Teenage Dream Cover Is Better Than Original
Posted on 15. Sep, 2010 by Karri Wells.
I think this cover of Teenage Dream by Wendy is actually better than Katy Perry‘s original. They have a couple more covers over on their YouTube channel, including a pretty good version of Justin Bieber’s ‘Baby’.
Like what you hear? You can download the free MP3 of the song over at http://wendy.bandcamp.com/

Joseph Gordon-Levitt Covers Lady Gaga
Posted on 08. Sep, 2010 by Karri Wells.
I’ve always found Joseph Gordon-Levitt a-freaking-dorable. We are the same age, so growing up he always epitomized my ideals of an imaginary celebrity boyfriend.
Tommy Solomon in Third Rock From the Sun
Cameron in 10 Things I Hate About You
Tom in 500 Days of Summer
Arthur in Inception
While my friends were pining for Heath Ledger’s character Patrick in ‘10 Things I Hate About You‘, I was swooning over Bianca’s beau Cameron. He was the only reason I ever watched 3rd Rock From the Sun, I’m still pissed at Zoe Deschanel for breaking his heart in 500 Days of Summer, and I’m going to go out on a limb here, but I think he out heart-throbbed Leonardo DiCaprio in Inception.
Check him out covering Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance at HitRECord‘s Summer in the City concert series.

Have Your Beer and Make Music Too
Posted on 03. Sep, 2010 by Karri Wells.
Tuned Pale Ale combines two of my great loves in life, music and beer. How many times have you blown into your beer bottle to make a sound? I’ve always loved experimenting with the different tones I can achieve, much to the dismay of my drinking compadres.
Tuned Pale Ale takes that concept a couple steps further. The bottles come in various shapes and sizes which produce different sounds. The label tells you what notes can be played when the beer reaches each level. If that wasn’t already cool enough, the holder can be turned upside down and played as a drum. Has your mind exploded yet? Think of all the impromptu jam sessions this is bound to inspire.
The only bad part is that you can’t actually buy this anywhere. The creators, Matt Braun and Chris Mufalli, produced a small batch initially, and are now looking for larger brewing and distribution options.
What other food and beverages items could be transformed into instruments? 1, 2, 3 brainstorm!!

So Facebook is getting a movie, is there any reason that Twitter shouldn’t have one too?
