U2 (With or Without You) - Acappella Cover
Just stumbled across this tonight. Like the U2 version but this is a good acappella version. Reminds of stuff that a Saskatchewan band called Hoja does. I'll embed a clip from them below as well just for fun.

Rememberance Day 2008
Today is Rememberance Day and I would like to remind the people that come to Video Rambler today to remember those that have served and are still serving our country. Thanks to those individuals we are able to enjoy the freedom that we have. I have posted A Pittance of Time by Terry Kelly before, but it is so good that it needs to be reposted again.

Pork and Beans
I am not a big Weezer fan, in fact I have probably only heard a few of their songs. I StumbledUpon this video and had to post it because of all of the YouTube faces you can see in the video. I am a little worried about how many people I recognize from videos I posted here. Perhaps I spend to much time watching videos on YouTube? What a great way to make their video go viral on the Internet though. Include the people that have already gone viral. Not a bad song either.

Absolut Quartet
The things people come up with. I can't even begin to describe this, so I will give you some of the description and hopefully it makes sense.
There is a website associated with the video but it is sponsored by Absolut vodka so if you are under the age of majority (kids that means you) you need your parents. It does not work for me on my Linux computer becuase I have an older version of flash. I am going to give it a try with my Windows machine and see what it is all about. Visit the YouTube page by clicking the video for the link to the website.
As seen in the beginning of the video, the visitor to the site enters a melody on their computer keyboard. The machine then uses this melody to generate an original and unique 2 1/2 minute piece of music. The web visitor also receives a link to a webcam video of their piece being played.

The Vegetable Orchestra
There is a part of me that is disturbed by this video. Mainly because I know that there are many people in the world that don't have enough to eat, yet we are blessed with abundance, enough abundance that we can take vegetables and create instruments out of them for amusement. That being said, there is also something fascinating about taking vegetables and making instruments out of them.

Jesus Christ Superstar - Heaven On Their Minds
Had the opportunity to take in Jesus Christ Superstar on Friday night in Saskatoon. It was an excellent performance. There were times that the music and singing were so good that you had to wonder if it was a recording or live. I suppose when you do the same show so many times that you can do it flawlessly. If you want to know more about the this tour check out www.thejcstour.com. It was a great performance, and not only that but my wife and I had front row seats.

Logged into YouTube today and noticed that Weird Al had a new video posted. The video has an interesting animation style to it. Not sure if I like it or not. The song is a good commentary on all those people out there that sue others for stupid reasons. What is really scary is how often those people win their dumb lawsuits. Glad I don't live in the United States. It is not so bad here in Canada, yet, hopefully we can avoid some of that ridiculousness.

Fractals are really quite amazing to watch and this video that zooms in on a Mandelbrot Fractal is no exception. The creator of this video also created a poster of the what he calls the "blue oyster spiral" in 1993 that took 3 days to create using 34 high end Macs.
P.S. The song is by a group called "Big Pig". It is a great album. You should go buy it is you don't already have it.

Barenaked Ladies - Wind it Up (Fan Version)
I would say that the Barenaked Ladies are my favourite music group. I have liked them since I was in high school. There is something about their music no matter what I am doing I can listen to it. I don't have the new album "Wind it Up" yet, but I have asked for it for Christmas, and I suspect that is one Christmas present I will get.
This video is a fan submitted video for the single "Wind it Up". It was created for the Barenaked Ladies air guitar contest. They do a good job. It is fun to watch and of course the music is great.

It is different, but they actually cover it pretty well. I don't think I have ever heard a metal version of Come All Ye Faithful.

Weird Al has some really good songs on his new album, and it is great to see an artist use the internet and services like YouTube to promote his album by posting the video of the songs.

Fun video and hopefully the album does well.
Premiere cancelled
I'm very sorry to say that the AOL "First View" Premiere of the "White & Nerdy" video has been cancelled.
Apparently, the video has already leaked online, and AOL doesn't feel comfortable doing a "World Premiere" promotion for a video that a number of people have seen already. (I can understand songs leaking, but a video? How'd THAT happen?)
Anyway, it's really a bummer... it would have been great promotion for the album... but hey, life goes on.

A Pittance of Time by Terry Kelly
I was originally sent this video for Remembrance Day a couple of years ago and I am happy that I am able to share it with you here. What a great tribute to our veterans.
From the videos description:
From the videos description:
On November 11, 1999 Terry Kelly was in a Shoppers Drug Mart store in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. At 10:55 AM an announcement came over the stores PA asking customers who would still be on the premises at 11:00 AM to give two minutes of silence in respect to the veterans who have sacrificed so much for us. When eleven o'clock arrived on that day, an announcement was again made asking for the "two minutes of silence" to commence. All customers, with the exception of a man who was accompanied by his young child, showed their respect.
Terry's anger towards the father for trying to engage the stores clerk in conversation and for setting a bad example for his child was channeled into a beautiful piece of work called, "A Pittance of Time".

The Piano
Here is a great animation of an older man playing the piano. As he plays you can see various scenes from his life go by. Another touching video that made me think. The animation is well done and the music chosen is very appropriate.

Johnny Cash - Hurt
Watched the Johnny Cash movie called "Walk the Line" a little while ago and it made me want to learn a little more about Johnny Cash and his life. There is some good information from Wikipedia. Here is Johnny Cash's version of a Nine Inch Nails song called "Hurt". It is really well done and quite moving.

Welcome to the Funny Farm
I used to listen to this song when I was a kid. Maybe I should not post that, oh well, it is true. What makes this video fun to watch is the editing. It has a stop motion feel to it. I thought this is a great video to start the work week off with. That is how I have been feeling lately.

Amazing Video of a Song Composed Entirely of 37 Cello Parts
This is great! Amazing what you can do when you mix things together. This song features one person playing all 37 cello parts. Take a look and listen. Very impressive.

Animusic - Pipe Dream
This animation is really well done. The computer animation is really well done and it does appear that the music is actually being played by the instruments. Well worth your time to take a look at this one.

ScanJet Scanner playing Fur Elise
This is another video that I have just not paid a lot of attention to when it popped up as a popular one. I always thought "how can that be interesting or entertaining?". Well, I have again been proven wrong, which despite my trying happens way to often. I am sure glad my scanner does not play music, I think it would freak me out if it burst out in a musical number. I do have to wonder how they got the scanner to do that though? People have way to much time on their hands to do stuff like this, and I have way to much time on my hands to talk about stuff like this. It's an evil cycle.

My Guitar Gently Weeps on a Ukelele
I keep seeing this video on Google video and finally took a look at it. This guy is pretty impressive on the ukelele. I have to admit I did not know you could play "My Guitar Gently Weeps" on the ukelele. I guess you learn something new everyday.
