Real QOTDers come here first.

What's your favorite Carol King song?

Hush, you know you have one. Mine is "Chicken Soup with Rice," and if anyone else knows that song, I want to make babies with you.

In my years DJing college radio, I must have thrown Ok Go onto a playlist or two. But unlike other selections like the Fiery Furnaces' "Blueberry Boat" and Palomar's "Albacore," this Ok Go song didn't catch my ear enough to borrow the CD from the station and burn it.

So thanks, Jason Kottke, for linking to the Ok Go treadmill video.

And thanks, YouTube, for also having the Ok Go "Do What You Want" video with the bullet-time-in-reverse camerawork.

Finally, thanks for the Ok Go backyard dance video. I'm in love with these guys.

So now, pending catching their stuff at Amoeba Music, I've downloaded two albums and I'm now rocking out in my room. There is dancing.

When my own summer jams mix, most of which never hit the radio, sounds overplayed.
