This is about the OK Go songs from songwars, which got a bit of a mixed reception, but won in the end. Here's the thing - I'm rather ill at the moment, to put it mildly, and their stuff always manages to to cheer me up a bit. Apart from the two songs I chose during the game, there are more and I just wanted to share them (youtube links to follow).

That one is a completely different verssion of the winning song done with bells and smartphones. If you watch it, you might want to skip the first three or four minutes before it actually gets going.

Writing's on the wall is another personal fave, albeit a bit arty farty - the video is all about optical illusions, but I think it's a decent song, too. Here's the link:

This one isn't one of my favourites, but the video is quite good:

And one more just for the hell of it:

Like I say, these have helped me keep going in a difficullt time. If anyone else gets something positive out of them, all the better. If not, then feel free to shut the fuck up, please. Cheers.

The thread was supposed to be about the songs and the videos rather than me but, still, many thanks to Saturnalian, MaliA, Grim... and Ebeneezer Goode (Findus Fop) for the kind remarks. Much appreciated.
