Some girls in a car talking about Twilight while a guy drives to "30 Lives"

Well, The Motion Sick's "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)" has been caught up in the debate between the vampires and werewolves (or whatever the story is) as these girls argue about Twilight while driving in Hawai'i. The song is actually only on the radio during the last minute or so of the video, but I'd say the whole thing is a treat!

Flatten your stomach to "30 Lives"

I can't really understand a word of this, but it appears that these folks are using "30 Lives" to help teach you about getting ripped abs.

Robot Dancing to "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)"

To be honest, I've tolerated making music for people for this long while ever patiently awaiting the rise of artificially intelligent robots that take over the world. Until now, I've wept daily because I've never been able to fulfill my dream of writing music just for robots. Well, today, that dream came a little bit closer to being a reality. Here is a robot dancing to "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)"

Have a spare $3.4 million? "Surfin' Retiree" wants to sell you some beachfront property...

Embedding is disabled on this one, which kind of makes me angry, but these guys are using "Surfin' Retiree" to sell some $3.4 million beachfront property. That makes me laugh...

Fat-ass douchebag sits on tiny horse...while listening to "Surfin' Retiree"

This jerk thinks it's okay to sit on this tiny horse that can barely support him. I hate him. I like "Surfin' Retiree" though.

Putting and "Winged Bicycle"

For most people, The Motion Sick and golf go hand-in-hand...well, at least for this person who likes to putt (in slow motion) to "Winged Bicycle"

Hershey's Song and "Walk on Water"

What's better than a song about Hershey's? A song about Hershey's with The Motion Sick's "Walk on Water" playing in the credits...

Zombie dance to "30 Lives"

In honor of George Romero visiting us here in Boston to promote his new movie, _Survival of the Dead_, here's some dude that dances like he's a zombie or something, but at least he dances to "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)" even if he's undeadish...

Windsurfing and "Aquaman's Lament"

Someone windsurfing along to "Aquaman's Lament" by The Motion Sick. I will say that while the song is of legendary rock status, windsurfing looks pretty boring.

Skiing and "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)"

I've actually never been skiing, but if I did/do/will ever go, I will totally scoot along to The Motion Sick's "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)"

Opposites and "Losing Altitude"

I'll let the "filmmaker's" words say it all:

"Opposites exist in this world and whether its chaos and order or sadness and happiness they exist and we need to understand that without one thing the other would not exist."

Well, also, The Motion Sick's "Losing Altitude"

NSFW: Creepy takes a new turn with a naked cartoon lady swimming to "The Most Beautiful Dead Girl"

We hadn't quite had creepy like this yet. A naked cartoon lady (NSFW and probably in violation of Youtube's rules) swims and stands on a beach while listening to The Motion Sick's "The Most Beautiful Dead Girl."

Thanks for 100 views and for "30 Lives"

This individual made a video thanking people that another video they made has surpassed 100 views...and they thought The Motion Sick's "30 Lives" was the right accompaniment. I can't argue with them there.

Murray the Ghost Dog and "Thundarr"

Murray the Ghost dog vanishes and reappears with ease (and some bad editing) to the tune of "Thundarr"

The video we've all been waiting for! Funny animals set to "30 Lives!!!"

"30 Lives" and funny animals. Nothing more to say.

Shaving your head to "30 Lives"

I didn't think this video of some guy having his head shaved to "30 Lives" was all that weird really until I read the comments:
mec75mec75 Very sexy!
unesz1990 hi ! do you have a video that a girl shave for a man ?? head shave ??

These comments made me realize that it's quite possible that virtually every video on Youtube is actually some kind of fetish video. Wheelchair dog fetish? Giant-destroying-tiny-beings fetish? Workout fetish?!?!?! I am not even going to link to the pie-making video...

The point is, this blog gets creepier to me every single day. Make it stop!

"Tiny Dog" accompanying large goldfish

Talk about taxonomic transgression..."Tiny Dog" and GIANT goldfish (I think they are goldfish, but I really have no idea).

"30 Lives" is great for stop-motion pie making

Stop-motion pies and "30 Lives"

Some young girls being goofy at the library to "The Most Beautiful Dead Girl"

Yup, some young girls being goofy at the library to "The Most Beautiful Dead Girl."

The greatest video ever in the history of videos featuring The Motion Sick's "30 Lives" - a wedding first dance

I've already posted about this on our regular blog, so it's not quite new. However, this video is probably my favorite thing that has ever happened with any music that I was involved in making. These fine folks in Texas decided that they wanted to dance their first wedding dance to "30 Lives." They also managed to get everyone involved in doing the dance moves associated with the song. It brings joy to my otherwise cold heart!

Some crazy cooking/baking/taffy/whatever that doesn't involve any octopi, but does involve "30 Lives"

"30 Lives" and taffy...

