If you haven't seen this already, I predict you're going to see this everywhere. It's a music video for the song "Toe Jam" by The BPA, a pseudonym for Fat Boy Slim, featuring vocals from David Byrne and Dizzee Rascal. If the treadmill choreography of OK Go's "Here It Goes Again" could turn that clip into a viral sensation, "Toe Jam's" use of strategically placed censor bars over unclad bodies — check out the "Pong" game should break records. It's sort of like Busby Berkeley meets Boogie Nights. Not technically work safe — or is it? Catchy beat and fun vocals (and a surprising f-bomb) from Byrne, too:
