I have to admit musician Gotye’s hit “Somebody That I Used to Know” has been stuck in my head for a week. And it’s inspired a host of covers and parodies. Below is a tongue in cheek cover of a cover in Hebrew. In it, Roi Lavi and the Good Guys reproduce a six-on-one-guitar cover of the song by Walk Off the Earth. Original videos below the fold.

Am I wrong, or is this more or less the same song as “Don’t You Want Me, Baby?” Which is more than cool with me.

if they only could’ve faded out with the keyboard player eating the potato chips, instead of the laugh, even better.
