GOTYE goes meta and out smarts the impersonators

In a move reminiscent of Frank Zappa's brilliant 'Beat the Boots' boxed set where he stole back bootleg recordings of his own live shows and issued them as legitimate albums, Gotye has taken all the YouTube cover versions of his "Somebody That I Used To Know" and made a 6 minute mash-up. Don't worry, you won't have to endure the droning lyrics - it's a dub version featuring the cornucopia of imaginative instrumental interpretations. The payoff comes at the 3.50 mark with a brilliant bit of comic parody.
