I first warmed up to Ryan Gosling's band Dead Man's Bones around Halloween time, and for obvious reasons: the album is a collection of tunes devoted to creepy creatures like zombies. The band's new video for "Pa Pa Power" just hints at some dark elements, but overall it's a sweet, 13-minute short film of sorts featuring Ryan Gosling and his band performing the song at an old folk's home. It's a bit long, but still the perfect pick-me-up for the Friday doldrums — don't miss Gosling dancing with an older lady around the 10-minute mark.
Ryan Gosling is gearing up for a new action movie alongside Carey Mulligan, but in his downtime between acting jobs music is still clearly a passion. He and his Dead Man's Bones bandmate Zach Shields just released a video for "Pa Pa Power," off their self-titled debut album. In the 13-minute-long clip, Ryan, Zach, and their children's choir perform at an old folk's home. Ryan plays the piano and later dances with some of the residents, but overall there's not too much screen time for the hot actor. Check the sweet story out below and tell us what you think — aww, I love it, or do you want more Gosling?

Ryan Gosling carried his own equipment into The Opera House in Toronto yesterday before his Dead Man's Bones show last night. They kicked off their tour in NYC last week and we got a taste of what their unique live show looks like. Ryan managed to successfully make the transition from actor to musician pretty seamlessly so far, even picking up some celebrity fans of his own. He and his bandmate have also been posting some cute videos while on the road and we'll have more on their act after we take a field trip to check out the band next week.

Earlier this week, I gave the Dead Man's Bones debut album a listen. You may not recognize the band name, but you probably recognize the frontman: it's actor Ryan Gosling. I'm a big Gosling fan, but I wasn't expecting his music to have any substance, or for me to actually like it. Nothing against him, it's just that actors crossing over into music usually fall into a fitting cliche — epic failure.
Every once in a while, though, someone talented proves they're truly multi-talented and makes some enjoyable music. Last year, I fell for She & Him, Zooey Deschanel's project with M. Ward, and I loved Phantom Planet: The Jason Schwartzman years.
There's a longer list of tragic actor/musician crossovers, but I want to focus on the diamonds in the rough: What actors have made albums that you like?
It's Tuesday, which means that not only is your Netflix queue getting a shot in the arm, so is your iPod: I've checked out today's new music releases and have some advice for you on what you should download today.
Hipster Halloween Party: I'm pretty shocked by how much I'm enjoying the self-titled debut album from Dead Man's Bones, AKA the band that Ryan Gosling is in. The "goth-folk" concept sounds too campy to work; Gosling and his bandmate Zach Shields have compiled an entire album of creepy-themed tracks, finding inspiration in zombies and werewolves. It sounds ridiculous, but their stroke of genius is adding the Silverlake Conservatory of Music Children's Choir. As backup singers, the kids' voices are sweet and catchy, especially on Flowers Grow Out of My Grave. My other favorites are the charm-filled, retro-sounding My Body's a Zombie For You and Pa Pa Power, where Gosling's '50s-toned voice plays off the backing of the young voices.
Spill it: I was eagerly awaiting Built to Spill's latest album, There Is No Enemy, and I'm not disappointed; so far I like it more than their last effort from three years ago, You in Reverse. Enemy is more in the upbeat-yet-deep vein of 1999's Keep it Like a Secret (maybe my favorite BTS album). Lose yourself in Hindsight and Aisle 13, but if you're craving a lilting, classic BTS jam, cue up Things Fall Apart.
