A show choir wet dream

That's the best description I've been able to come up with for the Feist 1234 video.
I've been hearing this song everywhere all summer in commercials and on the radio, and I haven't grown annoyed by it yet. I turned on MTV the other morning and I saw this video for the first time (yep, they play videos before 8am...So does VH1. Who knew?) and my uncontrollable laughter woke G up in the other room.
Just from the exuberance of the dancers, this looks like the funnest video shoot ever. They're all having a blast! The stupid grin on Leslie's face around 1:45 as she's crowd surfing makes me love her even more. She's my new favorite rock star...

I especially dig the sounds of the empty warehouse, the way the hand claps, finger snaps, and dancers singing and yelling reverberates. This didn't stand out so much when I watched it on MTV, maybe my laptop speakers add some special lo-fi-ness to it, but it makes me love it even more.

I had to watch it twice to make sure, but they did that whole thing in one shot on one camera. Neat-o.

I think the warehouse echo is a remix (with echo). I've only caught it once or twice and I've seen the video oodles of times. I love the song.