Kid on a tricycle to "Winged Bicycle"

Here's a kid being pushed on a tricycle to the sounds of "Winged Bicycle"

Who wouldn't do some skate tricks to "The Most Beautiful Dead Girl" anyway?

Skateboarding to "The Most Beautiful Dead Girl"

A beautiful, heartfelt, and moving tribute to...an airplane?!?!?! Also, "Satellite"

"A Tribute to the Delta's great 767" - sure...what the heck? As someone who gets motion sick (true), I am not all that fond of air travel, but I guess it's better if it's soundtracked by "Satellite" by The Motion Sick.

AWESOME!!! "30 Lives" Karaoke

I love it, love it, love it! "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)" karaoke!

Dog Wheelchair and "Winged Bicycle"

Well, not one, not two, not three, but FOUR videos of a dog with a "wheelchair" set to the fine melodies of "Winged Bicycle," making for a beautiful triumph of dog over hardship.

I don't know if that's a worm, a fish, or human flesh, but it's being cut up to the sounds of "The Owls Are Not What They Seem"

Yuck yuck yuck yuck! Hey, it's "The Owls Are Not What They Seem" (instrumental)...oh, and yuck!

"Aquaman's Lament" performed by Miley Cyrus!

We are HUGE Hannah Montana fans, so when she decided to cover "Aquaman's Lament," we were delighted!

A totally sketchy video about cracking some software. Illegal and we don't endorse it, but hey, "30 Lives"

Not legal, not safe, not smart, but "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)" is good stuff...

More horrific than horses? Yes, these kids dancing to "Jean-Paul" disturbs me more...

Yup, some young girls moving their hips to "Jean-Paul" is extremely disturbing. Then, suddenly, their little male friend runs onto the scene in his underwear and shakes his butt. This video is bad, bad, bad. I don't like it. I want to stop it from existing, but I don't know that I want to pull our music from Youtube in some weird, sweeping motion to prevent it from being used by kids dancing or horses mating...hmmm...

Terrifyingly hypnotic video about a Barbie dance set to "Grace Kelly"

I think this awesomely hypnotic video is either used to get children to do their homework and eat their peas via subliminal behavior modification or it is to convince enemy spies to reveal their secrets. Also, it's set to "Grace Kelly" oddly enough...

Kind of digging this Mr. Bill-esque clay-man destruction video set to "30 Lives"

Another hit! Stop-motion clay figure destruction set to the upbeat bop of "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)" can make anyone's day better.

The unsurprising combination of Anime and "30 Lives"

Yup. Nothing shocking here...but it does include "30 Lives"

Some person, their baseball glove, their hopes and dreams, and "Losing Altitude"

Yup, "Losing Altitude" (instrumental) is a real tear-jerker...

Conserve Water! ...and listen to "Losing Altitude"

Neither is a bad idea. "Losing Altitude" instrumental reminds you not to waste water.

Octopus mutilation to "30 Lives"

Another yuck. This octopus is cooked and chopped to the delightful tune of "30 Lives"

Cardio for Indie Rockers to "30 Lives"

Also not a random one...in fact, we posted it, but here are some ladies working out to "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)" as part of Cardio for Indie Rockers!

Legit awesome arcade freestyle to "30 Lives"

This one is less random, but it's so awesome, that we can't resist posting it. This gent totally freestyles it on a DDR machine to "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)" for us!

USC Law School Photos...and "30 Lives"

While legally, "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)" is awesome, I have no idea why it suited these law students to choose it for their montage of tomfoolery...

They do have a countdown of reasons why they are awesome or something.

Photos of the Yamaha XJR set to "30 Lives"

I don't get it, but "30 Lives" and a motorcycle...

Make a coat hanger satellite antenna...while listening to "Satellite"

This one kind of makes sense. "Satellite" and satellite reception.

Not one, but TWO ways to repair a recoil on a petrol lawnmower using "30 Lives"

The title says it all. Instrumental "30 Lives" and petrol lawnmower repair.

Gibberish and Optical Effects

Some other language, some weird optical illusions effects, and "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)"

Runescape video game and "30 Lives"

Don't get it, but hey... "30 Lives"

Offensive video comparing Bush to Hitler. It used to be set to Green Day...

Yup, this is offensive and stupid and it used to use Green Day. Now, it uses "30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)" - ugh...

The disgusting video that started it all...horses mating to The Motion Sick

Yup. Not much to say. This video is not safe for eyeballs, but here it is...horses mating to the romantical instrumental version of "Some Lonely Day"

Welcome

Okay kids, things got really weird on Youtube. It's a long story, but our music is available to Youtube video creators for use as background in their videos. We ended up in some strange, strange places. The horse-mating video tipped us over the edge and we felt like we had to create this blog. So, welcome and prepare to be disturbed.
