Weezer - The Greatest Man That Ever Lived (Variations On A Shaker Hymn)
Metamorphosing famous Shaker hymn ‘Simple Gifts’ into the surf-pop ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’. This a 6 minute epic that has been compared to American Idiot-era Green Day, MCR’s ‘Welcome To The Black Parade’ and even Weird Al Yankovic. All those comparisons are valid and that means people either think it’s the most amazing Weezer track in years or think it is utterly abysmal. I think it’s the former.

Hip-hop’s next big thing, Asher Roth, has joined in on the trend of releasing a freestyle for “A Milli” a few weeks after he put out a great music video criticizing Jay-Z for not signing him.
At the opening of the track Roth claims the only reason he did the track was because people on his MySpace told him he had to. Considering he was forced, it’s not that bad—it has a lot of funny lines (including a line taking a shot at J.J. Redick, and comparing himself to Wayne Gretzky and Alex Ovechkin).

This is worth a look.

My favorite: “John and Mary had never met. They were like two hummingbirds who had also never met.”

I’m totally enamored with this gorgeous remix by The Chimney Climbers that will appear only on the European version of the Bangers & Cash LP. Benny Blanco and Spank Rock are the truth.
