Since the first round of these went so well (unbeknownst to me Girl Talk had had the Tell Me When To Do The Hump idea back in January) and my job allows me all sorts of free time to let my mind wander, and come up with mashups that I will do once finance allows me, or hopefully one of the many mixers reading the site will use on their own and credit me for.
So let’s clear the cache and get the ideas out where they’re supposed to go. Titles are mine but are subject to change. The first two I thought of at work on the 2nd and are kinda obvious, but…f it.
Hollaback Holiday Gwen Stefani’s “Hollaback Girl” over Madonna’s “Holiday”
Since U Been Connected Kelly Clarkson’s “Since U Been Gone” over Elastica’s “Connection”
Girlfriend’s Lament (Don’t You Want To Take Me Out?) the Human League’s “Don’t You Want “over Franz Ferdinand’s “Take Me Out”
It Came From The 80’s! Tiffany’s “I Think We’re Alone Now” over New Kids On The Block’s “The Right Stuff”
Party Like James Hetfield Shop Boyz’ “Party Like A Rock Star” over Metallica’s “Enter Sandman”
Black Problems Jay-Z’s “99 Problems” over AC/DC’s “Back In Black”
I Want Rosa Parks Back Outkast’s “Rosa Parks” over the Jackson 5’s “I Want You Back”
Can’t And Won’t Stop The Boys Of Summer Don Henley’s “The Boys Of Summer” over Young Gunz’ “Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop
You Treat Me & U So Bad? Cassie’s “Me & U” over Club Nouveau’s “Why You Treat Me So Bad?”
Throw Some Bad Boy On That Bitch Rich Boy’s “Throw Some D’s” over Diddy’s “Bad Boy For Life”
Ring Of Grindin’ Johnny Cash’s “Ring Of Fire” over Clipse’s “Grindin’” (inspired by but not a direct rip from Z-Trip’s performance last week)

No way. “I Think We’re Alone Now” combined with “Run To The Hills” by Iron Maiden. That needs to be made yesterday.
Black Problems seems so simple and easy that it’s probably definitely been done before. I’ll look into making it; I’ve needed an excuse to get some Jay-Z ‘pellas.
Wicked idea – this should be a regular column, as I’ve been scratching my bonce all week as to my next track.
There’s too much snobbery and over-possession in the wolrd of mash – if we all worked together, think of what we could achieve?
Hollaback Holiday sounds awesome – let me see if I can’t dig out that instrumental from somewhere….
