Video From Radiohead's Santa Barbara Webcast

Although the overlap between Barack Obama's DNC address and Radiohead's webcast of their final North American show this tour wasn't total and complete, from your Santa Barbara liveblogging, it seems more than a few of you devoted your night to Obama's Denver address. I think you guys chose wisely, both for the sake of Observing Significant Moments In American History, and for the sake of knowing that the Internet captures every move Radiohead makes in perpetuity anyway. What I saw of the concert was a nice reminder of my nights with them this summer, and a necessary chaser to hearing Chris Matthews yell at me about how essential Barack's speech was. We've rounded up what we could of the high-quality YouTubes out there from the Santa Barbara set, along with a setlist, for your pleasure.

Van Halen's Not Running With The GOP

Like so many bands before them, Van Halen do not approve of their music being used on the presidential campaign trail (McCain used "Right Now" as an entrance theme in Ohio this morning). "Permission was not sought or granted nor would it have been given," says VH management. "They're not political, they're just rock and roll." Also Sarah Palin's favorite meal is moose stew.

Lykke Li Visits Late Night

Artist To Watch Lykke Li gave Americans the first opportunity to watch her on late night TV last night. The buzz Swede visited Studio 6A, where she performed icy dance pop tune "Breaking It Up" with an invisible choir. Looks like Lykke won over Conan with her megaphone and patented wacky moves. Of course you may have been otherwise engaged, so here's what you missed.

New Crystal Castles Video - "Crimewave (Crystal Castles VS. Health)"

Most remix type things should never be downloaded, let alone get a video. But Crystal Castles' slinky, Nintendo bleepy makeover of HEALTH's "Crimewave" -- a standout track from the exceedingly good HEALTH // DISCO remix album -- well, that can get whatever it wants. The clip has a higher Alice Glass visibility factor than did "Courtship Dating" (she's singing through a mesh net) and features a down on his luck zombie, mixed in with footage of Crystal Castles supremely strobed live show.

New Streets Video - "Everything Is Borrowed"

In this clip for the opening/title track of the new Streets album, Mike Skinner is at home, not roaching a spliff and watching telly, but waking the wife and making breakfast for his son. Their domestic bliss is cut short when six dudes show up to repossess the house. It's "an artistic piece of credit crunch drama" according to The Beats' video description. The maudlin refrain "I came to this world with nothing, and I'll leave with nothing but love" takes on a more literal meaning in this context. The British rapper's no stranger to sentimental songs, of course, but it's an interesting choice for first single and perhaps hints at LP4's more mature themes.

Paul Westerberg Offers More Oddly Priced Downloadable Music

We told you Paul Westerberg's 44-minute 49:00 was available at for 49 cents -- was because looks like you can't buy it anymore. If you don't mind inflation, though, there's the two-song 3oclockreep EP going for .99 (one's a 22-minute collage that includes Tom Waits babbling!) and choose between 99¢ and :05 for "5:05."

New David Grubbs - "An Optimist Declines (Edit)"

David Grubbs supposedly describes his new album An Optimist Notes The Dusk as "a step into the void," which doesn't sound overly optimistic. His first solo record since 2004's poppier A Guess At The Riddle does sound good and enjoyable fractured, though. It consists of five longer songs (hence the "edit" in the above headline) and an 11-minute instrumental. Fans of his work in Gastr del Sol or the nighttime blues of Loren Connors should appreciate the spare, nay skeletal, knottiness. Listen:

Rufus Wainwright Pulls His Opera From The Met Because They Refuse To Pardon His French

The piano man had begun work on his first ever opera, but he's composing it in French, and his would-be commissioners at the Met and Lincoln Center prefer their new operas in English. That's why he's looking to find it a new home -- that, and because the Met can't even fit it in 'til 2014. Quoth Rufus: "I'm an impatient pop star."

Two Swedish Girls Cover Fleet Foxes In The Woods

Amateur YouTube musicians can be sad, annoying, or both. Teenage sisters Klara and Johanna Söderberg, harmonizing on "Tiger Mountain Peasant Song" in a magical forest, are neither. In fact, they will brighten your day. ">Good job, Internet!

New High Places - "From Stardust To Sentience"

It's hard to believe, but High Places still haven't released their first proper album -- 03/07 - 09/07 was a comp, remember. But don't expect a letdown: Their forthcoming self-titled debut on Thrill Jockey's great, easily expanding on and complicating their past work, creating a more cohesive whole than you received via 03/07 - 09/07, etc. A little while ago we offered a listen to the recorded version of "Vision's the First..." (which we first heard at our SXSW party) fronting fellow album track "Namer" on an Upset The Rhythm 7". Now you can take a listen to "From Stardust To Sentience," the album's quiet finale. It sounds like an exit, a pretty ambient lullaby that finds Mary Pearson singing about space, the effects of gravity, and the desert where "your thoughts are as clear as the stars."

