Strange Vids Featuring TMS: The greatest video ever in the history of videos featuring The Motion Sick’s “30 Lives” – a wedding first dance

Skateboarding to “The Most Beautiful Dead Girl”
Strange Vids Featuring TMS: A beautiful, heartfelt, and moving tribute to…an airplane?!?!?! Also, “Satellite”
“A Tribute to the Delta’s great 767” – sure…what the heck? As someone who gets motion sick (true), I am not all that fond of air travel, but I guess it’s better if it’s soundtracked by “Satellite” by The Motion … Read More

Well, not one, not two, not three, but FOUR videos of a dog with a “wheelchair” set to the fine melodies of “Winged Bicycle,” making for a beautiful triumph of dog over hardship.
Strange Vids Featuring TMS: I don’t know if that’s a worm, a fish, or human flesh, but it’s being cut up to the sounds of “The Owls Are Not What They Seem”
Yuck yuck yuck yuck! Hey, it’s “The Owls Are Not What They Seem” (instrumental)…oh, and yuck!

Strange Vids Featuring TMS: More horrific than horses? Yes, these kids dancing to “Jean-Paul” disturbs me more…
Yup, some young girls moving their hips to “Jean-Paul” is extremely disturbing. Then, suddenly, their little male friend runs onto the scene in his underwear and shakes his butt. This video is bad, bad, bad. I don’t like it. I … Read More

Strange Vids Featuring TMS: Terrifyingly hypnotic video about a Barbie dance set to “Grace Kelly”
I think this awesomely hypnotic video is either used to get children to do their homework and eat their peas via subliminal behavior modification or it is to convince enemy spies to reveal their secrets. Also, it’s set to “Grace … Read More
Strange Vids Featuring TMS: Kind of digging this Mr. Bill-esque clay-man destruction video set to “30 Lives”

Strange Vids Featuring TMS: USC Law School Photos…and “30 Lives”
While legally, “30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)” is awesome, I have no idea why it suited these law students to choose it for their montage of tomfoolery… They do have a countdown of reasons why they are awesome or something.
Strange Vids Featuring TMS: Photos of the Yamaha XJR set to “30 Lives”
I don’t get it, but “30 Lives” and a motorcycle…
Strange Vids Featuring TMS: Make a coat hanger satellite antenna…while listening to “Satellite”
This one kind of makes sense. “Satellite” and satellite reception.
Strange Vids Featuring TMS: Not one, but TWO ways to repair a recoil on a petrol lawnmower using “30 Lives”

Strange Vids Featuring TMS: Gibberish and Optical Effects
Some other language, some weird optical illusions effects, and “30 Lives (Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix)”

Okay kids, things got really weird on Youtube. It’s a long story, but our music is available to Youtube video creators for use as background in their videos. We ended up in some strange, strange places. The horse-mating video tipped … Read More
