putting director Michel Gondry in the tags (pretty famous dude)

You have been awarded 1 Power Point for fixing the embed code for Dead Pool video Björk - Hyper-Ballad - Dir. Michel Gondry. Thank you for helping maintain VideoSift's reliability.

very michel gondry!

It's so funny you say that Deputydog. I had no idea that it was Michel Gondry, and yet, while watching the episode (this music video in particular), I was thinking "this style seems familiar...". Ha, it all makes sense now.

EDIT: And oh how I love this song so much. And here I was worried they'd run out of interesting songs for Season 2.

interesting fact: this video (the whole episode actually) was directed by michel gondry, the genius responsible for eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, be kind rewind and loads of incredible music videos.

this is actually a great little tune aswell.

Tags for this video have been changed from 'Michel Gondry, David Cross, poo' to 'Michel Gondry, David Cross, poo, city, france, usa, shit, eat, toilet, david cross' - edited by Eklek

Amazing! I can't be the only one who wondered what was slightly off about the comments. The fact that this is Sift Talk was completely forgotten.

My first video was some kid playing on one of those dance machines in an arcade but now seems to have gone. I don't think I really liked it that much but thought it might get me going. The earliest video on my list now is this;

Thank you for your thoughtfulness. The link you gave me is actually a disabled embed, but I very quickly found a fix from dailymotion. Thank you for the heads up, once again!

MKONE wants to be an ass about tags... meh.... I can only get SO steamed about someone being asinine. After all, I vowed to downvote any and all videos by the Foo Fighters

(I'm joking. I upvoted the one by Michel Gondry)

Seriously, if people can have "auto-upvote" for things they like (and I think we ALL have them) then surely they can have "auto-downvote"

If he'd doing it based on his dislike of a type of VIDEO that's one thing, but if he were doing it for a type of PERSON that'd be another. This is, after all, video sift, not popularity sift right?

Copied comment from Thylan on source video of parody; that shows how truly mediocre that video was.
