Great idea, great song. Sometimes this one works sometimes it doesn't. B+

Has the definition of mashup changed? That just looked like a montage, albeit a good one.

Wrong. This Is. (new window)

Stevie Wonder v. Beastie Boys v. Cypress Hill
"My Superstitious Brain"

mashup != montage.

Anyone here qualified to marry me to this video?

Although not a mashup, I will say, they don't make movies or movie stars like they used to.

i for realz like that song.. but the vid i saw about a year ago was better it was live and iggy was all passed out on stage but once the intro comes thru he all wakes up and starts rawking the fiznark out. shoulda linked that one. maybe i will.

oh yeah and i killed people on ps2's scarface to this song.

FTFY. And yes that was pretty damn good.

tagjim

oh...my....god...

that was GREAT!!!
unbelievable!!!

[just wish the hornsection was a little louder]

I'm just now starting to get into Iggy a little bit. More and more, I'm appreciating how far ahead of his time he really was/is.

Meh.

Looks like the song was tagged on to some film clips. Whoooppee.

nate the viking

I hereby announce you nate the viking and the video, man and video. You may kiss the video.

tagjim--

josey_cuervo: tagjim--

listen to the whole song. especially the "Special Guests...the Beastie Boys!" part...

Would have been better with "Yakity Sax" but then, what isn't?

Man do I love my some Iggy Pop, but then again I'm a whore for most glam artists.

Oh man, thanks so much for posting those. You just made getting ready for work slightly less miserable.

Iggy pop is great... many of those movies are great. Together? Not so great.

It was like watching come cool film clips while listening to a totally unrelated song. I give the whole thing a C.

That's not a mashup, that's a music video.

A mashup would be iggy pop vs GWAR or something, the same beats in either song 'mashed up' to make a new song.

Smitter fails.

Not a mash up but still and awesome collection of clips.

Wasn't that just an old commercial for TCM?

FTFY.

[half joking.]

I remember reading somewhere that Bowie admitted that Iggy Pop was his "guinea pig" for "The Idiot" and "Lust for Life". Pop wrote the lyrics. Bowie wrote the music / arranged it, etc. In a way, Bowie kind of "used" [right word?] Iggy as a wild template to do very interesting and different stuff that he might not've been able to get away with if he just sang / put out the songs himself. Sure, the "Lust for Life" album is more mainstream and poppy, but "the Idiot" is even more far-out than "low" was, in places. "lust for life" was more 'commercial'/mainstream than Bowie would choose be for at least 4 or 5 years. [1978-1983]

I salute you, that is indeed the best goddamn mashup I ever heard, and I love me some mashups.

This one is pretty good, too, although it has a completely different vibe.

Artists are not "ahead of their time". They are the time; the one they live in and therefore define. The superlative quality of the standard an artist sets has nothing to do with "ahead" in time.

Looks like we got ourselves a reader

Three excelent mashups:

1) Eminem vs Punjabi MC - Lose Mundian Tho Yourself Bach Ke

2) Blondie vs The Doors - Rapture Riders (Extended Clubdub Remix)

3) James Brown vs Prince - Sex Kiss Machine (Dmc Remix)

Easy to obtain olnine, somewhere...

Mashups are the best - introduced them to the Vegas DJ scene back in 2000

Oh come on, the greatest mashup of all time is Girl Talk's Feed The Animals played from start to finish. Highlights include Jay-Z & radiohead, Nirvana & Salt N Pepa, Tag Team and Big Country, Shawty Lo & Elvis Costello just to name a few...

I have this mashup I do where I put googly eyes on some socks, which I put on my hands and move the end of them with my fingers so they look like they have mouths. Then I make up a different voice for each sock and make like they are talking by themselves. It's such a great mashup. Then we all make love. Such cool mashupinations.

Go Home Productions consistently puts out good stuff. At some point, mashups become sort of masterbatory, like the snake eating it's tail, but every now and then they are fun. And GREAT at parties.
I'd also suggest The Avalanches, DJ Danger Mouse's 'The Grey Album', and a band called CCC, which remixed the entire 'Revolver' album with cool stuff.

Gangway Fathead: Oh come on, the greatest mashup of all time is Girl Talk's Feed The Animals played from start to finish. Highlights include Jay-Z & radiohead, Nirvana & Salt N Pepa, Tag Team and Big Country, Shawty Lo & Elvis Costello just to name a few...

Night Ripper, by a hair.

"24 Hours" by The Kleptones, start to finish.

If that's a mashup, I have a great mashup for you subby:

Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" combined with clips of some white dude dancing:

(yes, this is a rickroll)

Technically, it isn't because you told us ahead of time.
