TIIA 28 (The Internet is Awesome)

 photo TIIAcolor_zpshc41rmb6.png

I've been so busy with school that It's been months since my last Internet Awesome post! I'm close to the end though, and I've gotten enough done that I finally feel like I can breathe a bit. Last night I actually wrote an article for the Rotoscopers, just spur of the moment, and today I just up and decided to blog! I love it when I feel like I can just spend some time on writing for fun without feeling like I should be doing something else. :)

First up we have a video by the always amazing Evynne Hollens. I loved the movie Anastasia as a kid, so I was very happy to see it covered here.:)



Tessa Violet is infectious. Her voice, spirit, joy, everything.



This next video is a painting by Mary Doodles. I was so absolutely impressed when I figured out what she was painting that I actually left a comment, which I never do.




I've been waiting four years for Peter Hollens to do another collab with Alaa Wardi! It's finally happened! :D


He also recently collaborated with Tim Foust of Home Free, and that was also amazing.


A capalla Science is back at it again, this time with an awesome and brilliant spin on a bunch of songs from the movie Aladdin! And not only that, but one of his collaborators is the French YouTuber, Trudbol, who was one of the first a capella artists I ever followed on YouTube!


We'll end this post with another amazing song from Lindsey Stirling. Not only is the music amazing, so is the video! I just love her imagination.



That's all for this post, but I'm actually working on another one that I'll probably release tomorrow. I had enough videos that were released in April, that I think I'm going to start a new series looking back at the month. Maybe that'll force me to keep on top of them. So be on the lookout for that. :)

TIIA 26 (The Internet is Awesome)

Let's start this post out right with one of my all-time favorite Pomplamoose songs, Bust Your Kneecaps. Yes, it's about exactly what the title says. :p



Evynne Hollens is back with another classic Disney song, this time from one of my recent favorites, Tangled. With her son Ashland as my favorite Disney animal sidekick, Pascal the chameleon. Too cute. :p



One of my favorite songs, by one of my favorite artists, covered by one of my favorite a cappella artists. I love it when things come together like this. :)



This I'm sharing just because it made me laugh. :p



This next song is currently a very popular song, that I don't particularly like. EXCEPT for this version by Walk Off the Earth. There's just something about their version that sets it apart from any of the others that I've heard. It's probably the kazoos. :p



A cappella science is back with another amazing science song!



In my last post I shared a weird video by the artist Poppy, which you can find HERE, but I thought maybe you'd like to see a video where she wasn't being unnaturally odd. Or at least, what she does for a career. Which is also weird in its own way. She's just weird all around. Which I'm totally fine with. :p As you can tell, she is just as much of a parody of celebrity culture in her music videos as she is in her shorter, weirder videos, like the one I posted previously.



We'll end this post with three videos from my personal YouTube trinity of awesome, Pentatonix,



Peter Hollens,



and Lindsey Stirling.

TIIA 24 (The Internet is Awesome)

 photo TIIAcolor_zpshc41rmb6.png

This week was Halloween, and while I don't have enough videos to do a dedicated Halloween post, I did want to feature the couple I did have, (both Disney related of course :p) starting with this awesome video from VoicePlay.



And then there was this one with Jon Cozart and a group I had not heard of before, Voctave.



And after that I followed the link to another amazing video that they did with Pentatonix's Kristen Maldonado.



So basically I found yet another awesome a-capella group to follow. :p

Something almost as scary as Halloween, Politics. I know, I know, normally I  won't touch politics on my blog with a ten foot pole, but there were a couple recent videos that pertain to the election that were just too good not to share.

Anyone following the election will remember the uproar earlier this year when Melania Trump seemed to have plagiarized a large portion of her speech from a speech that Michelle Obama had given a few years back. Well, the Gregory Brothers took those two speeches and turned them into something amazing.



And then there was this video that made me laugh till it hurt from Funny or Die.



Okay, enough of this scary stuff, back to the regular post. :p

The Hound + the Fox don't post often but, but when they do, it's sure to be good. Case in point, this excellent cover of For the Dancing and the Dreaming, from How to Train Your Dragon 2.



Alaa Wardi's a capella is always amazing, but this, very different, very not-a-cappella video he made in partnership with Reeses is a completely different kind of amazing. I love it.



Pentatonix recently put out this remix of their hit single, Can't Sleep Love, and even though this remix is no longer an a cappella song, I think I might love this version even more!



This video from A Capella Science is just amazing, you have to watch it. I can't even describe it, just watch it.



Evynne Hollens' tradition of Disney-fying popular songs continues in this massive collab with a bunch of other YouTubers, including Nick Pitera as Hans, and Peter Hollens as... Snow White?! Yes, it's as amazing as it sounds. :p
