Okay, that's curious. Those videos aren't remotely in the order I posted them. I'd edit my post to correct it, but don't want to deal with the way the board software causes youtube links to disappear in edit mode. The one that's supposed to be labelled "the weirdest of the bunch" is the mashup of "Hollaback Girl/Man of Constant Sorrow".
Slight digression here: My mother, after seeing "O Brother," remarked on what a good singing voice George Clooney had.
There's a song I keep hearing on my store's PA system which appears to be a mutant combination of "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" (although not in this case sung by Pat Benatar) and that "One way or another I'm gonna get ya get ya get ya" song.
