How many video's have they done??

(we don't get many music program's on TV down here)

they have three videos out

I believe i can fly
Danny's song
Summertime

Oh and they do that a lot with some other songs like the intro to "Save The Best for Last" is from the sex pistols "Pretty Vacant"

And the intro to "you've got a friend" is similar to the ramones "Blitzkrieg Bop"
