No doubt videos of this type would not appeal to the cognoscenti, but I think they are wonderful! This one was made by Classic FM to celebrate its 20th anniversary. Zadok the Priest was the first piece played on the station. Just a string quartet would liven up my visit to Tesco at 7.30am! Go on, watch. It's only 3.26.

Bravo, bravo...
We've had several of these musical flash mob videos, and they were all great. One was the Philly Opera Company at the Italian Market. Another was a whole orchestra appearing in the town square after a little girl dropped a coin in a street musicians cup. Another was in a train or bus station with singing and dancing. I love them all.

This one isn't in my top ten but it's worth watching if only to see the reaction of the girl on the checkout. Last but not least. I think it is somewhat unfair to describe it as funny. 'Joyful' would be a better description. If I could play just half as well as these kids, I'd be happy.

Yes, yes, the Banco Sabadell, that was fantastic! As I remember they recorded that with only three microphones. The making of that video being a very professional job, mainly by not spoiling the premise with tons of equipment. It doesn't hurt that they picked something most of the crowd could sing along.
La Rondine, the reactions of all the shoppers seems to be, I don't know what's going on but I better grin like an idiot until I find out. And it's infectious. William Tell, exuberance is also infectious. They certainly have a disproportionate number of strings in that room, perfect for Tell, and flight of the Bumblebee.  Well done Carruthers.

For Carruthers especially.
But for any Brit of a certain age. And any Dr Who fan (Bernard Cribbins plays Donna Noble's father) And for anyone of any time and place who likes a bit of light relief in comedic song form. With Lego.

I'm already stuck in 1975 for the "I'm Not In Love" thread, and you hit me with this. Another pop hero, another one of the great singles of all time. |

Glad you liked it. I was inspired by your 10cc thread.
I remember listening to this sort of music with my AM radio. There was something unusual and it was full of artistic expression. I'm not sure we get alot of that anymore these days. BigBadJohn would be another song I remember on my AM radio. But it scared me. and that song about ringo somebody. and Angie Baby. Creepy. But great on the AM |
