For some reason, I've been drawn in as a big fan of the music mashup genre, which takes two typically dissimilar songs and mixes them together in a new and compelling fashion. This combination of a classic Beatles song with a Nine Inch Nails tune resulting in Come Closer Together is a classic example of the product exceeding the sum of the parts. (NIN fans will of course recognize this as NSFW.)

Mashup of the Week Podcast and Best of Bootie are two great places to get up to speed and download a few of these "new" classics. And since we're in a music mode, a few more great music blogs that will allow you to expand your horizons are sterogum, An Aquarium Drunkard and Another Form of Relief.
