OK Go's new music video "Needing/Getting" rocks my socks off

(CBS) - From the first moment we saw this band running on treadmills and their music kicked in, we have loved them: check out OK Go's new music video for their song "Needing/Getting". It will be sure to rock your socks off all over again.

Seriously amazing stuff! The band writes about their latest work:

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.

If you'd like to check out a behind-the-scenes on how this video was made, you can click here to go to OK Go's website and watch. And just for fun, I'm going to include their treadmill-running hit "Here It Goes Again" below so you can all watch, listen and reminisce.
