How many Canadians does it take to play a guitar? Yep - all 5 are all playing the same guitar at once!

Last year Gotye released the song "Somebody that I used to know" which was awesome and is widly expected to take out the Tripple J's Hottest 100 which airs on Australia Day. It's an awesome song, which has managed to cross over from the indi scene to the mainstream - which is great, because it means that my mainstream friends can finally get to hear some good music for once.

Gotye had a pretty epic video himself (http://youtu.be/8UVNT4wvIGY) but this post is actually about a cover of the song.

A Canadian bank called "Walk Off The Earth" have released an absolutely epic cover. As mentioned above, they are all playing the same guitar!

If you like the original, you'll love this. And if you havent heard the original - give them both a whirl. Far better than the Lady Gaga rubbish that ends up on the mainstream radio most of the time.

The guy on the right didn't get to do much, and the guy on the left is only technically playing the guitar, but definitely an awesome video and an awesome song. It absolutely owned the ARIAs - took out like 3 I think.
