Tiesto — Kaleidoscope

Oh, Tiesto, you sweet Dutch man. You have a lot of famous friends and we get that you want to show it off a bit.

Remember boomboxes on shoulders? Maybe Tiesto does, too, because the man in his clip for Kaleidoscope's "I Will Be Here" hooks a gigantic speaker up to his tape deck and soon becomes a human boombox, making water fly out of glasses and causing havoc at ATMs in Japan. His shirt's a little nutty, too. But what happens if he runs out of...
