Youtube! Moving Pictures! With Sound!

Youtube is pretty great. It's basically an endless source of amusement. Other than interesting things that are from other sources and end up on youtube, like funny commercials, music videos, and clips from tv shows, there is also a plethora of content generated purely for youtube. Youtube shows can be anything; drama, mystery, comedy, news, personal diary, makeup tutorials.
One of my favorites is this video made by charlieissocoollike a popular British youtube-er. He was contacted by musician Ben Folds to make a video for a song written by the author Nick Hornby and set to music by Folds, a new album released September 24th.



Another great music project on youtube is pomplamooseMusic. A music duo that re-creates popular songs in their own studio, they film all the recording and mix it into one video.



They have also had an encounter with Ben Folds and his new project. They recorded a song from Ben's new album with Nick Hornby, Lonely Avenue, with Ben and Nick.



Youtube has become an invaluable resource for young artists looking to spread their talent with the world.
