    As much as I love the melody, as much as I love the lyrics, as much as I love the video as a whole, them showing all the people who worked on setting this up at the end of the video makes it all even better.

      One thing I also find funny is the complete lack of excitement/celebration by the boys compared to most of their other videos, where as soon as the shot finishes they celebrate immediately. That, in combination with the pre-existing paint on them, tells me that a number of takes got all the way to the end but weren't good enough, and they had to reset the whooole machine. Absolute insanity.

      I just went down a rabbit hole about this video - this was the 86th take. And it often took HOURS between each take to set everything up again. I don't know how much praise they got for this, but it wasn't enough.

      The dominos? Soo, not the piano dropping and breaking, or the broken television or the water system or the bucket pyramid or the paper planes or the marble system or the balloons or like y'know, every other part of the video? The dominos were practically the easiest part to set up

    • @extrahourinthepit
      @extrahourinthepit 8 років тому +7

      Black science guy you saw at the mall today Well,yes,the piano is expensive and stuff,but if you have to reset the TV you just stack it away and get a "new" one.
      Whereas with the dominos,you have to take every single one,and delicately put it back on top of say an LP,and if it falls over you've got to start again.
      Also,the dominos had to be set up again on EVERY take.

    This song is monumental for me. My dad showed me this music video when I was 12, and I absolutely fell in love. The words speak to my heart, and I’ve always been able to rely on the beauty and youthfulness of this song to lift my spirits in my darkest of days. After all these years and now being 23, I tattooed the lyrics “let it go, this too shall pass” on my wrist so that I can always be reminded of that wisdom and encouragement. A tattoo I know I’ll never regret. OK Go, you’ve truly influenced my life so positively. Thank you❤️

    Four examples of energy transfers for anyone that needs it:
    When the dominos fell, it transferred kinetic energy from one domino to the next.
    When the lights turned on, energy transferred from PE to electrical.
    When the umbrellas fell, energy transferred from gravitational potential to kinetic.
    When the car started rolled back, the car transferred from mechanical potential to mechanical kinetic.

    It's interesting going back and watching this again because you can tell that OK Go has gotten a lot better at not reacting to crazy stuff happening around them. There were a lot of parts in the second half where the members couldn't help looking to the side instead of at the camera and a couple times where it's obvious they just barely made it to their places in time.
    Of course, this doesn't diminish the impressiveness of this video in the slightest. They are just as creative and good at playing music as they are now. It's just now they're used to doing crazy music videos and have a much better budget.

All countries will do what it takes so not more than a set percentage of important workforce are infected at once, just like now.
