     I got Todd Rundgren in his prime flashbacks when I watched that the first time, and I'm twenty years too young for that.

   I love the array of music videos that you post..always so compelling to watch and so inspiring....but yes i must agree the first three videos are pretty friggen off the wall crazy.
