This song is special to me because it was the theme song of one of the first people I met in Republic, Washington, when I moved there a few years ago. I've since moved out of the area - to Wyoming - but I still remember our friend Kat and how she sang this song all the time...
Original
Such a catchy tune, but I hadn't seen the video until now. The choice of a parking garage as the setting seems a bit odd to me, plus wrestling (and losing) so some phantom we cannot see. I'm guessing this is meant to be a physical manifestation of the suffering he is going through...
Vocally, this is the best cover I could find today. Their video is interesting, including the addition of interesting planets and other space objects flying past in the background. It's a good composition all together.
The video isn't super exciting, though I do like watching people play. Vocally, he's right up there. I really like that he adds his own little interlude towards the end. (Some language...) I think it really works in this piece. (I found that while the preview wasn't working on the post, I could still click through.)
Okay, this one really impressed me. Not only is he excellent vocally, but he's using the plastic pipes (I presume it has a musical term) as an accompaniment. He even does this video in the parking garage (as in the original video)! It's definitely worth a listen.
I'm giving it my WTF award because it's probably the one that makes the least sense (even as someone who's played Minecraft!) I liked it though because the vocals are decent, the lyrics work and the effort going into it must have been pretty huge. It's had fewer than 8k views and definitely deserves a bit more than that!
Decent vocals, good lyrics. Whether you've played Battlefront or not, I think most Star Wars fans can relate to this song. It's worth a listen if you're familiar with these fandoms.
Today's Finale!!!
(Language and content warning!) I found myself cracking up from the beginning of this one. He answers some very important questions the original video raised - such as "why is the guy getting all beat up in empty parking garage?!" The ending is, well, uh, memorable.
That's it for today! I hope you had as much fun as I did!
As usual, I'm simply sharing YouTube videos on a theme, all rights remain with the original.
