While My YouTube Gently Weeps
May 30, 2006

Last week I wrote a piece about how many hours I've logged watching 80s commercials at YouTube. Today, in a bit of coincidence, the San Francisco Chronicle did their own piece about drowning in nostalgia.

My favorite was Prince's jam with Tom Petty and George Harrison at a VH-1 Rock and Roll Ceremony. I don't care if you've seen this before, own the video, or hate Prince, if you're at all sensitive, this performance should give you chills. If only because of the red cowboy hat. In unrelated news: Suzer? This one's for you.

Dig Petty's reaction, the stagehand pushing The Artist back up on stage, and the total glee that washes over Prince's face -- it's so honest and unrehearsed.
