Amazing. I ordinarily hate "Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer" (smug, ableist, grr...) but reimagining it as a Sacred Harp song does wonderful things. Have a listen. Really. Trust me, it's worth it. Hat tip to

My remix of vocals, sound effects and musical chords from the 1995 classic 'A Little Princess' directed by the brilliant Alfonso Cuaron [the same guy who did Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban]. With the possible exception of 'Go Out And Love Someone', this marks the most vocal samples I've extracted and sequenced in one track. Download the MP3 here [which I did; it's delicately beautiful].

The story of Lily and James Potter is one that gets a lot of attention throughout the books, but it's always in regards to Harry, and how horrible it must be for Harry to be without parents. But what about the two who actually died to save him? What would that horrible night have been like? This song is their last goodbye, sung to Harry in hopes that he'll meet them again someday.

( Lyrics )
When you're dancing with an enormous machine, it's even more important to get the timing correct, down to the microsecond.Thanks to
For its latest video, released on YouTube Monday night, pop band OK Go recruited a gang of very talented engineers to build a huge, elaborate Rube Goldberg machine whose action perfectly meshes with the band's song, "This Too Shall Pass," from the band's new album, "Of the Blue Color of the Sky."
For nearly four minutes -- captured in a single, unbroken camera shot -- the machine rolls metal balls down tracks, swings sledgehammers, pours water, unfurls flags and drops a flock of umbrellas from the second story, all perfectly synchronized with the song.
A few gasp-inducing, grin-producing moments, when the machine's action lines up so perfectly, you can only shake your head in admiration at the creativity and precision of the builders.
