Video I Love Rick 'n' Roll

Posted by Mark Lore on Tue, Jul 21, 2009 at 1:02 PM

German producer DJ Morgoth has made quite a name for himself for his mash-ups of artists, including The Prodigy's "Firestarter" and Judas Priest's "You've Got Another Thing Coming." He also finally answered my burning question: What would happen if Nirvana and Rick Astley made it?

Now Thriftshop XL has taken Morgoth's Nirvana/Astley mash-up "Never Gonna Give Your Teen Spirit Up" and put it to moving pictures. It's well done. But I must warn you: Images of Astley dancing awkwardly to the tune of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" might be disturbing to some viewers.

I do love me some mash-ups, but you have to admit there's a glut of them. And many of them, like this one, just aren't very good aside from shtick value. Ah, well.
