Hidey ho, readers, and welcome back to Framed, America's greatest blog. It is here--and only here!--that you'll read captions to still pictures pulled from today's greatest music videos that are so funny that several of you will likely die from excessive laughter in just a few moments.

Ahem.

Speaking of funny, when we heard that Creed had reformed, we thanked whatever God we pray to and queued up their new video. Oh, we weren't disappointed, and you won't be, either. Frankly, this is something we can treasure collectively as a species. Heck, let's see what Rolling Stone had to say about the event:

"Five years after their highly acrimonious split, Creed are reforming for a new album and an American tour, which kick(ed) off August 6th in Pittsburgh and runs through October 14th. 'I wouldn't call it a reunion,' says singer Scott Stapp. 'It's a renewing and a rebirth. I missed my boys and wanted to create music with them again. We're all thrilled to have a second chance to make a first

If you're a fan of Collective Soul, this should be an exciting week. When we heard their new album, Rabbit, is slated for an August 25th release, we went straight over to Y! Music's own New This Week to see what they had to say!

Um. 

Well, New This Week said this: "Even when you thought (Third Eye Blind) had shuffled off downcast, following...Collective Soul down into the heart-wrenching Valley Of Playing County Fairs..." 

The Valley Of Playing County Fairs? Why, we oughta! We'll take this up at next week's all-expenses-paid, seven-days-and-six-nights Y! Music Blogger Late Summer Symposium, which--once again!--is at the Four Seasons luxury resort on Lana'i.

That's next week, though! This week, we're talkin' 'bout Collective Soul! And what a collective they are! Hailing from a small town in Georgia, these exciting quasi alt rockers have had great success since their 1993 debut, scoring four platinum albums and landing six #1 hits on Billboard's rock chart. And, this week, we're happy

Hello, readers from all the points of the compass, and welcome to Framed, America's Friendliest Blog. It is here and only here that you'll get photo captions to music videos that are so riotous, so timely and so outrageous that you'll swear you have died and gone to caption-readin' heaven!

Ahem.

This week's Framed features Belinda Carlisle, formerly of the Go-Go's, the "first all-woman band that both wrote their own songs and played their own instruments to top the Billboard album charts," according to Wikipedia. After the Go-Go's split up because of insert your own reason, Belinda embarked on a solo career and, for awhile there, it was rockin'. She had three Top Three singles in a row, and five straight in the Top 20. And it is here that her life intersects the world of Framed.

This week's video, "Summer Rain," was the first of her solo singles to not chart in the Top 20. To be honest, it was a big flop, hitting only #30 in the U.S., and she hasn't had a single on the Billboard charts

This is a true story, readers. We'd just checked into our hotel in Auburn, Massachusetts, last week when we had to use the facilities. As we did, we looked down at the toilet bowl.

And the toilet bowl said Toto.

Yes, it said Toto. We look at toilet bowl names because Framed once interviewed Green Day and Bill Armstrong told us that "Armatage Shanks"--a song from their greatest album, Insomniac--referred to the name of a company that made British loos.

And this toilet bowl said Toto. If you don't believe us check this out.

Well, talk about synchronicity! We'd been planning on doing a video by Toto, the band, for several weeks now, but had lazily opted for more modern artists.  Now, stunned and chastened by the Toilet Message, we decided on the spot that we were absolutely going with Toto this week.

For those of you who don't know much about Toto (the band), they were an L.A. combo--studio musicians, mostly--who made a bit of a splash in the '80s with hits like "Rosanna" and our
