The Awesome Videos Thread (with Extra Sauce!)

Mayby not awesome per se, but still an interesting concept for an ad.

Jesus, I swear they plucked that commercial out of Li'l Z's brain (he named every car as they appeared). Only difference is he likes the gold Volkswagon, too.

....and now we've watched it 5 times in a row. Thanks, @chris .

In the whitest moment in television, Jeopardy penalizes contestant for saying "Gangster's Paradise" instead of "Gangsta's Paradise."

Not sure if awesome.. but it is very funny.

The last one, with Bergkamp, has memetically mutated into "there is bear cum".

 

[jwhouk]

I... I don't know if this is "awesome" or, well, something else...



(In case you're wondering - it's SLTS in a major chord, instead of a minor...)

They played that on the radio the other day. It turns Nirvana into Green Day.

I keep waiting to get my own copy of Melodyne to do this stuff myself, but then I remember the price.

They also changed the arrangement to sound more punk pop-ish. Here's a major key version that's truer to the original.

I used to follow a youtube channel that did this routinely, Oleg Berg. https://www.youtube.com/user/MajorVsMinor

Unfortunately, they haven't updated since the whole Russia-pretending-not-to-invade thing, as the guy is Ukrainian EDIT Oh look he's updating again. Nice.

He did Teen Spirit, too, including bending the original vocals.



But he also goes the other way. He made "Don't Worry, Be Happy" "Be Worry, Don't Happy."

 

[Dave]

Be worry, don't happy?

 

[GasBandit]

Be worry, don't happy?

Be worry, don't happy.

Takes the Major key original and makes it minor.

 

[Dave]

I know. I get that. But changing the words in the song is just odd.

 

[GasBandit]

FEEEEEL OLLLLLD

 

[PatrThom]

Oh that's right, you have a lot of React to catch up on.

I almost did that one for him, but then I got distracted.

3 professional soccer players vs 100 schoolchildren.

To be fair the schoolchildren would have won easily if they had known how to coordinate their efforts.

Well no shit sherlock.

Watching old people try to play games is torture.

Half of them play so badly, they get removed for inactivity.

It was Overwatch!

Wow. That's embarrassing.

OP of the season?

 

[GasBandit]

Regardless of your feelings on the Last Jedi (or the prequel trilogy), and if you can forgive the ultra-trite usage of War Pigs in the first half, this video turns out pretty awesome.
