life of me but it consists of a filming technique called "reverse motion" so all the acting is done in "reverse" but in the final edit it's "put forward" so we can understand it but it's still got that "reversed" feel to it. Er, it's really difficult and weird to explain but this is what I'm talking about:

It was done by Magnus Carlsson, a Swedish animator who made a series called Robin.

The bit at the end with the dancing is just odd (well odder that the rest). Karl Marx dancing is just awesome too.

You know, that was actually quite catchy, bit ashamed to say it but favourited.


OT: Immediately thought of this gem, prepare for nightmares

Haha! I had a laugh at that. I swear I've heard the audio somewhere before though.

Thank you! Actually, it really reminds me of some of Moby's music videos now that I really think about it.

I absolutely love the song though, haha. Mind you, the dancing silhoette ducks, the part you singled out I think, reminds me a great deal of Psycrow from Earthworm Jim!

Oh sweet Jeebus. Not the cows! Actually, I watched that just recently there whenever it came up in the suggested videos from viewing THIS video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQO-aOdJLiw&feature=related that came up on the frontpage when I logged in a wee while ago. I was HORRIFIED at both, lmao!

Oh my God, haha. Just the way the narrator talks is terrifying. Is it supposed to be a kids' TV show? I might have to go listen to some Yoko Ono after hearing that narrator sing too!
