I don't really care for those "pieces / parts" videos.  The Doors have made some
of these.  It's usually a studio version song with live shots & other video footage.  
Now, I didn't see the show you're talking about above (I'm still resisting getting 
basic cable) but the ones I *have* seen awkwardly try to synch up vocal video 
footage with the vocals on whatever song they're using, & it ends up looking goofy.
