I remember watching this pre-youtube as well, but it was in ebaumsworld.com
It looked very different back in the day.
Another classic song is the llama song. I remember a friend showing that to me in '04.

Joe Cartoon was an old internet staple. The website still exists but everything has been converted to movies, isn't quite the same without the interaction

And homestarrunner was the granddaddy of it all.

I'm not sure if I've seen that one, I'll have to check it out, thanks!

Is it this one? http://weebls-stuff.com/toons/alpaca-animated-music-video-mrweebl/

Or maybe you were referring to the Llamas In Hats series? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBE8C175E9FAAA34A

I was always partial to the Amazing Horse one for some reason. http://weebls-stuff.com/toons/amazing-horse-animated-music-video-mrweebl/

I used to listen to it for hours and a weird quirk of Flash animations was that often the audio track and the video were milliseconds off so over time it would get very out of sync.

Ebaumsworld is where 14- to 17-year-old me spent most of my time in those days. The forum was my introduction to internet message boards. Will always have a spot spot there.
