Music Video: Titus Jones "I Wanna Bulletproof Dancer" (Taylor Swift / Whitney Houston / Robyn / La Roux mashup)



This one's a bit clubbier than the others I've posted so far, so it's less weird, more throbby/thumpy, and about a minute longer than it needed to be, but I like it anyway. Robyn is like ketchup: put enough in and anything becomes palatable. Even Taylor Swift.1

Ok I actually kind of love this one.

I downloaded this one a couple of weeks ago. What is your opinion of Girl Talk?

MrBrownThumb said...

Oops, I meant The Hood Internet, not Girl Talk.

I hadn't heard of THI before. Found their page, and couldn't find a single THI mashup where I knew two of the component songs. I had trouble finding any mashups where I knew one of the component songs, and the two one-song mashups I listened to sounded awfully alike. So I basically have no opinion -- without the original songs as reference points, there's not much I can say.

Check out The Kleptones. Great mashup group. The new double album, "Uptime/Downtime" is pretty good, and you definitely need to check out their full-length whole album mash-ups "Yoshimi Battles The Hip-Hop Robots" and "A Night at the Hip-Hopera". The "Yoshimi" one is the best mashup record ever IMO.

Ok, that's pretty much like my opinion too. I mean, I WANT to like them 'cause all the cool kids in my Twitter stream do, but I just can't get into them.

Also, it seems their mashups are rather hard and mashups to me should be fun and breezy.
