With his yearly fusion of pop tracks from the year just passed, DJ Earworm once again produces something greater than the sum of its parts.
Each year this guy creates an indefectible compilation mashup that’s actually more listenable than most of the individual songs that comprise it.
Each year he astounds–only to surpass his accomplishment the following year. DJ Earworm is the best at what he does, and he’s just getting better.

In 1989, artists from Pink Floyd, Queen, Rush, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Yes, Iron Maiden and others joined forces to raise funds for people affected by the Armenian earthquake. Kerrang called it “the greatest array of hard rock talent every assembled”.
Organized by Jon Dee, the remake featured David Gilmour, Brian May, Tony Iommi, Ritchie Blackmore, Alex Lifeson and Chris Squire on guitars. On vocals it had Ian Gillan, Bruce Dickinson, Paul Rogers and Bryan Adams. Keith Emerson and Geoff Downes played the keyboards and Roger Taylor played the drums.

From the artist’s YouTube channel:
Warner Music Group has pulled down my video of “Winter Wonderland” citing copyright infringement. Apparently I’m the reason they’re not making money. I wonder if they’ll pull down all the videos of people singing “Happy Birthday”, another song they own. Here’s my parody of “Winter Wonderland”, which, because it’s clearly a parody, does not constitute copyright infringement. Enjoy!
“Warner Wonderland”
When I sing
You can’t listen
Without Warner’s Permission
I’m singing this song
But they think it’s wrong
Living in a Warner Wonderland
Gone away
Is the freedom
To sing songs
When we need ’em
They’re so afraid
That they won’t get paid
Living in a Warner wonderland
In an office there’s a guy who’s watching
Scouring the web for videos
Of anyone who might be ripe for squashing
By singing songs that everybody knows
Later on
They’ll conspire
To put my butt
in the fire
Won’t let me play
Unless they get pay
Living in a Warner Wonderland
In an office there’s a guy who’s counting
And noticing that Warner’s running short
Adding up all the debt that’s mounting
And looking for someone to take to court
Later on
They’ll conspire
To put your butt
In the fryer
Looking to sue
They might come for you
Living in a Warner Wonderland

Adele: “She’s taking her time”
Another contestant: “Try saying that to her face”
