Truth in Music

Unknown

Felster introduced me to a series of short films Ok Go did which is called "The Truth in Music." I wanna know why did they make these little films? Anyone got any ideas.

Which one do you like best? Now, just realize they're all cute, hillarious little films. But what do you like best about them?

here's the linkie to them: http://www.truthinmusic.net/select.html

Thanks for sharing them, Felster. Sorry I didn't get your permission first before starting this thread, but I just got so excited from seeing those little films. They made me smile so much!

you need no permission, i dont have rights over them (i wish... can i say major motion picture people?!).

Truth in music is common ok godie knowledge, and now its your common knowledge .

my fav's gotta be 014 BUSINESS AND PLEASURE: Truth in Show Business ... Clown makeup+ Damian = RAD!

As to why they made them... DONT question the greatness that is Truth in Music!

I admit, I only watched them recently through the Wiki article. However, I was not disappointed AT ALL (but OK GO rarely disappoints).

Anyway, the clown one made me laugh out loud in the library. I honestly couldn't contain myself. I tried to hold it back, btu instead I made that weird, awkward, "SNARF" noise.

'Twas worth it though. The Yahtzee one is also priceless... and the dentist one... and 1-800-Jeffy....and the robot....

fuck it, they're all awesome.

edit: Also, I just have a place in my heart for mini experimental films. My [rather ingenious] friends have made 3 movies, two of which stared Barbies. Believe it or not, they were quite brilliant and, dare I say it?, deep....

I must say that the first time I viewed these little beauties I wondered what OK Go was thinking but then I realized, "Who cares these are funny as hell!!" The fisrt one I viewed was the "Truth in Parking" after I failed at parallel parking and it instantly made me feel better. Also the "Truth in Paperwork" was a great one. They are all amazing although quite useless videos.

i still remember me, dia, amina and tanya taking turns counting down from 200 so that Mr. Mr. Mr. Jorge, Whom I Adore, Whom I Adore, Whom I Adore would post a link to the clown one, haha...

The whole thing makes me wonder when Ok Go will get their own tv show. The talent is there, just waiting to be used.

So true. I say we bombard a T.V. station and demand they allow OK Go to have their own show. Then we could see our spiffy men ever Wednesday night at 6:30 talking about the things they talk about. Maybe recent shows or people they encounter along the way.

It could be named Oh No. I would watch it.

I say Lightamatch4me and Felster are both right, the show should be a little of both of what you two propose. That will make it different than any of the show on tv. And they could flaunt off their randomness and adorableness.

Man, they should make some new ones with Rusty.

Dude, I feel so left out. I haven't watched these yet. Or the entirety of the ping pong vid. I'm such a slacker OK Go fan.

Hmm, I was just thinking that I must be the only one that thinks OK Go has quickly taken over their life, but I guess I'm not.

I must say that showed me a new side of Damian. One with a crazy little pony tail and anger. Lots of it too.
