Broken Social Scene for breakfast

Since the first time I heard them I have been totally hooked on Broken Social Scene. I can't even put into words how great everything they do is (except for the boring "landscape" songs, but pretend I didn't just say that). There's something about having too many band members in a band which just makes it really awesome.

WELL, I just found a bunch of live Broken Social Scene tracks from a KCRW session at Surviving the Golden Age. I'm kind of very stoked and just happen to be listening to it right now. If you're not already a fan, don't bother, but if you are, I wouldn't miss this. Why? Because nothing they do can be bad. I'm convinced.

And to celebrate, I thought I'd post their TOP 5 Most Awesome Music Videos.

5:
A little less Garden State, a little more Fall Out Boy. But hey, I dig it. But mainly because of the line "Can't we just make it instrumental?"

4:
Why? Because a football player says "Let me tackle you." And because it's super gay and I'm super down.

I'm not really into totally romantic stuff, but this music video is still kind of amazing. It captures, in two and a half minutes, the feeling of a first kiss or a new love. The blue color of the ocean paired with the fluctuating time of the ocean and those incredible violins is almost too much.

Why is this video awesome? Whats his name and Leslie Feist are, first of all, soooo cool when they dance together! (Where do they get that sort of energy?!) But I've already proven that. Also, the scenes in the car make me really want to take a cold, gloomy road trip. Maybe not with a zebra, but definately with and oh-so-indie cassette tape and a super-cool ,hip hop boom box. Plus, this song is so raw and crazy and real! (please excuse the terrible adjectives)

Duh. You knew it'd be on here.
