Hi you there

Here we are again with some important news.

R.E.M. splits up after so many years; The Rolling Stones, fifty years on and still going strong; the death of Amy Winehouse, and some more.

Enjoy them!


OK Go is a rock band from Chicago. It is a band composed by four boys. Until 2005, OK Go was an alternative group and very rare. One day, they decided to be held by Trish Sie, choreographer and sister of the singer of the band for their first video, A million ways.
In this video, the band is dancing in the backyard of the singer’s house. This choreography by Sie, turned them into a viral phenomenon. They already have more than nine million downloads.
In this choreographies, Sie tries to play the games she played with her brother when they were young, because they loved recording videos. The success of the videos and choreography created for OK Go, turned Trish Sie in a desired woman by the other rock bands. She has worked for Levi’s, Häagen Dazs or Google, for which she created a music video with OK Go All is not lost.  OK Go has earned considerable fame for their videos, and these videos are shared on sites like YouTube. These videos combine all that we enjoy doing, dance, sing and record them in home videos. In his videos we can find treadmills, dogs, or paint. YouTube is full of parodies of his videos, and both (the choreographer and the band) have become famous very fast because of it.
