I'm jealous of mashup artists, jealous of their talent. I love music, not in a refined adult way, but like a child in a cafeteria mixing every soda from the machine into one cup. I love hearing one song mesh into another like Sprite and Slice. So the videos below, which all compare songs that sound alike, are my Mega-Coke-Punch.
