Famous for 4.3 seconds

4.3 seconds is the average length of a shot on MTV. So, when Junior Senior offer you the chance to "star" in their new video, you don't need to worry about using up your 15 minutes of fame. In fact, you should think of it as a downpayment.

Junior Senior, by the way, are the Danish group whose "D-D-D-Don't Stop the Beat" record was momentarily popular a couple of years ago. It was actually very good in a lighthearted, frothy pop way.

They're coming back later this year with a new single, "Can I Get Get Get (To Get To Know You Better Baby)" and they want the video to feature you. Yes, you, monkeyboy.

Here's what they want:

You (and/or your friend, or whatever - keep your imagination open!) performing the song, we would like you to do it in some location where you live that is somehow remarkable and emblematic of your town or country (for instance in Paris: the Eiffel Tower, Montmartre etc, in New York: Central Park, in the subway etc - but if you live in a small-town in the middle of nowhere maybe outside the local grocery store is the best place, you get the idea). And as you might know, a little theme of our album is yo-yo's, so we would be happy if you would play the yo-yo at one point, but it's not a must.

Got that? Now go over to their myspace site to download the single, and pretty soon you'll be famous. Famous, I tells ya.
