Because music is everywhere (except my apartment building, which is a cacophony), this is a video of musician Publio Delgado remixing the sound of a dripping faucet into several different styles of musical groove. And speaking of grooves– “You’re going to tell us how you got yours back?” God no,
This is a video of a couple cats carefully edited to dance to/act out Michael Jackson’s ‘Smooth Criminal’. I mean this IS the internet after all. Did you forget? Me, I can never forget, I have the memory of a….what’s the animal with the good memory? “Elephant.” I’m pretty sure
This is a video of musician Chloe Alexander performing Radiohead’s ‘Creep’ with the help of her yellow-naped Amazon parrot, Gallagher. I’m not sure if Gallagher ever bothered showing up for rehearsals though, because he seems to be all over the place, almost as if he wishes they’d gone with a

This is a video of Taylor Hawkins’ 16-year old son Shane playing the drums on Foo Fighters’ ‘My Hero’ during a recent tribute concert to his late father in London. He is definitely his father’s son. Even having never seen him before, I could have easily picked him out of
This is a video of the 1000-musician strong Rockin’ 1000 assembled for a concert in Paris and performing Queen & David Bowie’s 1981 banger ‘Under Pressure’. Sure the original was performed by only six musicians, but another 994 can’t hurt, right? Or maybe it takes 1,000 people in order to
