This is a video of a vacuum cleaner providing some pretty convincing vocals for the ‘Woo-hoo!’ part at the beginning of Blur’s ‘Song 2’. While it certainly does sound a lot like Damon Albarn in the song, it does miss the clear distinction between the ‘Woo’ and ‘hoo’ and is
This is a video of musician Michael Tan performing one of Bach’s crab canons with a replicant of himself. A crab canon is “an arrangement of two musical lines that are complementary and backward,” similar to a palindrome. Wo, Nemo toss a lasso to me now! The video features Michael
This is a video of Norwegian musician Ramblin’ Rogers (I didn’t know Norwegians rambled at all) playing a country cover of ‘Mad About Mad About Me’ (aka ‘The Cantina Song’), made intergalactically famous by Figrin D’an and the Modal Nodes in the original Star Wars movie. He doesn’t really change

This is a video of the Rockin’ 1000 performing Blur’s ‘Song 2’ in Paris. Do they do it justice? I don’t know, I feel like having ALL those instruments and voices performing simultaneously kind of washed the song out and left it without its original zest. Also, everybody looks really
