3 New ones (not here)
Well, I had 3 new songs posted here, but the post was taken down by Blo gger thanks to everyone's best friend the R-I-A-A, so I made a page with Google Pages to host them: http://sites.google.com/site/hawkinsmashups/. What they took offense to I have no idea, all the content was significantly altered, and with the thousands of pirate blogs set up that legitimately steal sales from the music industry using the same service I use, I don't know why they chose me. Oh well.

Mr. Office Man

That is the best Photoshop job ever and you know it.
Bob Dylan - Mr. Tambourine Man (DIY acapella by ToToM)
+ The Office
+ Percussion by:
Arcade Fire (Neighborhood 2)
Battles (Leyendecker)
Radiohead (Reckoner)
=Mr. Office Man
Dropbox is officially in public beta, so that link you see is a direct one. No more of that Divshare nonsense. I will eventually reup the songs I still like onto Dropbox so you don't have to click through ads for them either.
If you downloaded the song while it had the other picture with it and was on my Google page, you might want to listen again. This one is mixed better and has an intro of sorts.

4 New Ones
After doing nothing for about 4 months, I've got 4 new mashups for you folks. Let's have a look, shall we?
Big Hello

LCD Soundsystem - Big Ideas
Jay Z - Say Hello
The Jay-Z song isn't a single, and the LCD track isn't Daft Punk is Playing at My House, but I think you'll like this one.
All My Zombies

Led Zeppelin - All My Love
Sufjan Stevens - They Are Night Zombies!! They Are Neighbors!! They Have Come Back from the Dead!! Ahhhh!
Originally, "...Zombies!..." was my backing track for my first mashup with Jesus Walks. That is, until I thought to search the web to see if it had been done before. It had, and although it was quite terrible, I'd still have been late to the Sufjan/Kanye party. Fortunately, it also goes with a certain Led Zeppelin track.
For the Widows Standing Nude on the Corner

Sufjan Stevens - For the Widows in Paradise, for the Fatherless in Ypsilanti
Radiohead - Nude
Common - The Corner
I tried to make a Nude remix, but it wasn't happening, and I don't think I could compete with the likes of RAC and Holy Fuck anyway. Still, I had to get my 5 dollars' worth, so here's a Nude mashup, with more Sufjan.
Lastly, a request:
Red Red Love

UB40 - Red Red Wine
Sean Kingston - Me Love
Special thanks to Dan for requesting this and thus motivating me to make some more songs.

Egyptian in the Dark (with cover art even!)

Click above for the DL.
Note on the download: Divshare apparently changed how links to items organized in folders work. So, the download link is on the right like usual, but to hear it in the window, you have to scroll down in the little box they give you.
On to the song!
I was listening to Born in the USA the other day and I noticed how one of the the little synth parts in the background sounds exactly like the "ohhWAYYohh" part from Walk Like an Egyptian. So, I sped up Bruce and slowed down Susanna an arbitrary amount to make them fit, but it felt sort of empty. Lo and behold, the Beastie Boys fit the tempo perfectly. I know they're sometimes overused, but I just listened to Licensed to Ill this weekend, so I'm in a nasally white boy rap mood. Deal with it.
Sources:
Back to the Future Part III: Nobody Calls Me Mad Dog
Bruce Springsteen: Dancing in the Dark
The Bangles: Walk Like an Egyptian
Beastie Boys: So What'cha Want

Jesus Christ Walks (Brand New vs. Kanye West)
Download here.
There's a bit more Brand New than Kanye in this one, but I think it turned out pretty well for my first bootleg.
