Around the World

A Daft Punk piano cover by Maxence Cyrin accompanied by dated visuals of synchronized swimming. 
I don't know which is more striking, the cover or the visuals.
Either way, both are stupidly impressive.


Also check out his Arcade Fire cover of "no cars go." If you haven't heard the original, it's already a good song, but this interpretation by Maxence Cyrin transforms it into a completely different feel and sound... in a tremendously good way. Removing the up beat and the vocals and replacing it with a classic instrument makes it touching, almost.
Encore man.

I put both songs below for comparison. Enjoy.
