Interpretations

by | Mon 12 Mar 2007

I have recently discovered comedy gold on YouTube – *music video interpretations*.

The basic idea is that someone takes a song and makes a video with an interpretation of the lyrics, to great comedy effect. It seems YouTube is teeming with them, and here are some of the good ones I have discovered for some bands I listen to:

* Trivium – see [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNLDLyeepVs) and [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Euv38Pxom9s)
* [Children Of Bodom](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FEexRDj3Ww)
* [Avenged Sevenfold](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2tP3BVtxds)
* [Slipknot](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvHiqqOqu8U)
* [Arch Enemy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nut2MpRycCw)
* [Prostitute Disfigurement](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlL4W-Liibw)

Hilarious. 🙂