New Kaiser Chiefs - "Never Miss A Beat"

Mark Ronson is very serious about his love for Kaiser Chiefs. He memorialized this by commissioning Lily Allen to sing a cover of KC's "Oh My God" for his Versions record. Now he's one-upped himself by taking a production credit on the band's forthcoming, third album. "Never Miss A Beat" has been popping up on Kaiser Chiefs live sets since last year, sounding like a fairly standard guitar-rocking chant-along Kaiser Chiefs song, so here's Ronson's opportunity to bring some apparent shifts to the mix. (Warning, though: He didn't really bring any shifts to the mix.)

New Lou Reed (Feat. Antony Hegarty) - "Caroline Says, Pt. II" (Live At St. Anne's Warehouse)

We've mentioned Julian Schnabel's documentary Lou Reed's Berlin along with Lou Reed's diss of Lester Bangs. The film's out this fall, the diss largely forgotten. Anyhow, Lou Reed's Berlin includes a December 2006 performance of the 1973 album at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn. Matador's releasing the accompanying soundtrack under the descriptive title Berlin: Live At St. Ann's Warehouse. The first MP3 from the 14-track collection's "Caroline Says, Pt. II," the later rewriting of the Velvet Underground's "Stephanie Says." Speaking of which, VU fans should also remember "Candy Says," the one about Warhol superstar transsexual Candy Darling, who shows up in "Walk On The Wild Side" and appeared on the cover of Antony & The Johnson's I Am A Bird Now via a photo taken by the late (and, yeah, great) Peter Hujar. All that to say: Antony helps Lou on the final refrains here and it makes incredibly good sense to have him connected to one of the "says" songs.

Slash On Chinese Democracy Leaker

Saul Hudson's still got feelings for Axl. About the recently arrested CD leak-blogger, Slash tells the LA Times: "I hope he rots in jail. It's going to affect the sales of the record, and it's not fair. The Internet is what it is, and you have to deal with it accordingly, but I think if someone goes and steals something, it's theft."

The Kooks Cover MGMT

We were in Chicago for Fork Fest the weekend of MGMT's Pool Party free show at McCarren in Williamsburg, and my phone that Sunday was attacked by nonstop texts about how the Pool had never been more packed, the VIP was full of B-list celebs, and the line to get in was around the block all day. Wait, what? When did they get so big? They're huge. They have models breakdown their equipment after shows and drink from goblets made of gold and success. Maybe it's the major label promo money? Or, maybe it's just that they have some undeniable singles. That's not as much fun as conspiracy theories, but if we're chalking it up to the tracks, "Kids" makes the list. Meanwhile, the Kooks are a band that exists. File this under unnecessary and patently average covers. But we're suckers for covers, so here you have it. It's acoustic, the warbly synth riff comes forgettably picked on a guitar, but to its credit, the harmonies sound nice on the chorus. You may have a listen at idents.tv.

Happy 50th Michael Jackson!

The Daily Mail's posted an article titled "As he turns 50, is this what Michael Jackson should really look like?" The speculation of what he may or may not look like if he hadn't undergone the knife and hardcore depression is just that, speculation, but the reported facts about his everyday life in Las Vegas, where he now resides, are a bummer to say the least:

[H]e spends his time wandering around Las Vegas with a gaggle of bodyguards and his three precocious children, Prince Michael I (11), Paris (ten) and Prince Michael II (six).

He is almost always in a wheelchair, wearing a bizarre outfit [Note: pajama and tux jacket outfit to the right], and so frail he appears to be at death's door.

Meanwhile, his record-breaking career seems a thing of the past. From all accounts, he is not motivated to do anything. He has no real plans for the future and is deeply in debt.

Happy 50th, indeed. The article's interesting, written by J Randy Taraborrelli, who's written three best sellers about him and claims to have "reported more on Jackson in the past 30 years than anyone else," and its pins a pretty compelling story: "Alone in his madness, he became gradually weirder, and no one seemed to care." Something more tangible: He had to default on Neverland ranch. Anyway, how about that picture, which we're told were rendered by "an expert" and depicts what Jackson would've looked like if he'd let his face age naturally:

BEST OF THE BWE: After The Blogs Of Summer Are Gone…

It's been a great last hurrah of the summer, hasn't it? We hope you all have a great weekend - and be absolutely sure to take a break from your Labor Day plans to check back on Monday, because we will be handing over the site to a VERY SPECIAL, AND INCREDIBLY FAMOUS, GUEST BLOGGER!!! Do not miss this! Until then, relive some of the laughs we had this week. We're growing up so fast, aren't we?

