PORK AND BEANS
Every once in a while, an amazing music video comes around that breathes new life into an ever-dwindling industry. These videos inspire creativity, innovation, and just plain fun. More importantly, they directly reflect on the cultural sentiment of their time, whether it be Michael Jackson's "Thriller," Blink 182's "What's My Age Again?", or OK GO's "Here it Goes Again". Weezer's latest masterpiece "Pork and Beans" is pure genius. A combination of all of our favorite YouTube memes, this video highlights the absurdity that consumes so much of our everyday lives. I could not love it more. It's pure camp. Its a viral video vision. And its great.
