Imagine One Day I Came To Say Hello (Relationships)

After spending a week going over old posts (and seemingly putting more work into it than the first time) I've been kind of Jonesin' to get into some more mashes, so to make up for some lost time it's a two-for-one day in the Mash Pit!!

The Top 10

It's time for me to once again update my Top 10 list (here's the old list). The list of my ten favourite mashups. This is entirely my own opinion, with some influence from the readers here (but only a little). There only rule I have about making it onto the Top 10 is that the song has to have a video. There are a few songs I really love but don't make it onto the list for this reason. Without further ado, let's get rocking!

First up is a mash that's been in the Pit for awhile now. I'm finally convinced (by you guys) that it deserves to be here on the Top 10.

10. Mashed Bananas (Billy Loves My Hollaback Bridge Humps) - TheGodFather2010

This is another fan favourite, which until yesterday was the most popular mashup in the Pit. It is the video more than anything that makes this one so great.

9. Enjoy Jumping Around - DJ Schmolli

I decided to replace Genesis with Madonna (but still keep Gorillaz). These two mashups have replaced each other a few times now in the Top 10 as I keep flip-flopping over which I like better.

8. Feel Hung Up Inc. - emadonn

It was a tough call, but I replaced Girls On Film Freak Out. This is imho the best of the many great Duran Duran mashes, and one of the best Deadmau5 mashes. Of which there are also many great ones.

7. Ghosts On Film - 10000 Spoons and Celebrity Murder Party

Still on the list is this classic Earworm Mashup. Another reason why he is the best.

6. If I Were A Free Fallin' Boy - DJ Earworm

I think that I like this In Da Club mashup slightly better than the One with Men At Work.

5. Rasputin's Club - Mr Gees

I finally decided to drop A Whole Lotta Sabbath. It was a tough call, but it had to be done. I really do love it's replacement. It's been stuck in my head since I first heard it. Easily the best use of Duck Sauce out there ;-)

4. Flex Gym Duck - Marc Johnce

Another tough call, but I replaced Hive's Wedding. I like this White Wedding mash slightly better. The acrobats are what give it the edge ;-)

3. Twisted Insomniac Wedding - LeeDM101

No change at number two. This is the Mashup that inspired me to start this blog and I still love it. Two of my favourite bands ever. Unfortunately though I did drop Maiden Goes to Bollywood, another one of the many great Iron Maiden Mashups.

2. Exodus Revealed - DJ Lobsterdust

Still at number one is what in my own humble opinion the greatest mashup ever made. DJ Earworm's masterpiece. I love how he took a huge number of songs and made a completely new (and totally awesome!) mashup.

1. What's My Name? - DJ Earworm

New Years Pop!!

Since it is my opinion that DJ Earworm is the world's greatest Mashup Artist. I don't think I am alone in this opinion. He released this year's United State Of Pop 2010 - Don't Stop The Pop on December 28 (I would know, I was viewer 17) and it's now at nearly 4.5 million views. Last years (Blame it on the Pop) has over 32 million views. Mashups are getting out there...

I thought it appropriate to kick off 2011 with a salute to his yearly top-of-the-pops mashups. At the end of every year puts together a mashup of the years top 25 songs (according to Billboard). Starting with 2007. I will list the songs and artist after the videos.

2007 - United States of Pop
