Look, I don't really like Ke$ha either. But I totally love this video, made by 11-year-old YouTube user xNoizeBeatx, which features an ingame tribute to Minecraft sung to the beat of Ke$ha's "Tik Tok."


(Note how I did not say "sung to the tune of Ke$sha's 'Tik Tok.'")

If any of its elements had been a little bit out of whack, this could have been the most unbearable video of all time. And yet… the combination of the charming, enthusiastic lyrics, the off-key singing, and the great editing totally cracks me up.


Lyrical highlights:

Dont stop

Building things

Crafting Stuff you've never seen

Tonight

Gotta Fight

Till theres no zombies in sight

and

I'm talking running for your life life

Skeletons shoot their arrows

Respawn in a little meadow

Lost all my things

But that's okay okay

Lets try and find my base

Lets try and find my base

So... yeah. Check it out. I certainly wasn't this cool when I was eleven.
