"3000 years of the world's great art in 3 minutes", sometimes called the "Classical Gas Video," is 40 years old this year, and it's still mindboggling!

It was created by Mason Williams; he tells the story at http://www.classicalgas.com/gasvideo.html

A recreation of the original video is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ig6e68iGU8, though it lacks the original intro panel (the title "3000 years of the world's great art in 3 minutes") and the final panel: "You are now cultured."

Each image lasts about 1/12 sec, which is close to the physical limits of human perception, given the persistence of image wired into our neural circuits. And yet, at that speed, you will still recognize some of the art. You might think of it as an art history class on amphetamines.

Here are two more. The first one is Sarah Brightman and Antonio Banderas :wub: performing Phantom of the Opera.

 

The other is an amazing girl singing on Ellen.

 

Thanks! I finally found the singers who sang Time to Say Goodbye. I had no idea of the title song or the name of singer when I first heard it at Bellagio's water show in Las Vegas. The song was stuck in my head for awhile.

 

By the way, the second link is the same as the first one.

Erasure used fan footage to make their video for "I Could Fall In Love With You", and my husband and I were lucky enough to have our photo chosen. It's only up for a split second, but I was thrilled to have gotten in. It's a cute video, with a good variety of couples, both straight and gay:

 

 

Another favorite, Swedish glam band The Ark. I love the outfit he comes out in at about 1:40 (what little of it there is). :lol:

 

 

Scissor Sisters bizarre and brilliant video for "She's My Man". This was done in a style of Japanese puppetry that gives the illusion that camera angles are changing, but it was actually done in one take with no perspective changes at all:

I have several, acutally.

First is Randomness-Butterfly 1 by AriaSivlermead. It's just that. It's a bunch of clips shoved together, but it's to cute not to mention. It's 1 min. 37 secs. long.

Johnny Cash 'Hurt' is another good one. I loved Johnny Cash and I still do.

Johnny Cash 'God's Gonna Cut You Down' This one was the one with all the singers getting together and lip syncing to the song. Very powerful song and video.

Sexy Alien Cartoon Band created and posted by MooseMouseMedia. *twitch* *twitch* *falls to floor laughing*

I have a thing for T.a.T.u. and this was one of my favorite songs off of their newest cd. Great video though.

And I quote:
a beautiful french music video talking about sex, line and explosion.
Got to love it. And...I can't understand a word of it.

 

And thats it unless you want a list of AMV's (anime music videos)
