Video: "Pillow Fort Pillow Fight" - Secret Agent 23 Skidoo

With his album The Perfect Quirk coming out this week, I guess Secret Agent 23 Skidoo wanted to celebrate in style.  While I would've thought that skydiving and running a "Year of the Weird" contest which nets the winner free entry to any Skidoo concert for the rest of their life would have been enough, he also went down a more conventional album-promotion path by releasing (earlier this month) the video for "Pillow Fort Pillow Fight."

Nobody can say Skidoo isn't throwing himself into this, what with (lip-synching) fresh flows while rockin' one of the most delightfully absurd outfits you will ever see anyone struttin' around in.

Video: "Tell Me It All" - Frances England

Yay for new music from Frances England!   (Blink of an Eye , out on August 6.)  Just as cool, yay for new video from Frances England.

England doesn't produce many videos, though when she does, they're pretty striking (remember "Tricycle")?  This new video, for "Tell Me It All" off the new disk, is also memorable.  It's sweet and wistful (matching the tone of the song perfectly), but the thing most viewers will probably remember is the giant stuffed animal ("Big Ted," designed by Donna Wilson) with the jaunty sense of style and playfulness.
