If you’re anywhere nearly as cool as me then you’d do well to have Colin Munroe’s take on Kanye West’s ‘Flashing Lights’ on your playlist. Discovered the video the other day while I was on the Kanye blog and the melody was stuck in my head since.
Today I found the actual track on dude’s myspace and I’ve been listening to it on repeat all afternoon.
Pay attention to the video below. Its half of why I love the song so much. For me, its one of only a handful of videos I can think of where the video balances the abstract with the concrete well enough to actually ‘fit’ the song it envelopes.

p.s. to my 5 loyal readers and the rest of you, I’m quite aware that my blog has become little more than a collection of “links I like” of late.
Sooooooooooo?
