Misappropriated Music: Watchu Say

Misappropriated Music: Battlefield

16 Feb

A special for Valentine’s Day: If only there was some way to properly describe the hardships that come with interpersonal relationships, the give and take, the potential for pain that comes with opening up your heart to another person….a totally original sentiment about what love feels like….oh well.

Misappropriated Music: Grease Gets Dirty

3 Nov

I’ve wanted to do this mash-up ever since I first heard this song by The Teenagers. They suck, they suck very badly.

I know this sounds weird, and it is, but there is a line of albums called RockABye Babe, in which songs from Tool,  Radiohead, and more are arranged for xylophones and toy instruments.

So does the inclusion of bell instruments make this video less creepy? My money’s on no, but let’s ask the Nightmare Juice Clown to be sure.
