Don Diablo - "Hooligans Never Surrender"

This is so appalling in so many ways... starting with the title of the song... "Hooligans Never Surrender"? Seriously? And the video... oh my word... where do we begin? Don Diablo throwing rocks at the riot police while wearing a $329 desinger tee shirt - hmmm... we can't really see that happening in real life, can you? And what's with those mexican wrestler steroid users? They are oppressing the riot police!!! (good job Don Diablo is there to save the day by getting a spider on his shoe).

You will never look at a champagne bottle the same way again... Watch

Music Video
Uffie - "Pop The Glock"

Muse - "Uprising"

Does this sound like the Dr. Who theme tune to you?? and does it remind you of Blondie's "Call Me"??? But who cares who they sound like when they are singing about taking the power back from the blood-sucking corporate elite with their banker bailouts and their manufactured wars and their controlled media... Muse is a shoe-in to vote for Ron Paul in 2012... well if they were allowed to vote they would be.... Watch

Music Video
Major Lazer - "Pon De Floor"
