Last Friday, our musical robot on WaveRadio, DJ ME8H, played a track called "The price is right" by Punk Bunny. Part of its melody (where it says "80 dollars, gimme a holla") reminded me of a YouTube video I'd seen called "My hands are bananas", so my first reaction was to think the Bananas people copied Punk Bunny. However, it turns out Punk Bunny may have been the copycats in this case, because their song was released in December 2007, whereas the Bananas video was uploaded on YouTube in the summer of 2006 and has had more than 5 million views since. In any case, they are both musical and visual masterpieces, so check 'em out!
