I don’t think I can sum up my Valentine’s Day in a few words. I’m just glad I was able to spend the time with someone who I connect with. Whether it was eating crepes on 4th street in San Rafael, a massive pillow fight in San Francisco, or cuddled up on the futon watching Moon (which was brilliant); I can safely say I like where I am right now.

Björk – Wanderlust: Officially my favorite. The rest are in no order whatsoever. Anyway, I bought the massive LP for this single, which came with it’s own 3D glasses for the ‘enhanced’ version.
Chad VanGaalen – Molten Light: Super bizarre but simply incredible.
She & Him – Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?: You couldn’t find a cuter music video.
Radiohead – House of Cards: Gorgeous. They never cease to push the boundaries of art.
The Mae Shi – Run to Your Grave: Crazy video for an even crazier band.
Weezer – Pork & Beans: If you didn’t enjoy this video, then what the hell are you doing on a computer?
Portishead – We Carry On: Wow…just, wow.
Girl Talk – Play Your Part (Part 1): Not official (as far as I know) but perfectly cut.
Flying Lotus – Parisian Goldfish: This video below contains some explicit cartoon scenes, flashing lights and is FOR OVER 18’s ONLY. I repeat, not work friendly…however, on so many levels of awesome.
Beyonce – Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It): It makes me wanna get up shake my booty…well, maybe not, but fun nonetheless.
Justice – Stress: Violent and fucked up, therefore making it an amazing video by my standards.
WORST MUSIC VIDEO
MGMT – The Youth: Just utter garbage…ugh!
Best Music Video I Can’t Show You
Sigur Rós – Gobbledigook: Click the picture to be taken to where you can watch it. It’s brilliant.
