I Love You Rachel Maddow by Marc Black, interpretation by Blake Farber

[ElectraAlan]

I adore her, too. Now the challenge is to write a song about her and pronounce her name correctly. It rhymes with shadow. It can't be that difficult. You've got one rhyme right there.

[marcblackmarc]

@ElectraAlan We know now. It's mad owe. not mad ow. but our love is strong like a punch... pow! It's a big world, lots to do...on we go...Now! (ciao)

[karlosGuz07]

white ppl suck....

[Zeuszgrl]

Marc, sheer excellence,

that is all :-)

[1oErdoben]

BEST NEW THING IN THE WORLD TODAY.

[marcblackmarc]

Thanks!

[blm256]

@marcblackmarc Hey Marc,

Terrific song. I love her too; have a major girl-crush on her. This is Barbara, I live across the walk from Dan & Dorothy. The "Obama 2012" Facebook Page Group posted this, and that is how I saw it. Pretty neat. Right on brother!

[scooticus]

Heartfelt, funny, harmless. Bravo!!

[yosh9376]

Rachel Maddow's definitely got that cute political girl thang goin' on plus...I like this damn song! lol

[peteypabloxyz]

rachel maddow should do the world a favor and jump off a cliff!! lol but seriously

[TotalSranger]

I like the part where Anderson Cooper flits around and waves his bongos... but the guy lip synching and carrying that guitar shaped back pack distracts a little from the All Girl Uncoordinated Dance Macabre and their pasty faced hand held fans. The tune is not really what I feel is good dance music, but hopping around in a pasture is okay, I guess ; )

[LAULGIREL]

Love this-she's the bomb!

[Cogency1]

Finally, someone who has the same affliction as I do...being in love with Rachel Maddow!

[kenetaylor59]

This is very cool and strange. Love the hand-held photo masks. Great little tune too, and as others have noted, VERY catchy!

[marcblackmarc]

@kenetaylor59 thanks!

[neenerpuss]

I Love You Rachel Maddow! Please run for President in 2016!

[marcblackmarc]

@neenerpuss but then who would do her show?

[shivalove6]

Love it!! Fun song (which is now implanted in my brain) and a cute video. Thanks for taking the time to express yourself.

[marcblackmarc]

@shivalove6  my pleasure...thanks!

[shivalove6]

Love it!! Fun song (which is now implanted in my brain) and a cute video. Thanks for taking the time to express yourself.

[marcblackmarc]

@shivalove6 my pleasure. thanks!

[kenjohnsonmusic]

That was the weirdest video I've EVER seen.

[marcblackmarc]

@kenjohnsonmusic weird...but i hope you enjoyed.

[MrGraembo]

Great song, man! Gotta tell you, though. It's Madd-OH. Like, if a Yankee were saying "meadow." Like, that's how she pronounces it. That's how she has before when reading her own last name. Woo, Oh, I like Rachel Madd-OH, too.

[marcblackmarc]

@MrGraembo we know about the rhyme, but hey...it makes a better song. i just wanna say wow!

[topmom100]

This is the greatest!



[marcblackmarc]

@topmom100 glad you enjoyed.

[Gram2jalen]

WTG!!! Excellent song and right on!!!

You haters on the right---maybe she shouldn't be so gentle when she tells you where to go.

[marcblackmarc]

@Gram2jalen gentle is good when it's strong...as she is.

[rosenbar]

Love this! And she certainly is deserving of songs of praise. :)

[marcblackmarc]

@rosenbar thank you.

[Ogidni]

Its a great song and all... BUT SOMEONE GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD!

[marcblackmarc]

@Ogidni we can have it surgically removed, but easiest just to replace it with another.

[DrCamPhD]

we have to get Rachel, *ahem* Dr Maddow to see this!!

[marcblackmarc]

@DrCamPhD she's seen it and i think she likes it (in her shy way)

[MrOppsadoozy]

WIN!  LOL Love Rachel Maddow too!

[tubetrekker30]

What does he say at 2:26? Love the video, and Rachel! What kind of crazy cat is this Uncle Sam dude?

[williamleo4694]

@tubetrekker30

He says... Rachel you're a hit all over the neighborhood at 2:26

[marcblackmarc]

@tubetrekker30 i'm not sure about that uncle sam. he just showed up!

[PlanetTango]

@tubetrekker30 "Rachel you're a hit all over the nation."

[conigrl1]

This video is totally offensive. Take one of the most interesting and intelligent pundits out there and objectify her with your boring fantasy.

[marcblackmarc]

@conigrl1 sorry to have offended. certainly none meant. just playing with our very innocent emotion of loving her work. her courage. if our metaphors bugged you, please forgive.

[Zeuszgrl]

@conigrl1 I hear vaseline works wonders to help loosen sticks stuck up one's butt...

maybe after yours is removed you'll see the humor and admiration in this song you missed first time around !

[drrichardpaul]

Awesomw song. Rachel is one of my all time favs.

[katonahgreen]

Love it! And Rachel too. Hope she watches this!

[lmdw]

I luv Rachel Maddow, too!!

[ADRIAANA1]

America LOVES Rachel Maddow.

[ana1sninja]

Goofy but cute.

