WATCH IT: Bruno Mars "The Lazy Song" (Nez, dir.)

While Shatner continues to plague us with Priceline ads, Leonard Nimoy enjoys the lazy life in this alternate version of Bruno Mars "The Lazy Song." When he's not wandering around the neighborhood and scaring the local Ginger kids, he's at home smoking weed and chilling out. May the force be with him. --> watch "The Lazy Song

WATCH IT: Lupe Fiasco "Words I Never Said" (Sanaa Hamri, dir.)

Much like Bush (no relation) had no way to foretell the implications of releasing a single called "Speed Kills" a few weeks before September 11, 2001, it's hard to predict how this new Lupe Fiasco video — with a message of mind/speech control and lyrics that begin with the line, " I really think the war on terror is a bunch of bullshit" — will play the day after Osama Bin Laden was killed by U.S. forces. --> watch "Words I Never Said"

BOOKED: Death Cab For Cutie - Tim Nackashi, dir. (LIVE, SCRIPTED)

If a sitcom like 30 Rock can pull off a live-to-air stunt episode, then why can't a music video pull off something similar. 

Death Cab For Cutie will be making history with a live, all-in-one take, scripted music video for new single "You Are A Tourist" — It's not a live concert webcast, but an actual conceptual video.

Directed by Tim Nackashi — who's credits include OK Go "WTF" and a 360 explore it yourself clip for Craig Wedren —  and conceptualized by longtime Death Cab visual collaboration Aaron Stewart-Ahn, the video will be produced and filmed and performed LIVE  on Tuesday, April 5th at 7pm EST/4pm PST via www.youareatourist.com...

WATCH IT: Joy Formidable "Whirring" (Christopher Mills, dir.)

Director Christopher Mills delivers another one of his should-be trademarked multi-layered post-heavy videos, this time with Joy Formidable as explorers in a fantastical house. The virtual camera darts all around as the band explores various rooms and realities before alighting upon a performance set-up that's like the cover of Loveless come to life. --> watch "Whirring"
