To be fair, this one was probably pretty easy to do. They're basically the same song.

Yeah but.....did anyone else think to do it? And edit together with comedic flare? How many times have you heard a riff that's completely awesome, yet so simple you can teach someone who's never played guitar how to play it in 5 minutes and think; man I could have written that!! "I will Follow", "Iron Man" etc. Poison never become Poison without that simple fucking Talk Dirty To Me riff.

Don't get me wrong, I love the guy's videos. I thought the "Hip To Be the Sandman" mashup was genius.

I just thought this one was a little more obvious. Surprised it hadn't been done before.

I was trying to think of what the two songs would be. "Celebrate" was a given, but in my head, before I clicked on the link, I was thinking "Right now! Ce-le-brate good times, come on! It's everything!"

Still enjoy the mashups though. Good stuff!

The Eddie-Sammy combination forms its most explosive bonding on “Best of Both Worlds.” Centered on a transcendent guitar riff not unlike the chordal motif of Kool and the Gang’s “Celebration,” “Best of Both Worlds” is a double rock dialectic.

Lol. I memba that. RS was all in on Van Hagar from the jump. Roth must've done something to piss someone off there.
