I don't like the song. In fact i don't like electronic music at all. But i must say the video is awesome! The color, the animation, the clothing. It's all really cool.

Shamu is the stage name which is shared by numerous adult male OR female orcas at the SeaWorld parks.

Holy Guacamole. I like it. It's sure not what I expected as a follow up to the austere chicken-girl video. ThatGo, keeps pushing the envelope of what a music video is supposed to be.

However, and I hesitate to say this, since I don't want to discourage ThatGo in any way, but this work isn't in the same class as "Jerk It". I appreciate the intentional lo-fi aesthetic, but "Ponytail" is too obviously a rush job that didn't get the time or attention needed to make it truly great.

Like the original work. Super MGMT inspired. Especially Time to Pretend (music video). You both use the great flashing lights, awesome duplication technique, crazy animal backgrounds, and indie/Indian aesthetic to achieve that psychadelic effect. VERY original. Especially when you duplicated the videos of the dancers, when you could have just duplicated MGMT's work.
