2. ooh! Thanks! I never would have thought of looking for Gould on youtube. Sweet.
My faves? Videos from bands I loved 10, 20, 30 years ago, that I never knew existed, or haven't seen in that long. Takes me back.

I also like the extreme slow-motion studies.

Also lots of videos of mid-20th-century golden age singers on TV variety shows like the Bell Telephone Hour. You don't see that any more on TV.

37. You beat me to it. Apache is the reigning champion.
No matter how many times you watch it, it just never stops being funny.

Wilford Brimley's "Beetis Dance Mix" is pretty inspired, too.
