What a concept. This tweet from MaglioJen popped off featuring the translated lyrics to Smash Mouth's late 90's, early 00's anthem "All Star." The thing was originally translated by Isaac Mayer and he even performed the Aramaic version on Youtube. Still sounds like a pretty damn great song no matter the language.
From their monster hits All Star, I'm a Believer or Walkin' on the Sun, to their hilarious Twitter account, it's hard to not love late-'90s legends Smash Mouth. In their honor, here are 14 memes that celebrate the band's absolute genius. We really hope you love them as much as we do.
Smash Mouth has spoken in regards to where they stand with the whole "Straight Pride Parade" being planned by a few dudes out of Boston. Simply put, they're not having any of it. And Twitter can't get enough of Smash Mouth yelling at the rest of the online world about how they feel about a "Straight Pride Parade."
So, that's what the voice of God sounds like then. Any funeral of mine that fails to play this song, is an outright disgrace, and you better believe I'll do nothing short of 'roll over in my grave.'
Do you hate yourself?
Perfect. Have I got the song for you. Then you have got to listen to this version of Smash Mouth’s immortal “All Star.” What’s so special about it? Well, all of the notes in the song are auto-tuned to C. This is a disorienting, terrifying, and maddening ride that will make your week very, very weird.
Prepare yourself for the worst song of the year.
Smash Mouth was performing a headlining set at the Urbana Sweetcorn Festival when their lead singer, Steve Harwell, collapsed mid-set. Fans were left trying to figure out what the hell was going on. Still, the show went on as the band continued to play and even closed the set with their Smash hits 'I'm a Believer' and 'All Star'.
According to those in attendance, after Harwell left the stage the crowd reportedly began chanting "Shrek", leaving the remaining band member with no real option but to perform the cult classics.
