Hilarious rewrite of "Yesterday"

Hard core Beatles fans...don't watch.

For everyone else...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsJHqstPuNo

That's funny....

Anyway
Why should songs all be the same?
As laid down on acetate?
Try old songs, like
Anyway

Owen,

makes no sense.. in the sense of that's a US thing.. in the UK it's bacon and eggs .. ham is what you put in a sandwich and your more likely to have bacon with scrambled eggs.. I've heard it about hhmm 4 times over the years besides the wiki article.

*rings up macca for the definitive answer* hehe

here's what they refer to here as a mashup

BUT people have been doing em for years... almost 20 years. have sampler.. no worries

if people put an acapella vocal on a record / cd.. then it was prime for picking.. till they clamped down on sampling.

my fav one was u2's "a sort of home coming" .. it was bono's acapella + a prodigy style grove behind it.. I think U2 would have liked it, but back in them days you could stay under the radar without getting chased for sample clearence by pressing a limited amount of EP's.

although dangermouse (from gnarls barclay) got in some serious **** with apple corps regarding sampling the Beatles .. he took mainly the white album.. mashed it up ... and called it the grey album.

take 2 well known tracks.. mash it up... and here's what you get

a lot of this mashup stuff , a fair few people doing it were from the same part of London that I grew up in.. the bonus was I got to learn music I'd probably never have bothered to listen to (the original versions)

3 minutes in might sound familiar

although normally these days it's a case of getting a well known old song and putting a 4 to the floor beat behind it (808 / 909 kit) zzzz

Not quite as funny as the "Leprosy" version.
