I still hear most of these songs weekly

the ridley method

14 years on. This is still still as good as the first time I watched it !

I never noticed they had Tim Minchin's canvas bags lmao I wonder if he performed right before them!

Let's not forget that Twist and Shout and La Bamba are the same.

I miss when videos weren’t chasing algorithms and were just people having fun… I still love this video 14 years later

The amount of chords a song has is not the important part. Some songs dont have any chords.

MUSIC..

Wow. I just am seeing this in 2024.

Whenever k-pop fandoms feud and accuse groups of "plagiarism" I think of this mash-up

i would love to hear some prime musicians remake this

I can only assume they've done the same intro many times before because "...and I'm benny" sent me and the crown didn't even chuckle.

How about the 'Glass half full' approach. Think of it like cooking. If a chef could take 4 basic food items, add their own flavors and other ingredients and make delicious dishes - one might say thats awesome 👌 Similarly others can take the same 4 basic ingredients and cook something disgusting. It takes talent to make so much out of so little. I find 'mainstream country music to practically be cookie cutter; Rap as well Yet artists with the good voice, lyrics, emotion, and je ne sais quoi turn it into something special.

So funny thank you

Shows us just how absurd copyright is...and has been.

They peeled back the music industry and showed us the basecode. 2024, still true.

4 four ?

85 million views and I might be 5 million of them

When he just played the chords it was Let It Be

Jack Black looks very Young

Wan. Wo

Sad they broke up tho i love these guys

I'm a musician and even a bit of a songwriter. I've always found this progression and the even more overdone I,IV,V to be what you write when you only want to write lyrics. Most blues, country, rock and pop music is just this same old crap over and over again in a 4/4 or 6/8 time signature. Boring.

Damn completely forgot about pictures of you

woowwww

Wonderful fun. Well done.

I come back and watch this every few months for over a decade now. Nothing else scratches this exact itch.

Which four cords?

From the future . ❤ It will be played.

This is so brilliant!!!

So what are the chords?

Anyone else figure out any they didn’t mention? Quite a few yet.

1, 5, 6, 4, Beato.

Jordan is fucking hot.

Holy shit. He sounds like meatloaf.

What will it take for them to do a new version with new singles from the last 15 years?

I feel mgmt get a pass considering they were made to make fun of pop music so of course they would use the 4 chords

When they started playing two Offspring songs at the same time, I lost it.

The lead singer is now a woman.

beyond awesome

Anyone have a list of all these songs? I wanna make this a playlist!

The truth is, almost every single pop song is the same song, same chord progression and the same time signature. You're essentially listening to the equivalent of Nursery Rhymes, Twinkle Twinkle little star, The Alphabet song, Mary had a Little Lamb. Etc. The only big genres that are an exception are Classical, Prog, Jazz and certain types of Metal. What I'm claiming is that if you don't listen to those genre's you've got the same taste in music than when you were learning to not shit your pants."

That's all it takes to end your career; Being honest.

Is Let It Be the first one?

Serious question here... What tshirt is the shortest guy wearing?? (sorry don't know name! feel free to inform me!!!!!) I love it!

Any time I’m sad, I put this on ❤

this is just amazing

Get life

You made Ed Sheeran very rich

Holymoly youtube was great back then!
