Tina Turner - We Don't Need Another Hero



I was always somewhat concerned that the planet might fall into chaotic ruin ... !

the audio here is great.. the picture quality and sync is out a bit.

The Ronettes - Be My Baby



totally awesome old school

Smashing Pumpkins - Tonight Tonight




A really great clip ...

Rant: I like the song 33 better, but not the film clip that goes with it (check out 33 here) .... I would really like to re-edit their 33 footage. To me, it's too literal. I would use stills of some of their clip rather than moving shots, perhaps moving the camera over the still for impact. Lots of shots would be cut ... it's a great song.

Thanks to Jason for the reminder about Tonight Tonight ... !

Tour of Duty - End Credits 1987



one of the best TV shows ever !

at the end of season one the clip here had to be changed since so many of the characters appearing here had been killed off !

"Planet Krypton" theme from the Superman Movie



Awesome theme with voice over from the film ... the you tube clip here was put together by the dude credited at the end.

I like the idea in there .... our capacity for good !

MAGNUM FORCE - Trailer ( 1973 )



One of the worst trailers ever, but my favourite Dirty Harry movie ... lots of good lessons to be learnt in this one ....

Friday, August 28, 2009

James Brown- Blues Brothers- Do you See the Light ?



pity about the subtitles.... still goood tho !!

Wednesday, August 26, 2009

ABBA - One of Us



no film clip embed codes available for posting .... but the full clip is available here !

such a sad song at the end of their run ....

Friday, August 21, 2009

The Righteous Brothers - You've Lost that Loving Feeling (Live)



exceptional song. I especially like the bit starting at 1:49 ... as I'm sure everyone does !

Watchmen: Prison Break



Check it out, they kick arse !

I really like this film because it is not so simple, with the heroes acting highly questionably at times- like unconscionable thugs themselves ... perhaps not in this clip tho ...

The Crystals - Da Doo Ron Ron



the wall of sound ... a pumpin tune indeed !

Doctor Who The Horror Of Fang Rock Clip 1



I like Old School Dr Who much better than the new series because it was much more serious and had less wide-eyed mushy-gushy moments. There was an edge to the show. It was creepy and, at times, horrifying. There was no "escape" from this routine whereas now we face overly dramatic monologs that grate (more than anything we might have faced before !). I just can't get onboard with the new glossy look, and the lame in-your-face sense of wonder now being pushed.

Van Halen -Why Can't This Be Love?




just the music.... no clip available !
I like the synth sounds in this one ...

Saturday, July 25, 2009

Bright Eyes - At The Bottom Of Everything



a scary song about a plane crash into the ocean.... to a happy tune ....
....wacked out indeed ...

Pumpkinhead Trailer



the creature in this movie is wicked thing .... good creature design

Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree



Ok, the original song was by the band Dawn. I'm not sure who is singing this version. It might be Dawn, or one of many other covers. I picked this music clip only because I liked it more than the others out there (at present). The original Dawn song/film clip can be found here.

I think this track might have been used on the TV show Lost, hence its inclusion here ... (chosen for all those who may have romantic sensibilities !)

ANITA SPRING-BLINK (STAY A LITTLE LONGER)



the song is much better than the clip I recon. She's over acting at the start of the clip. I'd have her less animated, the song and the words get the message out enough.

Crystal Stilts - Departure



an excellent clip. this shows you what you can do with brilliant editing, provided you have plenty of interesting footage. top notch.

Thursday, July 2, 2009

Pet Shop Boys - Jealousy



there are 2 you tube clips to this track but one is so out of sync that it's not worth posting and the other's embed code is disabled ...

Good song !

Innocent Blood Trailer



apologies for the poor everything in the clip here. there are no other you tube posts of better quality !

this is a good Vamp movie ! I really liked it.

However as with many horror films the ending is a bit dodgy. You can watch the entire film on You Tube in parts ...

Passion Pit - Moth's Wings



big sound, nice song ...

Wednesday, June 3, 2009

Procol Harum - A Whiter Shade of Pale



in the 90s there were some great Vietnam war tv shows like Tour of Duty and China Beach hence this song and others at this blog... they are awesome tunes and I'd probably still post them without having experienced the TV shows ...

Kate Bush - Rocket's Tail



Great Kate Bush track with a slide show of pics ... the song grows on you ...

Kate Bush - Rocket Man



there's a few factoids in this clip ... enjoy the song ! (the audio was best I could find to go with the average quality clip )

Watchmen Trailer 2



I thought this movie was awesome. It messes with history having the USA winning the Vietnam war and now on the brink of a nuclear confrontation with the USSR.

The heroes, who are portrayed as real kinda people, fight extremely dirty, and they actually kill folks without too much conscience ...

it's not for everyone, but I got a lot of milage out of this one ...

Tuesday, May 12, 2009

Ladyhawke - My Delirium



kinda 80s retro-ish sound ... nice

Drapht - Jimmy Recard



Ladies and Gentlemen, Australian hip hop ... !

Wednesday, April 22, 2009

Eels- Railroad Man



ok, this is a really good song, but all I could find on you Tube was the song with this amatuer clip. ignore the clip if you don't like it.

However, I must say that the clip is almost there. It has good elements but needs some polishing, some longer still camera shots, some stylish close ups of various objects, shots without the guy's face in it with his form as an image etc. The actor could be less animated too. :P

The Killers - Human



goooood song .... no clip here, just a good track ...

Friday, April 17, 2009

Near Dark Trailer (1987)



great Vampire movie. It's good viewing but the wind up at the end is a bit of a stretch. I really liked it .... you can watch the whole movie in parts on you tube.

sound is good, pic quality is average. nice song !

Doves - Kingdom of Rust Official Video



multi-layered ... kinda reminds me of a revved up 1960s spagetti western soundtrack

The Keep - Deadly Silver Crosses Scene - Tangerine Dream



The Keep was directed by Michael Mann. This movie is not for everyone but I really liked it. It had a great sound. Tangerine Dream also did the music featured in the underrated horror movie Near Dark, although this was more heavy.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Skeletons



From the new album, different from their previous material.
I really like this track.

Battlestar Galactica TV Series Intro 3



There's something to those old school ships, looking tough and armoured vs the new series Vipers and Cylon fighter craft. The New series capital ships tho, they are the cheese. Great series.

Beachwood Sparks - By Your Side



one of the best covers ever !
