Awesome Mashups

Puddles Pity Party takes on haters and trolls by doing what he does best – singing away the pain. His mashup of Black Sabbath’s Paranoid and The Police track Driven to Tears is the perfect combination of madness and sorrow for the Sad Clown with the Golden Voice.

There I Ruined It takes a momentary pause from ruining songs to delight us with a little musical mashup. It makes no sense on paper, but combining Eminem’s Lose Yourself with the theme from Super Mario Bros. somehow works just perfectly.

There are few things more distinctively British than Doctor Who and Blur. Inspired by an idea from his 9-year-old son, DJ Phil B combined the Doctor Who theme with Blur’s Parklife, and tossed in a little of The Timelords/The KLF’s Doctorin’ the TARDIS. Like the TARDIS itself, this mashup is bigger on the inside.

What do Lizzo and Linkin Park have in common? Nothing. Until now. Remixer DJ Cummerbund waves his musical magic wand once again, combining two completely unrelated songs into one tasty treat. Lizzo’s About Damn Time brings the lead vocals while Linkin Park’s In The End provides the rhythm and backing vocals.

After seeing how well The Muppet Show theme synced up with Dirty Dancing, TikToker drkritz was inspired to do the same with another famous movie dance routine. It turns out that Renee Zellweger and Catherine Zeta-Jones’ Nowadays dance from Chicago works perfectly with the theme from Fraggle Rock.

The finale of Dirty Dancing is one of the most iconic movie moments ever. So the idea that you could just swap out (I’ve Had) The Time of My Life and replace it with the theme from The Muppet Show doesn’t seem right. But Pandamoanimum proved otherwise with this perfectly-timed mashup. (Thanks, Rob!)

You know what makes any fight sequence better? Lightsabers, naturally. ActiveSufi took one of the great action sequences from the Disney+ series Moon Knight and upgraded our hero’s weapons with plasma power. Is Oscar Isaac the key to unlocking a Star Wars/Marvel crossover universe? (Thanks, Rob!)

Musical mashup maker Bill McClintock took Survivor’s track Eye of the Tiger, slowed it down a bit, and combined it with the old Merle Haggard Goodbye Comes Hard for Me, turning the formerly energetic Rocky III theme song into a twangy bluegrass ballad.

We know what several other songs would sound like if Blink-182 sang them, but what if Tom Jones joined the band and took over as lead singer from Tom DeLonge? DJ Cummerbund adds a dash of pop punk to the 1965 tune that got the ladies tossing their underwear at the buff Welshman.

Disco and heavy metal. They go together like peanut butter and chocolate. At least that’s how we feel after listening to Bill McClintock’s unlikely mashup, which combines Donna Summer’s 1979 hit Bad Girls with Glenn Danzig’s Mother. Toot toot, hey, tell your children not to walk my way.

Austin Powers is back, and this time he’s in Mass Effect: Part 2. eli_handle_b․wav returns with another hilarious mashup of these very different franchises. This time, the swinging 1960s bachelor becomes the latest subject of The Lazarus Project, mows down a Geth Colossus, and has a sexy photoshoot with Kelly Chambers.

Let’s go crazy… down in this Hell. Bill McClintock imagines a world where Prince and Slayer could perform on the same stage, combining bits of Let’s Go Crazy, Black Magic, Angel of Death, Seasons in the Abyss, and War Ensemble, with a dash of Van Halen’s I’m the One and Led Zeppelin’s Whole Lotta Love for added flavor.

Following up on TS: Terminators, filmmaker Fabrice Mathieu combined footage from more than 25 movies to create this imaginative sequel to Terminator 2 that envisions a timeline where Skynet sends back multiple T-800s to hunt down Sarah and John Connor. The car chase sequence alone is worth the price of admission.

(PG-13: Lyrics) Brooklyn meets Oslo in DJ Cummerbund’s mashup of Jay-Z’s Dirt Off Your Shoulder and A-ha’s Take on Me. Beyoncé, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Marvin Gaye, and Randy “Macho Man” Savage help round out the track.

The 1980s gave us quite the variety of music. Bill McClintock imagines what might have happened if Iron Maiden and Michael Sembello went on tour in 1983 and performed a song together. We would have gone with the title “She’s a Maniac Trooper,” which sounds much more like a 1980s sci-fi action movie.

What happens when you take N.E.R.D.’s banger Lapdance and combine it with AC/DC’s Back in Black? Musical genius, that’s what. DJ Cummerbund works his magic on these two very different songs and added a dash of Big & Rich for flavor. It’s so good that the track scored a spot on the Deadpool 3 soundtrack.

For those too young to remember, Leo Sayer was a maestro of disco-pop music in the 1970s. To make things interesting, mashup artist Bill McClintock melded the pop sounds of You Make Me Feel Like Dancing with Metallica’s Sad But True for a combination as delicious as chocolate and peanut butter.

DJ Cummerbund combined the sounds of Green Day, Warren Zeiders, Metallica, and Randy “Macho Man” Savage to create a twangy, country-fied mashup of Ride the Lightning and Boulevard of Broken Dreams.

A whole lot of people died in Squid Game. But would it have been any better if the eliminated contestants were robots instead? Shutter Authority had a little CGI fun in Blender and replaced the humans with robots in the iconic Red Light, Green Light sequence. Will WALL-E make it to the finish line?

Frank and Mack are as desperate as ever and find themselves as contestant number 218 and 456 on Squid Game. But can The Warthog play it subtle and take home the contents of the piggy bank, or will he just lose his mind and ruin everything as usual?

After being frozen for over 220 years, a secret agent awakens to find himself in a strange new world surrounded by unfamiliar characters. Can he win them over with his swinging 1960s charm, or will the Reapers destroy him? eli_handle_b․wav created this hilarious mashup of two very strange bedfellows.

Musical mashup and meme maker William Maranci managed to assemble this brilliant mashup just in time for Halloween, somehow blending together Ray Parker Jr.’s theme from Ghostbusters with Nine Inch Nails’ industrial classic Closer.

The Simpsons’ resident bully Nelson Muntz spends his days in Springfield, and his evenings in Midnight City. Or at least that’s what we’ve been lead to believe by Teo Domani, who figured out that Nelson’s familiar “Ha-Ha!” taunt fits perfectly into the electronic sounds of the track by M83.
