   The Austin Lounge Lizards cover of “Brain Damage” from the same album is also worth a listen, if you haven’t heard it before. Again, a familiar song in an unexpected style that’s oddly… catchy.

   Now all we need is the 8-bit “Wizard of Oz” video to go along with it.

   Time is my all-time (haha!) favorite song by Pink Floyd. Unfortunately my employer is blocking whatever app is running the video. Crap.

   I wonder what that would be like synced up to The Wizard of Oz…

   Don’t forget the 8-bit Weezer album, too:

   “Time” as in somebodys got too much of it on their hands.

   My favorite bit is the inclusion of the Mario coin sound at the beginning of “Money”.

   Can they legally do this without including the rest of the album?

    This may be a reason to reconsider public flogging.

    I suddenly feel like playing the world’s most depressing 8 bit RPG for some reason…

    This is awesome!

    Parts sound kinda like Zelda.

    You submitted this to Fark, didn’t you?

    Am I a sick bastard for wanting mp3s?

    Steve @ 14: If you are then so am I; I think this is strangely cool and insanely clever.

    I’m gonna have nightmares about this.

    What the…
    8 bit wrongness. I was enjoying my lunch right up to a couple of minutes ago. Now I feel strangely ill…

    Totally awesome. Downloading the zip file of all the songs now. Love it.

    Dude! You could totally listen to that on mushrooms!

    @15 and @14 It’s neat. I’d like to see a video of this, too. But then, Buhl Planetarium did laser shows to the original Dark Side of the Moon.

    That was strangely unsettling.

    @14: covert it with WinFF…. :-)

    Funny. Although, honestly, back in the late 80s/early 90s, I (and others) were creating 8 bit sound files for the C64 that sounded WAY better than this.

    Sounds like I’d be on an acid trip where my hallucinations are pixelated with pong -blooping- in the background.
