It's Good to Be Naked
Dude. Barenaked Ladies, in town, so awesome.
I love the Ladies. They are so great in so many ways - hilarious, fantastic music all around. I'm going to their concert at the Skyreach Center this week, and I am mucho pumped. And I saw this new video for their single 'Sound of Your Voice'. Not my favorite single, per se, bit the video's pretty sweet. BNL seems to be one of the most 'with-it' groups around; they understand and relate to the listener to a degree I just don't see from most bands, especially big-label bands that've been around for 15 years.
The video is a compilation of home videos and webcam clips of some YouTube celebrities doing some air guitar to the Ladies' new single. That in itself isn't that great - it could easily be that the Ladies simply paid them to do (Numa Numa = Moola Moola, Gary B!). I don't think they did though, BNL just isn't like that, they're cool, dog. After all, this is just a spin off their 2nd most recent video, where regular fans (unfamous YouTubers) did some air guitar to 'Wind It Up'.
Basically, this video reminded me of how some musicians are very cool, and down to earth, and not all about making the big bucks. Check out the CMCC, which was started up by BNL and includes Sam Roberts and Sarah McLachlan!
Hurray I'm super-duper excited for the show! I'll try and bring my lil Canon Powershot camera and get some video if I can. In the meantime, You can be My Yoko-Ono.
