FaceTime is the star in The Blue Stones music video

by Steven Sande Mar 28th 2011 at 3:30PM

And now for something completely different: a music video featuring FaceTime on a pair of iPhone 4s.

Canadian duo The Blue Stones created their video for the song "I'm A Stereo" using the iPhone 4s, FaceTime and strategically-placed duct tape. The latter was used to cover up the name info on the phones, but there's no hiding the fact that the band members are guitarist/vocalist Tarek Jafar and drummer/backup vocalist Justin Tessier.

It's a pretty catchy song and video, and it shows once again just how embedded Apple technology is in our popular culture. Enjoy the video on the next page, and remember when these guys become The Next Big Thing that you saw 'em here on TUAW.

Thanks to everybody who sent this in!

Why not just use the rear camera instead of the tape?

FYI - gaff tape, not duct tape... duct tape would leave a sticky residue that would never come off your iPhone, gaff tape, not so much. :)

Great tonality, voice quality, and superb instrumentation. This piece is for the grammys.

I thought the guitar work was great, but the song was not.

Also they need to add a girl singer so that people don't have to listen to that guy's voice. Ouch!
