My sister said she saw a preview for the movie Good Luck Chuck [with Dane Cook!! ADLKFJA!] and it was using YSDH! She ran downstairs to tell me, what a cutie! Which of course caused me too look up the trailor which is on the website haha.

The video for HIGA was used heavily in a South African cell phone (I think) commercial back in April. It's the whole commercial, basically. Here's a link to the article where I read about it. To see the commercial, from the article go to Related Links -> MTN go rock the world mpeg

The concept apparently was that (warning: nauseating PR bullshit coming up) "Audiences can look forward to adverts that play on individuals who rise to major challenges, stories of people who have mobilised their true potential, celebrating individuals doing things that ordinary people aspire to and showing ordinary people who take ordinary things and turn them into something amazing," the company said.

To make things worse, the author of the article calls our boys "badly dressed" and the dance "elaborately tacky;" he/she also doesn't seem to realize that the guys in the video ARE the band playing the song. Clueless!

Still, it's pretty cool that OK Go impressed people all over the world with this video.

"To play you need four things."
"Just make the things you really believe in, and they'll have a chance."
"The less you observe your restrictions, the more likely you are to succeed."

So I'm watching Big Brother. A commercial for The Big Bang Theory comes on. What song starts? HIGA. biggrin.gif It played for the whoooole commercial, and was lovely.

About two seconds in, I said "OMG that's OK Go! I have to go online for a second."

I then came, and typed this. And now I am about to hit submit.

CALL ME A DUCK.

Tumblr! Twitter! Facebook! Yay for social media.
