You saw the trailer, now watch the actual video from chorally-approved BIlly Kelly and Davy Jones. What's the movie term for "hair wrangler," because he or she was the hardest working person on that set.
(You know, I now realize that when I saw a very-closely-shorn Kelly at Kindiefest in May, it was just a cry for help.)

Video: "Who Needs the Junk?" - The Sippy Cups
OK, yes, this is pretty much just a two-minute ad for One Small Step and their Boycott the Baggie (ad) campaign. I get that. But it is also a catchy new song from the Bay Area band The Sippy Cups, a band that hasn't put out new music in some time now, so that's why it's worth listening to. And it does fit into their pro-environment worldview. So with all that caveating, press play and enjoy some power-pop accompanied by crazy janitor-based visuals.

Video: "Hula Hoop to Da Loop" - Keller Williams
Enjoying listening to "Hula Hoop to Da Loop" from the forthcoming Keller Williams album Kids? Of course you are. But maybe you're more of a visually-stimulated family. Then check out this video, featuring Williams, a display of his looping prowess, and a display of his (and others') hula-hooping prowess. Fun.
Video: "Googly Eyes" - Caspar Babypants
Has Chris Ballew AKA Caspar Babypants released a bad music video yet? The answer, methinks, is no. His latest in his minimalist classics is for "Googly Eyes" from his upcoming album This Is Fun! (released Nov. 2nd). A pen, some household objects (the calculator made me laugh), and a pair of googly eyes (natch) -- that's all you need, really. Well, I suppose a good editor helps, too. Watch this video, then cheer up and smile.

Video: "Night Mantra" - Renee & Jeremy
LA's Renee & Jeremy go back to their first album It's a Big World for this, their latest video for "Night Mantra." I applaud the mother in the simple but nicely done video for having more patience with her slow-to-sleep child than I might have. The video reminds me just how much I love the way it takes forever for the song to fade away. "Sleep now in your room," indeed.

Video: "Robot" - The Baby Grands
Turns out their teaser video was slightly apropos. The Baby Grands, whose new album The Baby Grands II comes out Nov. 16th (even your preschooler could probably guess how many albums they've released, have produced their first video for the album. It's for the song "Robot" and features a boogie-ing robot. No surprise they prefer Android operating systems...
