Hilarious “Key of Awesome” Parodies

I don’t usually blog on the weekends unless I’ve found something awesome. That or I’m procrastinating about work-related stuff. This is a bit of both.

The Key of Awesome (different from aussies, The Axis of Awesome) is a weekly show that parodies famous musicians and celebrities. Under the guidance of actor/singer/writer Mark Douglas the results are utterly hilarious, be it California girls who won’t go anywhere near your broke-ass weiner or Ke$ha waking up in the morning looking greener than Shrek. Check out the Glitter Puke parody below.

And have a look at some of their other spoofs after the jump.

Paul Dateh’s Super Cool Violin Mashup

We were amazed by Pomplamoose and their great cover of Michael Jackson’s Beat It. There are links to more of their track in the comments of that post. If you liked that, then you may love Asian musician Paul Dateh and his awesome violin skills.

Dateh has taken a couple of songs from the recent iTunes Top 40 list, mashed them together, and played them back on his trusty violin. Check it out below.

The tracks covered in this mashup were:

  • Lady Gaga – Telephone
  • Ke$ha – Blah Blah Blah
  • Rihanna – Rude Boy
  • Usher – OMG

Back in 2007, Dateh played a selection of hip hop songs whilst DJ inka one spun the turntables in the background. See that after the jump.
