AIlvis has left the building!

I'm pretty sure the Honky Tonk Creep was in Slither.

I still can't get Bodies (Kids Version) out of my head.

And the song he made to scare his child but he had to take down, Baby Shark & Slipknot.

I use his channel and Neil Cicierega's Mouth albums to annoy my wife.

My wife quite likes Elvis and she is horrified by this, much to my amusement.

There I Ruined It is a terrific name for a channel.
The lip-syncing is great.
So far I liked the North Korean one best, but Straight Outta Compton is terrific too.

Same guy, different alias, even more genius: The Anti-Hero That I Get.

I am reminded of what Jimmy Page said about Tiny Tim's rendition of Stairway to Heaven: Thank God, someone finally killed that song.

If he takes requests, my wife (Kitteh, here) and I have fantasized about a Primus cover of "Get Low" by Flo Rida for years now.

Holy gosh, There I Ruined It and DJ Cummerbund are the SAME GUY?! I'm flabbergasted!

If you haven't heard "Oohwa Mahna" yet, listen to it right the dang now. You can thank/curse me later.

UPDATE: It appears they are not the same person.

As a fan of Elvis and Mix-A-Lot, I kind of love this.

Looking forward to finally hearing Billie Holiday's Christmas record (as imagined by David Sedaris).

The best Radiohead Country/Blugrass crossover is Hard n Phirm's Rodeohead.

I legit love this.
