High School Lip Dub Wars

I found this lip dub techno war between Seattle's Shorecrest and Shorewood High Schools to be fascinating and ingenious. The first clip is the original challenge by Shorecrest to its rival Shorewood. Once Shorecrest "served" Shorewood the challenge with a lip dub of Outkast's "Hey Ya," as the author of the MSNBC article linked above wrote: "Shorewood responded by popping open a can of 'Hall & Oates' whoop-ass; its own lip dub set to the '70s hit 'You Make My Dreams Come True.'"

Watch them both. For my money, Shorewood won this lip dub face off. But more importantly, the mastery of technology and the creativity of these kids gives me hope that not all is lost in our youth. Watch them again and see what you think:
