The new music video from OK Go, made in partnership with Chevrolet. OK Go set up over 1000 instruments over two miles of desert outside Los Angeles. A Chevy Sonic was outfitted with retractable pneumatic arms designed to play the instruments, and the band recorded this version of Needing/Getting, singing as they played the instrument array with the car. The video took 4 months of preparation and 4 days of shooting and recording. There are no ringers or stand-ins; Damian took stunt driving lessons. Each piano had the lowest octaves tuned to the same note so that they'd play the right note no matter where they were struck. Many thanks to Chevy for believing in and supporting such an insane and ambitious project, and to Gretsch for providing the guitars and amps.

IKR!

3:51 "Did we get it?" "No The Lens Cap was on." :D In a world of free music, iTunes still amazes me. How does a program that makes you pay money for music stay in the business for so long? I figured it out. This is one of the few Music Video's I would actually buy on iTunes.

This is what we should put our tax money into!

@Benolds98 Nah he uses his butt. It is a lot more coordenated thanhis face
Benolds98 Says:
Skrillex assigns each key on his keyboard a different noise, then he smashes his face into his keyboard and calls it music.

johnnykaka66 Says:
These guys are awesome. The rest of the music world should be watching this and hanging their heads
SpazzyPolarBear7 Says:
Guys, stop criticizing them. Of COURSE it's not going to perfectly match the song, or your standards. He was driving a car AND singing, going about 40 miles per hour throughout the whole song on a bumpy and curvy path. Maybe they DID have to edit it a little to make it perfect, but you try it, alright? At least they did it, and it sounded very similar to the original song. You have no idea how many times a day I have to hear about Adele's boring music video, while this goes unnoticed.
araremonkey Says:
Amazing.
TheNightcoreLord Says:
yeah you can hear it. but my guess would be that the team who modified the car also worked on the transmission.
SquirrelsOfWrath Says:
At first I was like, "awww this is going to be some sort of rip off of Julian Smith's Techno Jeep," then I was like "HOLY GOODNESS, THIS IS REAL!!" O.O
xMILWEEDx Says:

TheG4merDude Says:

TvHead321 Says:
thumbs up if krogzilla brought you here
UnusGrunus Says:
This is my way to work.
STLShu Says:
I've never heard of skrillex till now but it doesn't sound good to me. Is it anything like dubstep, cause I don't know if I can handle another fad like that going around. Dubstep is what happens when we let Asian, Teenage-Nerds chose whats going to be cool. It's techno wrapped in a different box.
Hardlinerjapan Says:
Hehe maybe. That's a matter of perspective. One thing that is difficult to argue with is that this whole vid is FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE. And the track sucks ass.
