You've listened, but have you watched?

Oddly, just before clicking on some of these links I was eating a leftover conference room bagel (those who know don't need to be told about those). It has blueberries, but also the baker used cornmeal on the bottoms. It's not really gross, but the tastes don't really go together. Sorry, what was I supposed to look at?

"Leftover conference room bagel" is a fair approximation of the "watched" link.

"Cornmeal on the bottoms" is even better. Anyway, to answer the question: Yes. Several years ago.

Madonna plus whoever still equals 50% Madonna. The glass is half empty.

I like to watch.

"Half empty?" The watched link is half Madonna, half "My Humps." You might want to put warnings on that is what I'm saying.

Hrm. That last link had quite a few more videos when I posted, same with the 'but' link. I'm not sure what happened.

Is there a Letterman/Leno version that we could care even less about?

(and for those who skip the links and skip the tags, these are mashup videos. For a definition of what a mashup is and a bunch of non-visual mashups, go to the "You've" link.)

I would've flagged this as noise but that's not an option any more, so I flagged it as display error.

ericb: "Meta." Geez, sorry. I'd go back and retro-fit it with some mention of mashups other than the first link which strongly implies the post is about mashups and the links that directly state the post is about mashups, but I can't.

ericb: Meta From the aforementioned MeTa link: "One-link, one-or-two-word MeFi posts bugging you?" Yeah, they are. Good thing this post has six words and six links. What point are you trying to make?

I think the mashup video genre is a lot harder to do than just music, but This grease/wise guys mashup videois one of the better ones i've seen.

Okay, this one is definitely techincally interesting, and probably better than the originals. Well, except for "No Woman, No Cry". Was anyone able to find where the 4th song in that list was used?
