The new music video from OK Go, made in partnership with Chevrolet. OK Go set up over 1000 instruments over two miles of desert outside Los Angeles. A Chevy Sonic was outfitted with retractable pneumatic arms designed to play the instruments, and the band recorded this version of Needing/Getting, singing as they played the instrument array with the car. The video took 4 months of preparation and 4 days of shooting and recording. There are no ringers or stand-ins; Damian took stunt driving lessons. Each piano had the lowest octaves tuned to the same note so that they'd play the right note no matter where they were struck. Many thanks to Chevy for believing in and supporting such an insane and ambitious project, and to Gretsch for providing the guitars and amps.

    can u imagine if this is actually how they recorded each song? like idk how to explain what im trying to say... like what if they don't even write musical notes? like they just line different stuff up bang on it with something else and then go "Did we get it"? and then their like ok thats a song we r half way through our album what are we doing for our next song?

    hitting zebras with water balloons? awesome!

    and on another note it would be interesting if they did a dub step video.

    If you push the clutch down while in reverse, you can change gears while still rolling backwards.
