Friday Video - Invisible Drum Kit

This week's video is one of my favorite stage bits from Rowan Atkinson called the Invisible Drum Kit.  Most of the world knows Rowan as Mr. Bean, but those who only know him that way are missing out.  He has a whole slew of very funny stuff that is independent of the Bean saga.  Although, I guess I'm not exposing you all to that because the invisible drum set is also a pantomime.  Ah well.  Watch it anyway.

Friday Video - Flying Penguins?

This week I'd like to share with you guys a mockumentary bit from the BBC (or supposedly from the BBC) on penguins.  I think the title of the video gives away a lot, but I still enjoy the visuals.

Friday Video - Kiwi

This week's Friday video is a favorite of mine from a few years back.  I can't tell you too much about it because it will ruin the video for you, but in short it's a Kiwi bird with a mission.

Friday Video - Patrick Stewart Alphabet Song

Hi all.  This week's Friday video is a slightly geeky one, but it's enjoyable enough that you don't have to be a geek to appreciate it.  It's called the Patrick Stewart Alphabet Song and is, in fact, just that.  Patrick Stewart sings a song going through the letters of the alphabet.  Particularly notable is that it takes place on the bridge of the Enterprise.  I bet the cast and crew of Next Generation had a good laugh about that one....

Friday Video - History of Music by String Fever

This week's video features music...again...but not just any music.  It's the history of music by an awesome string quartet called String Fever.

Ah, ah, ah, ah, stayin' alive!  Stayin' alive!

Friday Video - What American English Sounds Like

Hey all, this Friday's video was sent to us by one of our professors.  The title is "What American English sounds like to non-English speakers" and it's a clip of an Italian comedian from the 70's.  I'm inclined to agree with their interpretation of us.  It's especially good, I think, if you mentally situate it with other 70's music videos.

Also the dancing is...well, you'll see.

Friday Video - Literal version of Total Eclipse of the Heart

This week's Friday video was shared with me several weeks ago by a classmate.  We must have watched it 3 times in a row.  It's the Literal Version of the song Total Eclipse of the Heart.  Honestly, the real video is just as weird.
