I like anything like this.
Even Kylie Minogue's Cant get you out of My Head sounded okay when mixed with New Order's Blue Monday

[factor-fiction]

There are loads of these on youtube

Sometimes they highlight the similarities between songs.
Anyway, sorry I'll stop now

I thought that was excellent, Bibbles. Having fun with music; why not?
I guess there'll be plenty who regard it as sacrilege though, sadly, whether Beatles' fans, or fans of The Knack.

I think they're called "mash ups", this is my favourite!

To answer your question Bibblebub, that's one of the worst "mash ups" I've heard. If they're done well, I've no problem with them.

Very good, it's a vast improvement on the original Beatles track which was never one of my favourites anyway.

Here's my tuppence worth:

"one of the worst mash ups I've heard" or "very good" - but which is right? there's only one way to find out... FIGHT!!!

A Mashup artist called Party Ben did the Snow Patrol/Police one - called it Every Car You Chase by The Snow Police. He also did a full album called American Edit (Under the pseudonym Dean Gray - which is actually a Spoonerism) based on American Idiot and Boulevard is just one of the tracks. I also liked the Eric Prydz/Pink Floyd Proper Education track. I have loads on a Memory Card somewhere.

This has to be one of my favourites

it only works if one knows both pieces of music -personally i think that that is the John Williams Star Wars themes polluted with crap

[andy-hughes]

I have a massive collection of mashups - my favourite is Eminem mixed perfectly with the Benny Hill theme.

This great - I shall be adding it to my collection.
