Posted by Peter in Johnny Cash, Music, Virals on March 16th, 2011
Here’s another of our videos celebrating St Patrick’s Day on 17 March.
Roll up Johnny Cash and Jimmie Rodgers to duet on perhaps the most powerful of all classic Irish songs; Danny Boy.
Go on, shed a tear, you’d not be human if you didn’t.

Strange Japanese Dancing Dog
Here’s a very strange looking dog – a Japanese Chin, apparently – doing a very strange dance.
Please tell me those eyebrows aren’t for real!

Here’s footage of a mobility scooter driver carrying an extra wide load in the shape of a long roll of carpet.
To add to the fun, this version uses the Benny Hill Show theme tune.

Incredible Dancing Dog
Following on from yesterday’s cute Every Home Needs a Harvey video here’s a another from a little while back. It showcases the incredible dancing talents of Carrie, the Chilean pooch.
The music is Merengue, but frankly, we think Carrie could put her hot steps to use in pretty much any form of dance from Salsa to Tango.
Rock on.

Medal of Honor – Linkin Park
We Say:
An Expandable Viral Ad for Medal of Honor / Linkin Park -”The Catalyst”
They Say:
“An all-new Medal of Honor gameplay/live action trailer directed by Linkin Park’s Joe Hahn. The trailer features never-before-seen in-game footage set to the band’s first single ‘The Catalyst’ from their soon to be released album, A Thousand Suns.”
The First Music Video In History
Viral Video for Stella Artois
We say:
Not bad for a valley girl from Abergavenny.
They say:
The first music video in history, featuring Marina & The Diamonds and floating moustaches.
Marina and the Diamonds released her first LP, The Family Jewels (679 Recordings) early in 2010. She comes from a Greek/Welsh background and was born in Abergavenny, and was nominated for the critics’ award at this year’s BRITS.
Le CO2eux Soireé is a four part variety show created to launch Stella Artois’ new lightweight bottle, which contains less glass and therefore produces less CO2 emissions.
A follow-up to last years’ Recyclage de Luxe Show (see notes below), the CO2eux Soireé is also inspired by 1960s television programmes and is aired ‘live’ from inside the new bottle. Broadcast directly from 1963, the show features the ‘first ever music video’ – of Marina and the Diamonds’ hit single I Am Not a Robot – alongside a live set from The Mystery Jets, performing their yet to be released single Dreaming of Another World.
The show has been created by creative agency Mother and is supported with press and outdoor activity as well as an on-pack promotion. All four episodes will be available to view at www.facebook.com/co2euxsoiree
I’m A Cider Drinker
Here’s one of the new style cinema style video virals, this time for Kopparberg Cider. Scroll over the video unit above and click on it to expand the action.
The ad was filmed by Daniel Wolfe at the oh-so-trendy Notting Hill Arts Club, one of our favourite small music venues. It features the kind of hip-indie soundtracks you’re likely to hear at the late night music venue and a crowd of west London trendies grooving on down.
