An idea: Play this audio for someone without showing them video. After they've heard the audio, play the video for them.
This is awesomesauce.

I actually woke up with it in my head this morning. "This one's Jake, that one's Dinah, there's big Ned in the recliner." (In my defense, my local radio station played 99 Luft Balloons yesterday morning & it's been floating around there since then. Apparently my subconscious defaults to Doctor Demento instead of German.)

There is also the History Teachers' Beowulf, which I found charming but caused a Medievalist of my acquaintance (who hates fun) to complain about the singer's pronunciation of Old English.

Today is the day that I find out Andrew Huang and Eugene Yang are not the same person. Oy.

Thank you. I've been waiting for someone to do this and now it's done. I'm kind of at loose ends now, not sure what to do.

It makes me happy to be alive knowing that someone is out there creating this kind of thing. That was phenomenal.

This is good. 99 Red Balloons, or luft-whatever, is an awesome song, and I'm not just saying that because I was born in 1970.

Pretty much have the whole thing memorized, Have sung those lyrics at Karaoke much to the confusion/dismay of the audience.

This is the god tier version of the kind of stupid stuff we used to do in high school with like, a casio SK-1.
It's the kind of idea that seems brilliant when you're stoned, but you lose interest 1/3rd of the way into completing. I'm actually fairly impressed.
I think i got halfway in to covering an entire song with meows once... And now meow the jewels is real too.
