Not to inundate you with OK Go videos or anything, but here's another video for a different version of the same song performed with the Notre Dame marching band:

OK Go certainly make a lot of memorable videos stuffed full of surprises (like grass people)! They merge goofy and humorous well. Funny, that I'd never even heard of OK Go before yesterday when I happened to see a clip of the treadmill song on a video game and, my interest piqued, decided to google "treadmill song."
Now that I've read more about OK Go, I know that this was their breakthrough song and dance, which is cute:
OK Go - A Million Ways (to be Cruel) (2005)
They've mastered nerd chic. I especially like their fake fight with slow-mo action!
