	Oh, now you've made me *remember.*  There's a very cheesy (deliberately 
so) music vidoe by a band called "The Darkness" from about 2003/4, 
titled (IIRC) "I Believe In A Thing Called Love".  Early in it, the lead 
singer hops out of a bathtub and walks up to this... scultpture-ish 
thing, that looks like a Warner Brothers cactus carpeted in shaggy felt, 
which immediately wraps its several arm/branches around him and begins 
drying him off.
	(okay, I *assume* it's drying him off -- I don't want to consider the 
alternatives).

	Then there's a later scenes where the band's spaceship is being 
attacked by a giant Space Squid and they have to fight it off with 
lighting-throwing guitars (talk about electric riffs!)....
