Awesomes.

I wish they'd play the chapter titles music as well. I still sing that to myself during any movie's/show's chapter sequence.

Ron Gilbert, come back and make a new Monkey Island game.

I have never played any of these games, and apparently that's a crime.

Totally cool. So they got the traditional, the dance beat version, and the heavily percussionalized violin version, is there other renditions out there? How bout a hard rockin version. That would be the hardest rocking monkey head I've ever seen.

Eliza, thank you for enriching my life with these vids.


The Monkey Island techno remix had me cracking up.

You're welcome, stummies. That remix is apparently popular among ravers who have no idea it's a cover. I hadn't heard of it until tonight!
