Making Music With A Car

Here is an old but still interesting music article. 

It's about the creativity of one Canadian band.

The band is called "Walk off the Earth". They are known for their low-budget music videos of covers and originals. 

Our favorite video is their car loop version of their song "Gang of Rhythm".

This could be the perfect commercial for volkswagen, don't you think?

And who knows, maybe they were inspired by Julian Smith's - Techno Jeep video.

However, both of the videos show some real creativity.

 Gang Of Rhythm Lyrics


 
I got this old guitar

The strings are rusty
But it's all I need
Bring in the kick drum
It can back the beat
Let's gather round and sing a song
I got a shaker too
The kinds of sound
That wants to make you move
Bring in the uke
It will complete the groove
Let's gather round and sing a song
There's no worries on the earth tonight
We're all walkin' off the world tonight
Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
We're like a locomotive
Under the big hot sun
We're chained to the gang of rhythm
The song is never done
Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
Come on everyone
We got this melody
Bring in the harmony like csny
To write a tune you know will never die
Let's gather round and sing a song
There's no worries on the earth tonight
We're all walkin' off the world tonight
Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
We're like a locomotive
Under the big hot sun
We're chained to the gang of rhythm
The song is never done
Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
Come on everyone
And when the night is done
These chains will hold us strong
The chords will carry on
Long after we're gone oh oh
There's no worries on the earth tonight
We're all walkin' off the world tonight
Come on now everyone yeah
Come now everyone
We're like like a locomotive
Under the big hot sun
Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
We're like a locomotive
Under the big hot sun
We're chained to the gang of rhythm
The song is never done
Come on now everyone yeah
Come on now everyone
Come on everyone
We got this melody
Come on everyone
Bring in the harmony
Come on everyone
I got this old guitar
The strings are rusty
But it's all I need
