"Children seem naturally drawn to poetry - it's some combination of the rhyme, rhythm, and the words themselves." ~Jack Prelutsky
This is Gotye's Somebody That I Used to Know. It's an all right song, if you like to feel like you're in a high school auditorium's xylophone jam band session with the creepy gym teacher crooning without clothes on in the video and the sultry lunch lady singing back up. I'm putting good stuff after the jump, so only jump if you're feeling like getting your ears sexed up. Otherwise, settle for this simple tune:
Creepy, strange, and eerie. It'd be much better if someone maybe sped up the tempo...
Granted: the video isn't as "art-house" as the first but this is a hot mash. Almost as hot of a mash as thewick is a hot mess.
This next one is a better version than the original but it's a fledgling attempt at a "true" mashup, one that's fully integrated. But hey, Florence + The Machine = damn fine. This one has the best video, by far, second best audio:
And last, and most absolutely not least is my favorite by far. Ignore the bieber hair cut on the fella (I'm assuming) crooning, but enjoy the perfection of an original work of art through combination and collaboration, kind of like this website...
Give your ears a break, it may have been the first time in a while they've "made love" instead of just jumping into the sexy times. Read one of those stories ticking by on the right, seriously, over there ---> and up a bit ^ or just visit www.javiernelson.com
