This is completely fabulous.
EDIT:
I found the author of this piece of brilliance - John Boswell at symphonyofscience.com.
It's been a long time since I've posted about Mashuptown. I'm not sure why.
But there's no way I let this one slip by unnoticed!

This is incredibly well done - a mashup of Bela Lugosi's Dead with the Walt Disney 'Haunted Mansion' soundtrack, by Howard Hallis .
(found on BoingBoing for course).
It's been way too long since I've caught up with m'man Art's Mashuptown.
Here's an absolutely inspired mash of My Sharona with Enter Sandman and among other things) Sympathy for the Devil. The really funny thing is the way this treatment takes Enter Sandman from ominous and scary to something between funky and southern-rock swagger; the vocal, out of context and stripped of backing (and sped up) sounds completely different. I think the first half of the song (featuring Sandman) works better, the second half features the vocal from Sympathy for the Devil. But it makes for a very listenable (and very danceable) mash.
Listen here: ToToM - Enter North American Sharona
Thanks, Art. I gots me some catchin' up to do.
Art at Mashuptown sez:
DJ Rolf takes Metallica and mixes it up with some Aretha Franklin. Simple A+B hard rocking Mash. If this track doesn't get you goin' nothin' will. Props to our man in the NL Rolf. Enjoy.
This gives me fuckin' chills.
A brilliant, absolutely brilliant mash of Johnny Cash vs Nirvana vs Blue Oyster Cult vs New Order by DJ Dangerous Orange; you can get the track here.
That Johhny Cash song seeps into my skull anyway and I walk around knowing exactly what he's talkin' about. The fact that this mashup maintains that feeling impresses the hell out of me.
Props to my man Art at Mashuptown - I've been neglecting his site and have found a treasure trove of tracks I've not heard. As usual he's got nuthin' but the finest mash. Give 'im a Hell Yeah for me.
Wow. This pretty much defines fucked up.
I want to stick an icepick in my ear. But, you know, in a good way.
(Thanks, Art, you rule)
Something is good and right in the world when photoshoppers/mashup artists take on the horrific 'art' that is Thomas Kinkade.
And the result is fucking hysterical. There are pages and pages of this, don't stop, they just keep getting better.
Gems like these:
Via BoingBoing, who make mondays less dreary.
It's been too damned long since i gave a shout-out to m'man Art's site, MashupTown.
So here y'all go.
Put on the Super Freak - Superfreak vs. Roxanne. This clip fuckin' rules.
Wonder Bop - the Ramones vs. Oasis. Some love it, some hate it. It's so wrong in a way that's so right.
And finally, Dirty Deeds will Rock You - AC/DC vs. Queen. This thing just needed to exist, I tell ya.
Art, you rock my world.
Hey, you know what I wanna hear? more mashups features UFO or Scorpions. Someone's gotta be doin' that shit.
