OK go

[BigDlacrosse17]

I haven't been on TLF in a while and when I searched for ok go I was suprised no one has started a thread about them... Apparently they posted the treadmill video on youtube in hopes to promote their music. Probably cheapest yet coolest music videos I've ever seen...

Thoughts?

[laolax]

i heard they did it live too at the vma's or something

but yeah i saw the video and its pretty sweet

[rjattack19]

haha i really like the treadmill video...how did they get so many treadmills? lol

[Leonid]

with their millions of dollars...

[rjattack19]

i thought that they werent big tho??? hence the fact that they are trying to advertise their music via youtube, and the fact that they made a video them selves

[TRELAX1201]

that video is so cool. I mena there song is catchy too, but the video is amazing looking

[dragonlax]

its easily the greatest music video ever made

[BigKLaxer]

And I think I'm the only one here who actually likes their music. The vid's cool, but they're probably one of my favorite bands right now.

[BigDlacrosse17]

nope, i like their songs as well... probably one of my favorite bands right now too.

[czechinthepipes]

that was really cool, id be too afraid to do that on my treadmill.

[Despise Purity]

I saw the treadmill one a few weeks back, I think I actually first saw it as a facebook group for people who wanted to use their mill for dancing instead of running lol... But the song is catchy and the video is amazing.

[Mad-Max]

thats pretty sweet.

[ramslac05]

i strated liking them when that had "get over it" on madden 03

who remembers that??

[Irishlax22]

That video was pretty awesome. However Im not a big fan of there music.

[BigKLaxer]

I saw "Do What You Want" on some commercial so I looked them up and found that I liked alot of their songs.

They still arent that big, they have 2 cd's nether of which made mass amounts of money. But i saw them live a year ago, and it was amazing. But them on mtv now, its another good band dead.

[LinkPlaysLax]

i give them credit. thats good choreography and i know id probably eat it hardcore trying to dance over treadmills like that. theyre cool in my book

[BwineLAX42]

Im pretty sure treadmills are used all the time in music videos just not to the cool extent of that. I remember watching this thing on MTV about 4 years ago where N'SYNC was getting ready for a concert and there was a treadmill on the stage for justin timberlaker to pretend he was doing the moonwalk.

And the part where the jump onto the moving treadmills must have takin' a lot of practice cause I know I would deffinetly fallen over. And I do remember seeing that on MTV.

[AttackMan17]

I bet that took forever to get everything right.

I would have killed myself if i were to try that.

But, thats cool how they make their own videos.

[devillax57]

Wow, I guess I'm the only one who's not obsessed or thinks they are obsessed on here. Most of the people know one song. I really don't think the song is that great at all...actually it's simply not good. Sure the treadmill part was cool, but these guys are never going to be able to live up to the hype that surrounds them now. One hit wonders IMO.

who remembers that??
Yeah that was an okay song. I still don't like them, I don't like the lead singer's voice. "Do What You Want" was on NHL 06 and later a JC Penney commecial.

[WClax17]

They have been my favorite band for a long time, i've known about them for a long time

[laxkay841]

I've known about them for a while too. I like them, and I have their first CD. Actually, I met them at HFStival, and overall they seem like pretty cool guys. For the last 5 minutes or so of their set they did this really goofy dance, and I have to give them credit for that because that basically made my day. So after seeing that dance, the video seems to fit their style perfectly.
