what would we do without youtube?

I love the random things you can find on the internet.

John Cale of The Velvet Underground on an American game show in 1963:

The second woman asking questions cracked me up. WTF kind of questions were those? This whole thing was just so weird and random and hilarious.

Ingram Hill covering Chris Brown's "With You" in a bright pink studio:

Video description: So, the spirit of Chris Brown took over Phil's body, and he said that we needed to cover "With You." The rest of us were a little unsure, but after Phil suggested we paint the walls pink, we changed our mind. So on a rainy, strangely warm January day, we did all that... even the paint job.

Thom Yorke dancing to M.I.A. in a DJ booth:


The Smiths on a kid's show called Charlie's Bus sometime in the 80's:

One of the strangest clips I have ever seen. So many good things about it: notice Johnny Marr giving some kid the wanker sign at 0:19, Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now being played when the children are going through Kew Gardens, Sandie Shaw singing Jeane to them on the lawn (real uplifting songs there), and Morrissey's constant looks of disdain towards the camera.

"Where are we going?"
"We're all going mad."
"I thought we were going to Kew Gardens!"

What a weird decade.
