World, I bring you news of a band you need to know about. A band so awesome, so strange and so wonderful that to not know it is to know only sadness. I’m talking about Rock Sugar.

Now on their site they have a whole story about the band, a great fake history. And that’s great for what it is but let’s cut to the chase. Rock Sugar takes 80s metal songs and then uses 80s pop songs for the lyrics. Mostly. Sometimes its mash-ups of two or three songs, and so on. They don’t limit themselves. The thing is they play the songs and sing them. This isn’t a DJ remixing an awesome mash-up. This is a band playing its heart out and selling the fuck out of this madness.

Let me give you an example, and then after the video we’ll continue this discussion:

I have a new video blog: Video of the Moment. It’s a tumblr where I will randomly drop videos that amuse me, or whatever. Subscribe to the RSS feed, becaise I do plan on posting a bunch there. Videos will still show up here when I feel the need for commentary, but otherwise – They’re over here, now.

For example: French Star Wars. Enjoy.

No, bird, stop that. You are a bird, not a metal worker. You will break your face. Silly bird. Oh, silly silly bird.

Have a nice night:

Star Blazers (Space Battleship Yamoto) is getting a live action movie? Oh holy shit! This looks awesome! Here’s the trailer:

Someone found a way to make one of the prequel Star Wars movies watchable! Revenge of the Sith + Clerks = worth your time.

The A-Team opening, done with Star Wars. I wanna watch that show.

Also, the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Daleks. If you ever saw the old Hitchhiker’s TV show you’ll remember what those entries looked like. This is a really good take on it all.

So you know how people redub video and it never syncs right? Well this time it does. Why? Because the people doing this made sure to say things that matched the characters movements. Of course, those were random things that happened to fit… this is one of the strangest videos ever. Star Trek: TNG with random sentences. Somehow I find it hysterical.

No, they’re not kidding. The “Christian side hug” – because “front hugs is sinful.” Yep. Did you know if you hug someone normally you will end up fucking them? NOW YOU KNOW!

Also they’re “Rough riders, filled up with Christ’s love,” if you were curious.

These are the easy rules so pay attention, it’s essential
This ain’t no front hug zone. You ain’t that fly (something).
Stop. And listen. No front hugs and no kissin’.
