Videos of the Week – Chaiyya Chaiyya

You’re saying, “What? What?” Chaiyya Chaiyya. If you went to see Inside Man with Denzel Washington, Clive Owen and Jodie Foster, you’ve heard this song at the beginning and at the end of the movie. In addition, it’s been played on CSI: Miami. It was originally from an Indian movie called, “Dil Se“, which to […]

Videos of the Week – Schoolhouse Rock

Back in the 1970’s, cartoons were the norm on Saturday mornings on the networks. Now, Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, PBS Kids and Nick Toons have pretty much taken over the kids TV market, but back in the day, you had some great cartoons. Now at :25 and :55 minutes past the hour, both ABC and CBS […]

A Preview of Videos of the Week

When I was writing the Suzyn Waldman post, I gave you a video from “Free to Be … You and Me”, a children’s television special that ran on ABC in 1974. It then led me to finding some Schoolhouse Rock videos which I loved growing up as a kid. This weekend, I’ll give you a […]

Videos of the Week – More Batman Cartoons

Almost exactly to the date, one month ago, I gave you some Batman cartoons from the 1968 Filmation series. YouTube member alanr447a has uploaded some more episodes since last month. Once again, I’ll paste his descriptions of the episodes. Bubi, Bubi, Who’s Got the Ruby? The Penguin steals the million-dollar Maharaja Ruby, and kidnaps Bruce […]

Videos of the Week – Liz Phair

I love having this blog because I can have anything I want here. Last week I had videos of Shandi Finnessey. This week, I’m going to give you videos of my favorite female singer, Liz Phair. Ever since I first listened to her, I knew she was special. And she’s fun in interviews as well. […]

"That's the Wrong Video"

Thanks to Newsday’s Neil Best who posted this on his blog, this is an early candidate for Video of the Week. Sometimes, local news broadcasts fail to check their rundowns and you get the wrong video. This video to accompany a story on Kevin Everett on a Florida TV station is not what the anchor […]

Videos of the Week

I haven’t done anything on Fang’s Bites fav Shandi Finneseey for quite some time. The last video I posted of her was back on May 23 and the last picture I posted of her was on May 19, so it’s time that I give Shandi her due and devote an entire post to her. This […]

Videos of the Week – College Football

Well, this is college football season so why not give you some old college football opens from the various networks? It’s always fun when you get rivalry games. The networks treat them with respect and seem to work overtime on the opens. So let’s see how they’ve evolved over the years. CBS started to broadcast […]

Videos of the Week – Batman Cartoons

Don’t ask me why, but I have been a fan of Batman since I was a kid. I liked the Batman TV series with Adam West and Burt Ward, but I preferred the 1968 Filmation series which was first shown on CBS, then aired on various outlets, most recently, the Cartoon Network and it’s sister […]

Videos of the Week

I’ve been away from the computer for the most part during this Labor Day Weekend so I forgot about Videos of the Week. Here’s a good theme for you. Since ESPN took over ABC Sports last year (the silly ESPN on ABC), I’m worried that people may forget what a powerhouse ABC Sports used to […]

Videos of the Week

Time for the Videos of the Week. I can safely say the best band touring right now is Rage Against the Machine. The guys of Rage without lead singer Zach de la Rocha were with former Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell for a while in Audioslave, but I do hope RATM does some new stuff. But […]

Videos of the Week

I forgot to post Videos of the Week! Well, since NFL season is coming up, that means we’ll be blessed or forced to listen to certain announcers. I’ve found that CBS’ crew for the AFC has been quite enjoyable since it returned to the NFL in 1998. Jim Nantz is ok, but guys like Greg […]

Videos of the Week

I’m watching “Beatles’ Biggest Secrets” on BBC America. Fascinating stuff so I give you some videos of my all time favorite band. I Am the Walrus from “Magical Mystery Tour” Yesterday live at Budokan Hey Jude from the David Frost Show Let It Be from the movie, “Let It Be”

Videos of the Week

I’m watching “Everday Italian” with my new favorite chef, Giada De Laurentiis, on the Food Network. In particular, the episode is entitled “Giada’s Bikini Ready Dinners“. Now, this reminded me of when I saw her show, “Giada’s Weekend Getaways” and saw her swimming in a pool in a nice one piece swimsuit. The video quality […]

Videos of the Week

Instead of doing music videos this week, I thought I would give you some vintage NFL TV opens from NBC and ABC. Here’s an open from NBC dating back to 1978 – 79, Oakland vs. Seattle when NBC had the rights to the AFC games. From 1983, the opening to the AFC Wild Card game […]

Videos of the Week

Last week, I gave my favorite group from the 1980’s, Lone Justice. Time to give you one of my favorites of this decade, KoRn. Y’all Want a Single: Freak on a Leash: Got the Life: Shoots and Ladders: Twisted Transistor:

More Lone Justice

Did I ever tell you that I love Lone Justice? Yes I did! Ok, here are a few more videos. Another live version of “I Found Love”. If this performance doesn’t blow you away, nothing will. “Sweet, Sweet Baby” from the same performance. “Wheels” – This gives me chills every time I watch it.

Videos of the Week – Lone Justice Videos

I’ve been a fan of Lone Justice and Maria McKee since the 1980’s. Now why Lone Justice didn’t become a bigger hit is beyond me. Maria’s energy on stage and voice should have been enough to make the band work. It only released two albums, then a couple of compilations and that was it. They […]

Videos of the Week

White Stripes – Icky Thump White Stripes – Icky Thump (Performed live on Later with Jools Holland) And the lovely Meg White with “Jack” (actually, that’s Jack Lawrence of The Raconteurs) mouthing Jack White’s voice. I don’t know why they did this, but we rarely see Meg talk so I posted this. And that’s Jack […]

Early Candidate for Video of the Week

This clip has been played on the Howard Stern Show on Sirius Satellite Radio. This is the Iron Sheik, formerly of the old WWF, going off on B. Brian Blair in an interview. It’s hilarious. “Suplex him! Put him in the Camel Clutch! Break his back! And then fuck his ass! Make him humble!”
