Friday Video – Beastie Boys three-pack

We wanted to use their new single “Make Some Noise” in this slot, but the only version of the song on YouTube is sped up in order to avoid prosecution by the Web Sheriff, and it just sounds wonky. So we’re going with these instead. First up: “Body Movin,” which seems like a spoof of ’60s spy movies but then Mike D is wearing a Beethoven wig. The remix of the song here is arguably the best thing Fatboy Slim has ever done.

Next, we have “Ch-Ch-Check It Out,” performed live on “Late Night with David Letterman.” Shot with a fish-eye lens on the streets of New York City, the band performs the track while walking the streets and into the back door of Letterman’s studio and hits the stage in the second chorus. Sweeeeet.

And how about this for last-minute timing: the official video for “Make Some Noise” just dropped. Man, Elijah Wood does an uncanny Ad Rock.

Friday Video – Green Day, “Peacemaker”

…performed on the drums by a 6-year-old boy.

Playing drums is much harder than it looks. Playing Green Day songs is even harder than playing most other songs, because Tre Cool is tre fast and tre good. So how awesome is it to see a 6-year-old boy named Kyle tear up the 21st Century Breakdown track “Peacemaker” – left-handed on a righty set, no less – like it ain’t no big thing? We need to get him in a band with that Japanese guitar prodigy. They’d rule the world.

Friday Video – Mazes, “Most Days”

Man, is this a sight for sore eyes and ears. This clip from London garage poppers Mazes will have Gen Xers pogoing in their seats, and the clip, which is an animated 8mm-style clip of some kids skateboarding and getting into trouble, is vintage “120 Minutes” material. So tonight we’re gonna party like it’s 1991.

Stream this record: Diego Garcia, “Laura”

Let’s get straight to the point: Diego Garcia’s solo debut Laura is one of the most gorgeous albums you’ll hear this year. In some parallel world, where songs like “Walk Away Renee” still rule the earth, this album will be king.

Pity this is not that world, and so Garcia’s string-kissed acoustic ballads face an uphill battle vying for attention in an overcrowded market. But let us just say this: if someone attempts to assemble a “Garden State”-type soundtrack in the next couple of years, you better believe that “You Were Never There” will be on it.

Laura hits iTunes April 5 and shelves April 12, but NPR is streaming the entire record now. Check it out. You’ll be glad you did.
