Birds on a Wire
"Reading a newspaper, I saw a picture of birds on the electric wires. I cut out the photo and decided to make a song, using the exact location of the birds as notes (no Photoshop edit)," said Agnelli.

There's something enchanting about these localized versions of Roger Miller's "Oo De Lally" from Disney's Robin Hood from 1973. While all of these videos were found on YouTube, each was created by a different person around the world.

Play It Again, Sam (J/K!)
An online poll conducted in the '90s set Vitaly Komar, Alex Melamid and David Soldier on a quest to create the most annoying song ever. After gathering data about people's least favorite music and lyrical subjects, they did the unthinkable: they combined them into a single monstrosity, specifically engineered to sound unpleasant to the maximum percentage of listeners. The song is not new, but it resurfaced on Dial "M" for Musicology.
Amazingly, this "most unwanted music" contains little dissonance -- that would have been too easy. For the most part, they seem to have tried to assemble these elements in a listenable way.

Get Your Boots On
Sure, the Mashup phenomenon has died down a little, but this was submitted when, oddly enough, I'd just discovered ToTeM's Mashups. So I'm posting it mostly because I still like them, but also because they contain a pretty eclectic selection of tunes. Also included further down the page are links where you can download them all at your leisure.
Enjoy. Some of them are pretty damn good.
