LISNews: Librarian Blog Since 1999

I think I've said before that my life is really just a series of song snippets. Here lately, groups like The Killers, Blue October, Hinder and others of their ilk are speaking to me.

Well, with the proliferation of YouTube and the ability of some really creative people to make their own videos with clips of movies added to songs, I've just about done in my poor cable modem watching vids of Phantom of the Opera!

Of course, the original musical by Weber is tres fabu, and I've seen it twice in person. But the film adaption was exquisitely done and makes me cry every time I watch it. (yeah, I had to buy it)

Anyway, here's one version of Phantom done to a song by Ben Jelen (oy! could we have another Dr. Scholl's reference please?) and I never would have guessed I liked it.

Enjoy!