[cabbey6]

I love Rachel Maddow too... great song!

[artful820]

I Love You Rachel Maddow

[GrannyTenderstone]

I can't blame you Marc, even if she is gay, who couldn't love her?! She's quite a gal.

[ricardo420show]

She makes me wish I was a girl

[ana1sninja]

@ricardo420show She makes me glad I'm a girl.

[ricardo420show]

She makes me wish I was a girl

[Aldohxc]

Thumbs up for the video maker, Blake Farber!

[Lupitamihita]

My hubby is way in love with Rachael Maddow. Glad to see plenty of other people feel the same way. Hey! I'm not jealous. I love her too.

[kynandog]

Great great song about a cultural revolutionary. This is one excellent video, and SUPERLATIVE direction by Blake Farber. This should become required viewing for every aspiring video producer, director, or editor, showing how much is possible with the mearest of effects. Low budget but a grand slam in creative interpretation of a mature, upbeat, lovely song.

[Jer3Saw]

I love this song, and I love Rachel Maddow. This is my new favorite song. I just posted to fb.

[AnnetteChaffee]

Awesome video! I can imagine Rachel cracking up as she watches it! Great work!

[josells]

Yeah Baby.  Je suis d'accord. And how!

[terip64]

Thank you for this! I just love it!!! I love Rachel, too!!

[jamie1707]

This made my morning! Thank you!

[jesterline]

I love Rachel Maddow too. What a coincidence.

[TheDanny6114]

Not to be all nit-picky but Maddow rhymes with shadow, great song though!

[gingernm]

Awesome!

[imnotdonepacking]

great work - you're a true artist.

[Rockyj2]

Hey if I was gay & she didn't have a partner..but really I love her as she's is ONE smart cookie & think her crooked smile is cute too! Listened to her on Progressive Radio 1090 Seattle long before she made her debate on Keith Olberman!

[ABevs1]

lol brilliant 

[ShaktiLila]

Best song and video on Planet Earth!!!

[maddywash65]

Love that woman...She keeps me sane in this crazy world. Great Job..Thank you.

[MiserableOldFart]

I don't have cabal tv, but from what I've seen in web videos from her show, she is intelligent, accurate, and truthful.

Simply brilliant.

[joanlee1]

Joan from Eagle ID

[amyrigg]

[kjlowryTX]

Rachel knows how to speak truth to power; honesty to deceit; knowledge to idiocy; and freedom to those that would create a theocratic dictatorship!

[goombahdoro]

Priceless and Yes, we love Rachel Maddow and missin' Keith O too.

[eorteza]

This is really cute...I love it!

[Lorddavud]

The lady doth ROCK!

[pavspup]

[TheiJat88]

I live in woodstock, too!

[TheiJat88]

I live in woodstock, too!

[hogiesue]

Love her and love this :D

[kaitykaity]

IAmRoiyaru -- when are you moving out of your Mom's basement and getting a real job? I bet the only six-pack you've ever seen has plastic rings.

[IAmRoiyaru]

Where'd they get these thick-ass white girls?

[janesaysgohome]

@IAmRoiyaru upstate NY ulster county to be exact.

[CanadianQueer]

Hey! I remember you. You made a video about a year ago where you were just strumming your guitar while singing your song. This video was nicely done; I hope Ms. Maddow sees it. :)

[mehdbc]

I love you, Rachael Madough.

[jenidiaz]

i LOVE this!

[candyrider13]

"She gently tells The Right right where to go"-I love it! (But what is the deal with the guy with the toilet paper on his head?)

[SuperJimtendo]

Where'd you get those cool Fred Savage masks the dancers had?

[raindacerjen]

cool vid! Rachel Rocks, she's smart and likes to laugh too.

[doyoureallythinkso]

lol nice

[andersonliterary]

Fantastic!

[alhabbo]

u go get'em rachel!!

[tehnutjobbery]

Yep, Maddow rhymes with window.

Uncle Sam's a bit scary, but nice work, Marc.

[msarraille1]

This is pretty cool.

[MrPashovski]

Rachel Maddow , like Shaddow. Not Mad - DOW , like Mad Cow.

[RestlessRedhead]

Very sweet! I have a "crush" on Rachel, too. My first grownup crush was on Dick Cavett, when I was in high school in the early '70s. I still love him. Smart is always attractive and inspiring.

[tpaquin]

um, Marc, I'm not sure if your love would be reciprocated. Don't take it personally.

[betterpresident09]

@tpaquin Rachel is a lover not a hater. She would love Marc and this ode. I LOVE IT!!!!!!

[Scarlettflame]

Awesome! nice tune too. 

[bobketch]

This. Totally. Rules.

[rhythm7a]

This is fairly twisted and I like it.

[hunterswine]

Very nice sir. Very nice.

[garak99]

Marc has been playing this song in and around NYC for over a Year Finally a Video

[jlsr1000]

Me, too.

[BowedOak1]

I love this. Even if it is meant to be ironic, I still love it.

[BionicBlonde]

Maddow rimes with meadow.

[GoCatsss2011]

Strange but funny...and kinda catchy.

[bitterblue8]

Uh....

[jbrandibas12345]

lol, nice

[asecreter]

Adorable!
