i still think the original few were the funniest things i've ever seen on the net.

My favorites are "Kenny G and Michael Bolton Shred"https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7P6QYWqRxww
Also the Hall and Oates Maneater. I have to take that one in small doses, it's so good.

St Sanders is probably the most accomplished (was he not also the original shred video maker?) but the Beach Boys' I Get Around and Johnny and June Carter Cash's Jackson both still leave me gasping for air

the Elvis one too, that one is brilliant

My only issue is that the original song isn't much less ridiculous than this version.― emil.y, Wednesday, September 27, 2017 12:01 PM (yesterday) Bookmark Flag Post PermalinkTruth.― he doesn't need to be racist about it though.

Both sound like a bit of a rough patch at a jamband festival.

The best shreds are definitely for me the guitar-heavy mainstream rock/pop-rock - the Focus tune seems about the absolute limit. Any further and we're going down the Captain Beefheart shreds route.

Had to close my door from laughing at the drum pad with the "Damn!" and air horn sounds.

Given the hysterical response to that video, it's clear that I should continue to keep my Beaterator tracks to myself.

I was curious enough to go watch the original video, and in only made the shred one funnier.

I went back and watched the Eddie Van Halen one, which might have been the first or one of the first I ever saw, and it still kills me.

It was a treat to see Questlove discover and fall down the *SHREDS* rabbit hole a few weeks back, he was posting tons of videos on his Instagram story.

H and I still often quote the Bohemian Rhapsody vid: "It's my bad cool dad!" "WE MIGHT BE HAVING FIIIISH" etc. I think sometimes we don't even remember where it came from when we're saying it, these are just things that we say.

I hadn't seen the Celine Dion 'My Heart Will Go On' one until recently but my god there is one particular moment in there where I'm pretty sure I laughed so hard I ruptured something.
