WATCH IT: Asif Avidan "One Day / Reckoning Song" (Daniel Locke Franke, dir.)

Although both versions of this video can stand on their own, watching the first "lyric" version certainly makes the aim much clearer: One day you will be old. So stop worrying, start dancing. And, yes, even people in jean shorts can be cool. --> watch "One Day/Reckoning Song" Part 1 and Part 2 (Part 2 is embedded below)

WATCH IT: Bahamas "Lost In The Light" (Scott Cudmore, dir.)

Director Scott Cudmore offers multiple perspectives in this lovely Bahamas performance video, taking his time as he switches focus from singer Afie Jurvanen, a girl group on backup vocals and then a behind-the-scenes POV from a mysterious smoking lady (who looks like a very upset Mad Men ad executive). A "Lost In The Light" motif recurs, as each performer sways out of the way to let light overwhelm the screen, but the overall effect is perfectly mellow. --> watch "Lost In The Light"

WATCH IT: Cartoon Network 20th Birthday (ilovedust, dir.)

Cartoon Network celebrates 20 years of on-air madness with a music video for a song commissioned to Mad Decent and directed by UK design shop ilovedust. It's a complilation of nearly 100 characters, ranging from the well-known Daffy Duck to the should-be-famous Finn The Human. --> watch "Cartoon Network 20th Birthday Music Video"
