My dog was biting on the toys shown in the video and by chance he ended up making a tune which sounded like the game of thrones music.That turned into this.. The audio is indeed recorded on these very toys…from my phone and then auto-tuned to sound like the way it does.

Amazing Reading Rainbow Metal Cover [Video]
Reading Rainbow is one of the greatest American kid’s TV shows of all time… OF ALLLLL TIIIIIME! I am an avid reader thanks to my parents encouragement and to shows like that. I used to watch it probably every single day when I was little. I hope you guys enjoy my version of the theme. It’s got kind of an emo / alt rock vibe and reminds me of the kind of stuff I used to play in my old band.

This is Hilarious: O Fortuna Misheard Lyrics
Yes, it totally makes sense now!
“O Fortuna” is a medieval Latin Goliardic poem written early in the thirteenth century, part of the collection known as the Carmina Burana. It is a complaint about fate and Fortuna, a goddess in Roman mythology and personification of luck.
In 1935-36, O Fortuna was set to music by the German composer Carl Orff as a part of his cantata Carmina Burana where it is used as the opening and closing number. It opens on a slower pace with thumping drums and choir that drops quickly into a whisper building slowly into a steady crescendo of drums and short string and horn notes peaking on one last long powerful note and ending abruptly. A performance takes a little over two and one-half minutes. [Source]
