Key switches are so much fun.

I like this one: "Every breath you take" in minor key, unfortunately it isn't the full song. The comments are excellent.

That was great, some of the YouTube comments got a good chuckle from me as well.

Adventure Line from the Stanley Parable because I feel like my life is on rails. Also the song is catchy, especially the Christmas version.
