Slightly behind the times...but two guitars at the same time! Genius.

The group Walk Off the Earth performs the song "Somebody That I Used to Know," originally by the Australian singer-songwriter Gotye. The catch? They all play on different parts of the same guitar.

It'd be easy to dismiss the five-musicians-one-guitar schtick as a gimmick, but the group actually creates a beautifully-executed rendition of the song in its own right, perfect for listening if you're celebrating Single's Awareness Day today.

Remember the overly attached girlfriend who sang that ... interesting ... version of Justin Bieber's "Boyfriend?" She's back, this time with her own rendition of "Call Me Maybe." Chills and creepy stalker vibes abound.

We know, we know. You've heard both of these songs a million times before, and not even an adorable mashup of the two by Pomplamoose might keep you from rolling your eyes and saying "UGH, not AGAIN" (did you do that? Be honest!) But this arrangement is executed well enough to be worth your time, and the music video defies the obvious visuals by paying homage to the 2009 thriller "The Box" (or possibly "Button Button" by Richard Matheson, the short story on which the movie was based).

Wait for the violin and the little harp to come out.

For everyone who's pissed about TNMT being turned into aliens in the upcoming Michael Bay explosiaganza.

Musician Charles Laurita created this toned-down rendition of our favorite seedy space-bar music.

Everyone's favorite heavy metal cover artist might be a little late to the party with Gotye covers and parodies, but that doesn't mean he's any less welcome (we still love you!). Maybe next he can do a metal cover with five people on one guitar.

This one-string cover is meant to less the guitarist's skill than how generic and simple Asking Alexandria is.

The second season of Game of Thrones aired last night! To celebrate, here's a metal cover of the theme song. Shows about high medieval warring kingdoms are practically begging for metal-inspired takes on them anyway.

This will change the way you listen to your appliances.