• Dan slipped into a virtual black hole and discovered that there is a Little Man Dancing At The Center Of The Internet.
• I was shocked and horrified to learn that some people think that, when a friend suffers a miscarriage, it is appropriate to send the Worst E-Card Ever.
• Alex pissed off some Miley Cyrus fans when he pointed out an extremely unfortunate product design with the package of Hannah Montana Gummi Innuendos.
• Dan made me feel extremely uncomfortable looking up the 30 Porniest American Apparel Ads. It's okay though, I left him a "surprise" in his desk for later (poo).
• Speaking of poo, I made a video that illustrates a common feature found in Kung Fu movies. Everyone looks like they have to take a giant dump. Watch it: Kung Poo.
• Alex did some hard-hitting political analysis of the latest Diddeo to hit the internet: Diddy had to fly commercial and has something to say about it. I wonder what the presidential candidates are going to do about Diddy's oil crisis?

12 Steps For David Duchovny To Cure His Sex Addiction

As we mentioned this morning, David Duchovny has checked himself in to a rehab facility for his sex addiction. Now, I'm no expert in either addiction or sex, and I certainly don't have the credentials of someone as experienced as, saaaaaay, Dr. Phil, but I think I've come up with the perfect 12 step plan for Duchovny to follow. If he spends exactly 1 week in a room alone with EACH of the following 12 people, in the EXACT order I have laid out here for him, he will be permanently cured. Warning: NSFYB (Not safe for your boner): just reading this post may lower your sex drive.


STEP 1Bernann McKinney, The Dog Cloner / Misery-Style Man Napper STEP 2Madonna. There will be lots of sex, yes, but it will not be the kind Duchovny's hoping for. STEP 3The Liver Fluke Monster from The X Files. I hear this guy really likes salad. STEP 4Rosie O'Donnell. She willl teach him how to write poems about his feelings. STEP 5They cancel each other out. STEP 6Everytime Duchovny thinks a sexual thought, Spagett will jump out and ruin his boner. STEP 7Part of the recovery process is finding ways to express your emotions - why not try songwriting with Pogues lead singer Shane McGowan? STEP 8The landlady from Kingpin. Does it smell like tuna in here? STEP 9Bobo and Lil' Debbull from Nothing But Trouble STEP 10Pizza The Hut. STEP 11Tyra Banks. STEP 12FREE FLESH-COLORED MOUSTACHE RIDES!!!! It will be a long 12 weeks, but isn't getting your family back worth it, David Duchovny?

John McCain Launches “Historical Candidacy Lite”

DENVER -- By picking Gov. Sarah Palin from Alaska to be his vice president, John McCain now boasts the only barrier-breaking presidential campaign option with all the same "hope and change stuff" taste that's high in still feeling good about yourself, but with 0 black guys ending up in the white house. McCain's announcement of his shrewd decision to select a relatively inexperienced and previously unknown woman to share his presidential ticket - which would have been a landmark move were he not running against a charismatic black man whose own historical campaign for the presidency has been steadily building momentum following his narrow victory over a female politician whose achievements were actually remarkable - came only hours after Obama captured the hearts and minds of a nation with his deeply inspiring remarks last night in Denver, but McCain's people assure us this coincidence of timing was in no way intended to dilute the impact of Obama's dramatic and historic speech. So far, McCain's announcement was been met with predictable point-missing. "Wait, so no matter what happens, there's either gonna be a black guy or a woman in the white house? That's awesome!" said some voter who is easily manipulated by cynical politicking and feeble media-sensationalizing. "I mean, I'm all for women and black people and stuff, but maybe we should start slow, like with the Vice Presidency, you know?", added some white guy.

Do Your Part To Rid The World Of Heidi & Spencer

AOL's PopEater, one of the biggest celebrity-related sites on the Internet, is running a poll asking readers whether or not they should ban all Heidi and Spencer-related coverage from their sites, which strikes me as a uniquely democratic opportunity for all of us to play a small part in ridding the world of these terrible, terrible people. God knows we've tried to dispense with them around here, but they're just too damn easy to make fun of. Anyway, make your voices heard - then hold AOL to their promise!

Joel McHale Hearts Spencer Pratt

I must confess my undying love for Joel McHale and The Soup in general. I mean, for the love of God, he brought Spaghetti Cat into the spotlight for all to see. I also must confess my undying disgust for Heidi Montag. I actually spend minutes of my day thinking about her, wondering what the hell is going on behind her eyes. It's obvious that Spencer has convinced her that they are one step ahead of us all, and that holding up two melons in front of her breasts in a supermarket for a photo op would be really edgy. Having said all that, it is with IMMENSE pleasure that I present to you this video of Joel McHale and his version of the Overdosin' video:

Sparkle puppy is my favorite part. (via dListed)

