"Fuzzy & Orange" - Todd McHatton

Artist: Marvy Monstone's Mysterious Fun Time Dream Band (aka Todd McHatton)

Song: "Fuzzy & Orange"

Album: Todd McHatton Presents Marvy Monstone's Mysterious Fun Time Dream Band

Description: I think I like this video because the production values are adequate, not spiffy -- its "let's try this after-effect!" attitude matches the revved up, synthesized song.  Also, I love Finch's collar and necktie.

"Alphabet of Nations" - They Might Be Giants

Artist: They Might Be Giants

Song: "Alphabet of Nations" (extended version)

Album: No! (10th Anniversary Deluxe Reissue)

Description: I think I slightly prefer the original video on the Here Come the ABCs disk.  But this has its own in-your-face charm.  Plus, beyond the new countries in the bridge, there are not one but two West Xylophone jokes.  I'm always down for a good West Xylophone joke.

"Favorite Names" - Key Wilde & Mr. Clarke

"More Moles" - Caspar Babypants

Artist: Caspar Babypants

Song: "More Moles"

Album: Hot Dog!

Description: Another beautifully minimalist video -- this time for the call-and-response song feature Visqueen's Rachel Flotard -- from Chris Ballew and his daughter Josie.  Here's my (free) tip for revenue generation -- sell those individual sketches for, like, $5 apiece.  I'll take the happy sun.
