Back in 1987, rap was still a very new and very underground concept for white people. So what exactly is “rapping?” Back on the Canadian 80′s show Switchback, Stu Jeffries tries to explain to new musical fad with the help from some ‘talented’ kids.
It’s difficult to find great art that wasn’t inspired by some other great piece. The same is true in film. Even the great Steven Spielberg took inspiration from many famous films when creating Indiana Jones: Raiders Of The Lost Arc. StooTV took video from 30 different classic adventure films and compared them to memorable scene in Raiders. The similarities are too close to be a coincidence. The video is featured on Devour.
This vintage video from 2007 has recently resurfaced becoming popular again. Elton John was a guest on a talk show when a guest asked him if he would make a song from the manual for his new oven. Jokingly, Elton John accepted the challenge, but in the end, knocks the song out of the park. Hopefully, it shows up on iTunes soon, because it sure is catchy.
This vintage black and white clip from the 1950′s was posted in November, but just went viral now. A couple in Toulouse, France decided a regular on the ground wedding was just too boring, so they decided get married on the wild side. The bride and groom tied the knot while standing on a tight rope, with no net underneath. Now that’s an anniversary you’ll never forget.
This 80′s talk show guest really belongs there. He just screams the 1980′s, from his sweatshirt, to his hair do, his pants, and, finally, that epic ‘stache. He entertains the crowd with an amazing rendition of Georgia On My Mind. The video is featured by VideoGum.
