Be Excellent To Each Other

Sometime ago someone posted a rather amusing video of three teenagers playing "through fire and flames". I wanted to show that to my brother-in-law, and by searching for it, i came across these:

The first one is a rather depressing version of "the final countdown". Not only there's no one in the audience, but the keyboard sound is quite eerie.



In this rendition of "smells like teen spirits" the singer has some problems taking her jacket off, as you can see at 0:18, but that's just the beginning



The 3rd one isn't that bad, but the singer dancing moves are too good to be ignored

That is extraordinary. From the Stylophone doubling as a keyboard through to the lead singer doing his own backing vocals, the entire thing is just genius.

I predict these lads will be The Darkness for 2009.

Seeing as Youtube are getting all cunty about the sound in this, here's the original clip for the Teen Spirit cover.

Everybody check the 3rd video at 2:30 where the teacher goes on to stop the moshing. Teacher leave the kids alone!

have no idea why that's happening though...

Posted this in B&B earlier, but it gets buried under piles on shite in there. Laughed like a drain at this.

That is simply genius...the music is a strange hybrid of King Missile and Lard.

I was greatly disappointed by this thread I thought it was going to be about this sort of thing:

I had similar, betamax-riddled expectations, however in the spirit of things...

Thank you so much. Beautiful.

ARGGGHHH! I've seen that film!

All I remember about it is the chloroform bottle. Best prop ever.

Holy Mary.. Those were absolutely terrible.

How could you listen to them and not crease up laughing?

That Kiss one almost had me on the floor. Then I watched the Iron Maiden one (Iron Maiden shred) and had to use my inhaler and lie down (no joke). I played it to some students today and they didn't even understand what was going on.

Awesome stuff.

There's an awesome MetulLicker one:

I can't make the Nirvana one work.

It's the earnest looks on everyones faces that really make those videos.

Neither could I. If you skip ahead a bit the video starts, but no audio.

*cough choke*

Beast or bust gave another link where it works.

EDIT: no, actually it doesn't anymore

That dunt work here either.

I can't wait to listen to the others when I get home.

YEs, i really can't find an audible version. To compensate, here's a rad cover of Iron Man.

Funny that original Nirvana clip still works for me.
You can have this instead, I actually found the album to this at a bootsale at the weekend.
The real 'Beast or bust' Beatles cover.

Before I played this, I was going to say it's not fair to make fun of school bands, but fecking hell.

BAND TO DRUMMER! COME IN DRUMMER! ARE YOU EVEN PLAYING THE SAME FUCKING SONG AS US?

same here. I also though "nice that these kids like Black Sabbath", but then i saw.....the drummer.

It's a new style. Jazz Metal.

Nothing tops that Kiss vid. Nothing at all.

I've had to watch it at least 3 or 4 times a day now. My favourite bit is the "Jazz Jazz Jazz Jazz guitar for few, Batman Jazz!" bit.

At least he probably didn't play naked dodgeball with other boys.

Trust me, you don't want to lol.

I'd love to play the Kiss one again right now, but it's blocked here.

I....don't understand the Kiss one.

There's nothing to understand. Just bask in its glory.

Oh my good lord....

Oh lordy, there's more of it.

Fair play, the Basket Case one is amazing. "Fwink I'm cwacking up!" "Sometime mind play twicks on me"

And the Teen Spirit one. "HArro! HARRO! HARRO HARRO!"

Its not just pop songs that get covered badly, here is a bizarre English version of the opening theme to
Doraemon.

How it should sound.

If that's what the last one is, that's similarly been killed.

Man, YouTube is really hating on Cobain atm.

I've missed that P.I.S.S. song. Ahhhhhh.

Mewodwamatic?

Ha "I went to a schwink to anawyse my dweams"

Hiwawious.

Look at the picture! All those cute ("terrifying" - DavPaz's Animephobia) little girls ("monsters" - DavPaz's Animephobia) flipping the bird and ("staring blankly ahead with cold, dead eyes" - DavPaz's Animephobia)

Yet again I'm disappointed with this thread and its misleading title.

Here's a proper Crap Cover (video)

Is that seriously a visible pair of nekkid nockers on the back of the case?
