That first video is adorable. Looking forward to my twitter feed filling up with Undulating Speaker Cat gifs.

Cat Tree Subwoofer would have to be what, 75 gold fish to purchase in Neko Atsume?

Well.

OK.

No.

De Jeugd Van Tegenwoordig has some great songs. This is not one of them. Try the one which made them famous all those years ago:

Chill beat, cool lyrics.

Then there's Shenkie; cool video and the song grows on you:

Or an electronic masterpiece, De formule (the formula):

Bonus: Dom Lomp And Famous, a song which loops perfectly and just tickles the fuck out of me as a perfect party number:

Sorry, nerdfish, this song is not in any way an earworm. It has cats in the clip and that's all that might entice people. There is so much better.

The track may not be great but the video, and more importantly, the custom cat furniture, more than makes up for it. Surprised this post didn't get much love here on the blue... have we finally reached peak cat on the internets?

@MacD - never said the track was an earworm, only posting for cats.

The one that made them famous all those years ago, which was recorded almost literally around the corner from where I lived at the time (A'dam-Noord represent).

And to be honest, this is a perfectly cromulent funk song, hilarious because it's dedicated to what might just be the least sexy Dutch name you can think of.
