Mercy Me likes to have fun covering popular songs, filming goofy videos, and sharing them on YouTube. Their latest offering is a cover of Justin Bieber’s “Baby.” In Lecrae’s cameo, he refuses to display his abilities for a Bieber tune. Canon (also making a cameo) steps up, delivers the rap lines, and smashes bread all over the Mercy Me guy’s face. It’s all in fun. Watch above.

Squirrel with his head caught in a yogurt cup
I don’t know why, but for some reason I find gags involving squirrels to be hilarious. Maybe it’s a southern thing. In any case, here’s a case in point. Professional golfers Ted Schulz and Kenny Perry recently happened upon a squirrel with his head caught in a yogurt cup. Kenny Perry’s caddie was able to free the squirrel, but the squirrel went after him when he did! Then the squirrel quickly scampered away.

What not to say when your wife is having a baby
Andy Gullahorn makes great music, but he is also a hilarious guy. I just came across a home video that he made while driving his wife (Jill Phillips) to the hospital for the birth of their third child. Get ready for a belly laugh! Continue Reading →
Slam Dunk Clinic (circa 1990)
This is classic. Here’s a kid putting on a slam dunk clinic in his basement circa 1990.
For what it’s worth, I’ve got a nerf hoop in my office at Southern if anyone wants to come over and film a real YouTube sensation.

Ferris Bueller Returns!
Warning: If you are not a child of the 80′s, the video above is likely to make no sense to you at all. If you are a child of the 80′s, this is going to be the best thing that happens to you today. (HT: Josh Philpot)
Tim Tebow’s Fire
Back in the mid-80′s there was a really popular movie called “St. Elmo’s Fire,” and one of the songs from the movie soundtrack reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and received a Grammy nomination. The song was written and performed by John Parr and was titled “Man in Motion.” It’s quintessential 80′s fare, and there’s not a Gen X’er reading this that doesn’t know the song. Continue Reading →
Top 10 YouTubes of 2011
It’s time for my annual posting of the Top 10 YouTube Videos of the Year (see last year’s list here). This ranking is totally unscientific. Only one person was polled to compile this list—yours truly. This year’s crop contains items relating to sports, theology, news, Christianity, and more. Some of the videos are humorous, and others are poignant. If you think I’ve left something out, let me know. I’ll think about adding it to the “Honorable Mention” category. This year’s slate of videos is arranged in no particular order, as number ten is obviously in a class all by itself.
A Flashmob for the Ages
Justin Taylor says this is the best flashmob ever. I think he may be right. Those people in Target don’t know what hit them!
Tim Tebow Auto-tuned: “All he does is win!”
Drink the koolaid friends. This one is definitely going into the Top 10 YouTubes of 2011. (HT: Josh Philpot)
The best laid plans of mice and men…
This is laugh-out-loud hilarious. Tim Challies linked this video in his “A La Carte” column today, and it is definitely one I’ll be including in my annual “Top Ten YouTubes” list later this month. Classic! Continue Reading →
