I'm almost ready to end the listening party for Los Lobos' album of Disney covers called (appropriately enough) Los Lobos Goes Disney, but here's a new video for the utterly awesome leadoff track, "Heigh Ho." It's like one of those YouTube mashups except it's officially sanctioned and makes perfect sense, though watching the dwarves march with Los Lobos' voices coming out of their mouths is a little odd...

Video: "Easy Rider" (Live) - Ralph's World
New music from Ralph's World. According to Gwyneth, who filmed this at the DC-area hotbed of kids music Jammin' Java this track will be on the next Ralph's World album. Some nifty chord and guitar work, a loping melody, and another addition, to Ralph's extended canon of vehicle-based songs. Seriously, there's pretty much a full album's worth of wheeled songs.

Video: "Tiny Telephone" - Recess Monkey
The only thing cuter than the winsome "Tiny Telephone" from Recess Monkey's Field Trip is the game of tic tac toe in this, the video for the song. Who knew Daron and Drew lived across the street from one another? Methinks this is common in rainy Seattle...

Video: "What I've Learned" - Readeez
Video: "Ed" - Clementown
I already mentioned this video in my review of Polkabats and Octopus Slacks, the debut CD from Clementown, based on the poetry and pictures of Calef Brown. But now it's been posted in a much larger format to YouTube. So you can enjoy the dreamy soundscape accompanying Brown's art (and words). I love the way it looks old -- is there a computer macro for that the way you can make any video look like a Ken Burns documentary?

Video: "The Teens" - Recess Monkey
One of my favorite tracks from Recess Monkey's Field Trip is the Elvis Costello homage "The Teens." Now the band's got Daron Henry in the goofy (but kinda tecnically advanced) video for the song, starring as Nineteen, Eighteen, Seventeen, Sixteen, Fifteen, Fourteen, Thirteen, and, er, Twelve...teen.
