Danny Boy: Johnny Cash and Jimmie Rodgers

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.

Lemmy’s Half-cut Ace of Spades

Viral ad for Kronenbourg

We Say:
Great to see Lemmy still looking menacing and yet lovable in equal measure. He’s a good sport and ‘slow Ace of Spades’ still sounds awesome.

Hover over video unit to launch big screen player…

They Say:
On October 4th 2010, we took Lemmy and his band Motorhead to a French bar.

Here, inspired by the laid back atmosphere and a slow, cold KRONENBOURG 1664, they played their legendary manic song, The Ace of Spades, at half the normal speed.

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 Choose Life

Fed up of the cold days and freezing nights? Well here’s something to lift your spirits – a music video from London singer songwriter Ilana Lorraine (co-written with Kevin Mark Trail from The Streets), shot on a balmy day on Primrose Hill. Roll on summer.

Ilana’s otherwise known to BighappyVideo and our sister site LondonNet as the instigator of a Michael Jackson Flashmob in Trafalgar Square last year.

United Breaks Guitars

As regular air travellers will know, flying just ain’t what it used to be.

Yes, fares have become much cheaper over the years, but alongside dropping prices has come plummeting customer service.

Baggage is right up there with the problems now faced by intrepid travellers. Be it lost baggage, excess baggage charges or baggage security checks, all is not well in the world of checked in luggage.

The video above is a case in point. Canadian singer Dave Carroll gets his own back on United Airlines after their unacceptable response to his claim for compensation for the damage to his precious Taylor guitar.

The video has gone viral and has now been viewed by several million people on YouTube.

Nice one Dave.
