Who says white men can't dance?

This is the best thing I have ever seen.

ETA: OK Go revolutionizes choreography for treadmills. I don't even want to think about how many takes they must have gone through. AMAZING.

Thanks, that was hysterical :-)

OK Go also did a live version of the music video at the MTV VMAs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNU33UVYhRE).

I was just about to comment that.

That was effin' awesome.

14 takes. Or 8. I forget. But they only made it all the way through twice.

Well, that pretty much pwns everything.

Awesome! I think my favorite was "She shook me all night long." :)

The neat thing about the OK Go video is that the simplest things look the best. When they're jumping and swinging it's not nearly as cool-looking as just walking or stepping from one treadmill to the next.

Haha, I love those OK Go dancing videos. The treadmill one is amazing. My favorite bit is when they ice-skate from one to the next.

I want to learn the "Million Ways" dance, but my friends aren't with me on that. :)

Non-sequitur time. I saw this in the journal of another friend of mine.. I don't know if you read her and she's friends only, but I thought you would appreciate this anyway...
