Line Out - Comments on Perfect List http://lineout.thestranger.com/2008/06/perfect_list I know (you know), not another Entertainment Weekly list, right? But this Michel Gondry cutated list of 25 classic music videos is actually worth checking out (Stereogum collects them all on one handy page here) if for no other reason...

How can you be so amazing and yet look so silly at the same time?

also, gondry likes 'bust a move'? what, no 'can't touch this'?

'60 miles per hour' - ftw.
