A post-school art history brush up

Hold Your Horses! : 70 Million
I'm going to be honest, here, this song is really just okay. It's fun and poppy, but it deserves major extra credit for it's incredible music video. What is sometimes pretty jenky and sometimes seriously successful in this video always adds up to one thing: a hilarious live action walk through art history in 3 minutes. This video recreates such classics as: Botticelli’s Birth of Venus, Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam, Caravaggio’s Salome with the Head of John the Baptist, Gericault’s Raft of the Medusa, David’s Death of Marat, Munch’s The Scream and even Van Gogh’s Sunflowers. Give yourself points if you recognize them, give yourself extra points if you can name them!

By the way, the band is made up of 8 people. They are from Paris, and the only ways to buy their EP are at a show or via email. Love.
