Video made from results of Google query for "biggest regret"


Chris Blake says:

For my latest music video, I compiled some of the weirdest, funniest and most touching real-life regrets I found on the Web. Then I set them to my new song 'Someone Else' about unrequited love.

This video truly is a wonderful thing!

Nice work. A few years back I posted some other fill-in-the-blank "Googlephrases" here:

http://goodexperience.com/2004/03/introducing-googlephrasing.php

For example, "is the best movie i've ever seen in my life" and "is the worst movie i've ever seen in my life" came back with some interesting responses.

Absolutely wonderful. Many thanks.

That was delightful. Thanks!

great concept, pretty low quality execution though. Would love to see that by a visual artist

Fucking great. I loved it.

Of course it was low quality execution...that was the point of the concept in itself. I thought it was brilliant...and I AM a visual artist! lol...

That was really great. Thank you for sharing it.

I think this is so rad! Good times, good times.

Definitely a wonderful thing. Wow.

Is it just me, or does every youtube video embedded on boing boing always say 'this video is temporarily unavailable'...? I have no problems accessing youtube or watching the videos if I go directly to youtube.com...??

Worked for me. Twice.

no probs here

And strangely, once I've loaded the same video on youtube.com it works here...

I get the unavailable video error occasionally when I try to play from the main page. Clicking through to the post's page seems to fix it.
