Who ever thought that "Pipe Wrench Fight" could make its way to song...

Hot Air?

I gotta say...this video made me laugh out loud a few times.

I particularly like the Sketchy hand.

Just think of all the videos they could do this to. New Order always had bizarre videos, they'd be gret to do Literalist.

I hope to see more.

Right you are... Case in point: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=og1HAkjOuL0

(I'm a big New Order fan)

What fun! That A-Ha video is one of my sister's favorites...I sent the link to her immediately!

And yeah, I too laughed out loud. Which is good, considering I'm working late and need all the amusement I can get. Thanks! 8)

That's exactly the video I was thinking of when I responded!

I always thought this one was funny...show's they had a sense of humor!

(New Order's "Touched by the Hand of God")

OMG, I'd completely forgotten about this one! It's straight out of "Decline of Western Civilization 2."

I did a degree in communication studies AKA cult studs.

We had a whole lecture dedicated to the video for "Take on me"

Life was good. I wish I appreciated it more at the time.

I think they also sneaked in Chas Jankel's "Questionnaire"

And I think I am having MV deja vu.

Hahaha..I remember when that one came out. There were a lot of people that thought they were serious because everyone said they were too boring live and they needed to "spice" it up.

I always thought they should have done this at one of their live shows.

I saw them live for the Technique tour, with The Sugarcubes and PiL. You aren't kidding about the lackluster live shows. Of course, New Order is famous for making their crowds wait, but their live performance exhibits the amount of energy shown in the Perfect Kiss video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--pSWLEVGhY

Of course, The Cure isn't much better. At least the lighting crew make it visually more interesting.

One of the best live shows I've ever been to was Sisters of Mercy, but they disbanded years ago.

frogs. in a song. best band ever.

Frogs, a car crash, and plenty of cowbell. You just can't go wrong!

I got a fever, and the only prescription...: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4royOLtvmQ

Maybe a wee bit "off topic" but this thread put me in mind of the "Evoloution of Dance" since most of the moves come straight out of videos. I've got to admit I was laughing out loud part of the time!

Who said balding middle-aged white guys can't dance!

Wow that was funny. I used to love that band.

The guy who sang the parady did very well also.

I think I might prefer that over the original...

...especially the overtalk in the hall.

Thank you!

Glad you guys all liked it!

I tend to syndicate posts like these (general interest threads) among all of the forums I participate in. Someone linked to this Family Guy clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqwUF7ez_XU (very funny).

I hope your parents were paying the tuition bill.

ha...so true...i forgot about the powerful and moving performance of perfect kiss...
