  The Top New Videos list is always full of interesting, current videos. It is always recommended that you have a look through the Top New Videos, but also have a look at these:
  - Upcoming Unsifted Videos - active video submissions that neither are published to the front page nor archived to the submitter's personal queue
- Have you seen a really funny, surprising, scary, interesting, cute or in any other way extra good quality video?

Post it here, and share it with the large community of video-interested users. And - you are guaranteed to find more very good videos here already!
  Mind you, we only share videos you discover that someone else has made; if you "self link," by posting a video you have made, have posted or have interests in, you risk the ban hammer - read the posting guidelines before posting. The sift is NOT for promoting your own videos - it is for sharing videos others have made.

The music fucking kills it. Couldn't they have taken the 2 minutes and removed all the clicks and pops?

The music is fine in itself, but it just seems shitty with the lousy noise.

Aww.. I kinda liked the mood of the music. What would you suggest?

Well, the mood is just fine in it. But the scratches, clicks and pops make me crazy. I'm too OCD for that!

I like the clickypop music. It kind of reminds me of Katamari Damacii's Blue Orb

Understated title is understated.
