In doing the research for the course, I’ve watched a lot of YouTube videos.  If you wander YouTube enough you’ll find some outrageous videos.  There is some really weird/cool stuff out there.  Today I thought I’d share some of my favorites.  Some of these are used in our lessons, some are educational, some are just crazy.  So checkout these video gems.

Axwell /\ Ingrossos – Sun is Shining

One of my current favorite songs.  The message is uplifting.  Fun Fact! Axwell and Ingrosso are two of the three members of Swedish House Mafia.

Baby Bouncers – Telephone

This video gems comes to us from Warner Music Sweden.  It’s just too funny.  Those crazy swedes.

OMFG – Hello

Do you remember the hamster dance? You don’t? Well you are lucky.  This is the hamster dance of the new millennium.  Some of the online versions run as long as a 10-hours.

Weird Al – Word Crimes

I’ve loved Weird Al Yankovic since I heard him on Dr. Demento as a kid.  With the popularity of Lyric Videos, I offer you Weird Al’s take on it.  Plus the song is very educational.

Total Eclipse of the Heart Literal Video Version

From lyric video to literal video.  What’s a literal video? Well, the words of the song are changed to describe what is going on in the video.  It’s very meta.  This one is just hilarious.

How to Become the British Monarch

You’ve always wanted to be the King?  Well, here’s how to do it!  What’s that you say?  You want to be the pope instead?  Don’t worry, we got you covered.

Alesso – Tomorrowland 2016

Tomorrowland is one of the biggest EDM festival in the world.  This video gives a great view of what the professionally produced experience is like. Like Alesso? Try this one.

Axis of Awesome – 4 Chord Song

And they say EDM music all sounds the same.  Guess what? All music sounds the same, and these guys prove it. NOTE: A bit of bad language in this one *NSFW*

Royal Institute – The Science of Fireworks

The Royal Institute is a fantastic source of science presentation targeted at kids. This episode was the informational source of our pyrotechnics lesson.  The most popular lesson in the course.
