I don't actually know how to embed Youtube videos, so I'll just link to this.

My new favorite 300 mash-up. The first video I've seen that expands its appeal beyond ultra-violence.

Via Sullivan. But if you've seen the video you probably guessed that.

I must admit to being vaguely dissapointed they didn't use the Geri Halliwell version.

Yes, I'm aware it's a cover, and not a very good one at that. Despite this, it's become the version I think of when that song is mentioned.

I don't object in principle to prefering covers. Covers can be better. Similarly irrational attachments to the familar is cool, so long as you admit it.

And I have to admit that Halliwell's enthusiasm in that song made up for her obvious lack of talent. It being ridiculously overproduced helped as well. (I adore hellaciously overproduced music)
