Nintendo A Capella

Posted by Zonk on from the everything-good-comes-from-wisconsin dept.

Andrew writes "If you're a fan of the NES and `80s video games like me then this is too cool for words: A video of University of Wisconsin a capella ensemble Redefined performing Nintendo a capella. The file is a little large (about 47 megs) but definately worth the download."

    You guys must be joking. I just listened to both, and there is no comparison: "Redefined"'s rendition is far superior. The arrangement is on target, musical, and quite complex. Moreover, they harmonize extremely well. Buttonmashers are decent, but they certainly don't harmonize very well.

    If you want a good example of a tune which is funny yet well harmonized, search around for Blink 182's "Shit Piss Fuck Cunt Cocksucker motherfucker tits fart turd 'n twat". It's about 15 seconds long, funny and musical!

    I couldn't help but think of how bad that was, and how embarassed I'd be to have it on the internet. Paradoxically, at the same time, it sounds EXACTLY like something my friends and I would have done and I got a real kick out of it. Then I send the link to about 5 people.

    Thanks for sharing.
