Yo Gabba Gabba posted a couple sweet videos from their upcoming "School"-themed episode. (Note to YGG-wise -- we started school a month ago 'round here, but anyway...) My favorite of the two is definitely the retro-sounding "What Story Do You Want To Hear?" from Dr. Dog (of course), featuring a total Schoolhouse Rock video tribute. It's a great song and video.

Video: "Apples and Honey" - The Macaroons
Nearly a year ago I praised "Apples and Honey", a new track from The Macaroons. Rosh Hashanah is just a week away, so this new video is just about perfect. (It's also totally appropriate for non-Jewish viewers, like myself.)

Video: "Preposition" - The Bazillions
Their last video, for "Tommy Got in Trouble," had the advantage of being for a great song. It was a good video for Twin Cities band The Bazillions, but their new one (at least to YouTube) is even better. "Preposition" is a decent song, but this video is Schoolhouse Rock-worthy.

Video: "Bookmobile Submarine" - John Hadfield
John Hadfield is turning to music videos to help him fund his new album -- he says on his Facebook page that proceeds from downloading this new video on iTunes or CDBaby will go toward funding his new album.
Probably worth 99 cents just for the idea of writing a song called "Bookmobile Submarine" and then talking about microfiche, which is a joke that I think you have to be, like, at least 23 years old to get. Decent animation, it's a fun little 2:30 video.

Video: "Green Eleven" - Todd McHatton
As self-animated videos songs go, this one from Todd McHatton, for "Green Eleven" off the recently-released Sundays at the Rocket Park, is a pretty good one. It's a mostly sunny animated video -- even the clouds sing, so, yeah, pretty cheerful.

Video: "Cars & Trucks" - Sugar Free Allstars
This time for real.
The second video from Sugar Free Allstars' Funky Fresh and Sugar Free resides (literally) at the corner of Funky St. and Groovin' Ln. (Also: liked the P-Kitty reference.)
