A: A whole new level of Awkward. (And that’s a good thing).

Why didn’t I think of this?

Music videos are having a sort of creative renaissance lately, and I’m starting to remember why I used to love them so much way back in yesteryear. First came OK Go’s Rube Goldberg-esque video for “This Too Shall Pass”…then Lady Gaga & Beyonce made incarceration look hot in “Telephone”. Next up, it’s a much more understated but equally impressive video from Diane Birch called “Valentino”. The video is one continuous take, and it took two weeks of intense rehearsals to perfect it. Enjoy:

OK Go has created another viral video jaw-dropper…I’ve always loved these “Mousetrap”/Rube Goldberg chain-reaction videos – this one takes the genre to a whole other level. Sit back and enjoy – I guarantee you’ll watch it until the very last frame.
