This is an edit of the final dance number from Dirty Dancing with ‘(I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life’ replaced with The Muppet Show theme song. It works surprisingly well, and the music supervisor who chose to use ‘Time Of My Life’ instead is probably pinching themself right now

This is a video of musician Joe Porter covering several iconic rock and metal songs with percussion instruments, including “Metallica’s ‘Enter Sandman’ on the hammered dulcimer, Guns ‘n’ Roses’ ‘Sweet Child O’ Mine’ on the steel pan, AC/DC’s ‘Thunderstruck’ on the slapophone, Metallica’s ‘Master of Puppets’ on the flairdrum, the
