Though not much of a fan of Gotye, I was delighted when CDK's dance video for Somebody That I Used to Know recently went viral. Unorthodox choreography is my jam. Here are some of my favorites.

Celui qui tombe. Choreography by Yoann Bourgeois.

Kenzo World starring Margaret Qualley. Directed by Spike Jonze. Choreography by Ryan Heffington.

Steve Reich / Come Out. Dancers and director unknown. Choreography by Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker. I believe De Keersmaeker may also be the brunette dancer, but don't hold me to it because prosopagnosia. If the audio sounds familiar to you, you're probably a fan of MF Doom's America's Most Blunted.

Sia / Chandelier. Dancer, Maddie Ziegler. Choreography by Ryan Heffington.

Welcome Home. Dancer, FKA Twigs. Directed and choreography by Spike Jonze.

And here's the CDK video that inspired this post. Choreography and direction by Sergio Reis. Almost as impressive to me in this one is the clothing.

"Taking the Highest Average score from each year (with over 1k reviews) let's see how different the Academy Awards canon would look if Letterboxd chose the Oscars' winners for best film. This list excludes Documentaries, Shorts , Concert films and Limited Series."

I agree with much of this.

I disagree most with 2007. There's no question in my mind that No Country For Old Men is a better film than There Will Be Blood.

Childish Gambino's new video may be his best yet, which is saying something. Give it a watch or two and then check out the lyrics.

The less this video and song make sense to you, the more I would encourage you to check the analysis of the lyrics on Genius. And yeah, I could have done without the Nudy part, too.

If you're one of those folks who has a mom worth celebrating, remember to give her a call. It's Mothers' Day, Fool!:

What. The. Hell?! Of course, it's from Mr. T's Be Somebody or Be Somebody's Fool:

A playlist of every glorious episode of the beautifully bizarre, Don't Hug Me I'm Scared.

If you don't know the program, it's a British web series done with puppets in the vein of a children's television show. But it is absolutely not for children. Do not watch it with your children.

Hi-Fi is a music video promoting the Bella Vista Social Club, a bar in Siena, Italy.

Exactly what it says on the tin.

Tomohiro Okazaki is an extraordinary stop-motion animator from Japan. Here's a ton of his matchstick work edited together:

You may know Bridget Everett from the sweet HBO show, Somebody Somewhere. If you do, you will be positively shocked at Gynecological Wonder, her cabaret Comedy Central special.

Absolutely NSFW. Depending on where you live, it may not even be safe for home.

Oh, and yes, that is Ad-Rock from the Beastie Boys on guitar.
