From Mike Davidson of ESPN. Man I hope this isn't a dupe.

It's neat, but I found myself laughing at the adsurdity of it. The "type drawing a picture" part is really out there. What's depicted has a connection to the song that you're listening to, but why is it made of letters? It has a lot of replay value just for that.

Well, it's not just letters but the lyrics... at least as long as I can follow.

Fuck me. Can't we just have one URL for a link? Administrator, please delete me.

(Mayor: it's the lyrics to the song. See Mike's ideas for how it was done.)

I hadn't seen it...and I'm glad I caught it this time.

not all of them were the lyrics... the Led Zepplin song was just W's...

The Biggie one definitely consists of the lyrics... the Zep one only uses W for obvious reasons. I want to see more... I wonder if he takes requests (and I'm sure he obtains the necessary copyright clearances before creating these...)