ICYMI: Finally, A Comprehensive Guide To Dick Moves

Our friends at Videogum found this funny sketch PSA with a premise is so sublimely simple that you can't help but grin the whole time you watch it. Basically, a couple guys - with the help of a giant foam penis man - clearly illustrate a wide variety of behaviors that could accurately be classified as "dick moves". Take a look, because you just might learn something.

happy 50th birthday michael jackson!

good morning everyone! today is a major milestone for the former king of pop michael jackson - he turns fifty-years old today! of course i'm a fan of his past work (which still holds up today) but these days mr. jackson is looking more and more freaky by the day and at this point i definitely don't see him making any sort of musical comeback anytime soon - people love him for what he did in the past (just watch one of my favorite videos of his below smooth criminal from 1988) but now he's literally like a ghost...just a thin & scary shell of his former self (pictured below at the 2006 world music awards in london) it's actually quite sad when you really think about it but he really has no one else to blame but himself - after the child molestation scandal in the nineties - his image never quite recovered from that whole shady situation plus all his oddball & eccentric behavior didn't help at all - i'm curious to see what happens to him over the next few years - i seriously hope he's able to find some sense of peace! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo

burn after reading

good evening! thank heavens it's thursday evening already - i just finished watching barack obama's historical & amazing acceptance speech (given on the 45th anniversary of martin luther king jr.'s inspiring 'i have a dream' speech) without getting too much into politics (a topic i barely write about here on popbytes because it always gets everyone all fired up) the main thing is we do need a change...from the high gas prices and a faltering economy to a war that has gone on far too long (not to mention our crappy global image) it's totally time to get rid of bush politics (our country feels broken and i hope & pray with all my american might that barack obama can help to fix the many issues at hand) we seriously do not need four more years of the same old bullshit & crap carried on by john mccain (along with his tacky & style impaired wife cindy - she's a total train wreck)

McCain Making History

It’s official.

John McCain has chosen Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to be his Vice Presidential running-mate.

So this means that whether Obama becomes President or John McCain: History will be broken. Holy shit, this year is breaking records. Unemployment rates are at it’s high, House Pricing is at its low, Michael Phelps and the Olympics…now Politics.

2008: Historical.

Solange thinks she looks cool

Solange is annoyin’ my eyes with her bullshit clothing style and bullshit smile.

Who the eff put this outfit together? Is she trying to be different from Beyonce? If so, she’s doing an amazing job.  She’s even seperated herself from all other humans! Congratulations, you think you’re different Solange.

You think your voice is incredibly unique so this must obviously give you the authority to dress like a effin 5 year old…wait no, I don’t want to offend any five-yr-olds. You dress like a cheap ghetto queen.  Maybe it’s because you are one. Dont lie, you know the only thing that’s holding your career up is your association with Jay-Z, and Beyonce, bitch!

Jodie Marsh? Who the hell…

Do people really flippin’ look like this?

Don’t get me wrong, I love these hoes because I get to make fun of them. So this is Jodie Marsh.  I didn’t care for her ever but seriously…what a horrid little piece of work.  If prostitutes were clowns, I think this is what they would look like.

I think her eyebrows were painted with the oil dripping from her eyelashes. And that hair….somewhere in the world, a little girl has found her Barbie Dolls bald. The hair of those dolls are now on Jodie Marsh’s scalp. Absolutely disgusting.

Eventually, Britney Spears will look like this in the year 2020.

Barrack Obama: His Moving Speech

Did YOU see Obama’s acceptance speech last night? I did.

I thought it was inspiring and moving. For anyone who missed it…what were you thinking?

Obama made history, and you missed it. If you think that politics is unimportant, you’re a fool and shouldn’t be living in this country. If you’re a citizen, you should be following these campaigns closely because you’re going to vote. Don’t be ignorant and think your vote won’t count. Get out there, educate yourself on the issues and vote for who YOU think would make a good president.

Sheesh! Well back to Obama- his speech was powerful and I thought his attacks on McCain were superb. We can only wait for the Republican Convention next week to see what McCain will say.

Oh and there are rumors that when introducing McCain’s biography, they have no pictures or footage of him- because camera’s still hadn’t been invented yet! Ha ha!

The Dumb Bitch Tries to Model

When you google shit, this picture of Ali Lohan should be coming up.

That girl looks so damn ugly.  I didn’t even recognize her for a couple of seconds, the fuglyness was messing with my memory. She can’t sing, act, dance, talk…she’s only famous because her sister Lindsay was awesome back in the day.

Here is a fun quote: “The reality show that I am doing with my famiily is a great way to show that we are actually a normal family and not some freaks the tabloids make us out to be.”

Hm, I think your family resembles goblins. Greedy ass mofos who are all ugly as f***. And your reality show is shit. It just confirms how awful you Lohans are. But the real issue is:  whose the dumb bitch that put Ali on the cover?

Fire that f***er.
