Editor's note

Ok Go and the art of the viral video

A Chicago band known for clever pop songs and wildly inventive music videos.

For the full picture, listen to 'Here It Goes Again' and watch what they built around it. 'Before The Earth Was Round' is a good reminder of the songs that started it all.

They turned the music video into an event, not just a promo clip. The treadmill dance for 'Here It Goes Again' became a cultural moment, and songs like 'Before The Earth Was Round' show they could write a solid hook underneath all the spectacle. Their work made people pay attention to how a song could be presented.

They formed in Chicago in 1998 and put out their debut 'Oh No' in 2002. The 2005 video for 'A Million Ways' shifted things, leading to more albums and increasingly elaborate video projects like the Rube Goldberg machine for 'WTF?' in 2009.

Background notes

Archive material and source history

Ok Go formed in Chicago in 1998 with Damien Kulash on vocals and guitar, Tim Nordwind on bass, Andy Ross on guitar, and Dan Konopka on drums. Their debut album 'Oh No' came out in 2002, but it was a treadmill dance video for 'A Million Ways' in 2005 that really got people talking. That video won awards and brought them wider attention.

They kept making albums like 'Of the Blue Colour of the Sky' in 2006 and 'Hungry Ghosts' in 2014. Songs like 'The Writing's On The Wall' and 'February' show their mix of pop hooks and experimental touches. Their music videos became a big part of what people knew them for, often involving complicated choreography or unusual setups.

One video for 'Here It Goes Again' in 2006 used treadmills again and sparked some debate about how much computer help was involved. Another for 'WTF?' in 2009 featured a Rube Goldberg machine. They've done videos in zero gravity and with elaborate props, which kept them in the conversation even when their music wasn't on the charts.
