Playlist: Crazy

Today’s playlist theme is crazy.

Craziness can be confusing, but I think we all need a little bit of it every now and then.

First, something from the best band in the universe, U2. This song is actually one of the staples on my running playlist. I think it has something to do with the cartoons running in this video.

So, when was the last time you thought to yourself, I’ll Go Crazy If I Don’t Go Crazy Tonight.

Next, a song from the most handsome man in the world. This person not only proposed inside a decked out igloo in the Canadian rocky mountains via helicopter, but he's also married to Heidi Klum—and they have 4 kids now. So, who’s got game?

Heidi probably wouldn’t have gone for Seal if she wasn’t a bit crazy. And Seal wouldn’t have probably gotten the eye of Heidi if he wasn’t a bit crazy himself. Looks like he took a page out of his own body of work. We’re never gonna survive unless we get a little crazy.

This is Seal with Crazy.

What’s the most awesome way to announce to the world that you have an 18-year old daughter? Feature her half-naked in your music video. Add to that the Clueless 90’s heartthrob Alicia Silverstone and you've got gold.

Featuring Liv Tyler's grand reveal to the world, Aerosmith's Crazy.

At this point, I want to introduce something that this isn’t a video and isn’t even remotely connected to music, but I just want to share. Do you have your Joe with cream and sugar? Well, Meet Joe Black. It’s hard to fall in love with the angel of death, but that’s the kind of stuff that leads to true love apparently. You think Claire Forlani would have her doubts right? She did. But these are her dying father's words of wisdom:

Love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? Fall head over heels. I say find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find that person? Forget your head and listen to your heart. I'm not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived.

Yes, I think I’ve lost it. But I think you’re crazy, just like me. Who do you think you are?

And after all of these videos and—err—quotes, just remember that you always have to draw the line somewhere. We all get a little crazy sometimes and it's good, but let's not go overboard and become sociopaths. Don't go blowing up buildings—or minds for that matter.

I don't want to have an anti-climactic, disclaimer infused ending to this playlist.

Sometimes, we're on the verge of going out of our minds, but we muster up enough sanity to accompany the crazy. Hopefully, it's for a worthwhile cause.

Let's end this list with a classic, U2's With Or Without You
