Four Chords = Hit Song from the Axis of Awesome
February 28th, 2009I’m sure I’ve heard stuff from Sydney musical comedy trio Axis of Awesome before, but I didn’t have a name to put to their work. Now I do. I really enjoyed going through all these songs, they’ve included a great representation of Oceanic (notice that I don’t just go and blurt out “Australian” there because there are New Zealanders in there too! We shouldn’t be taking credit for your stuff, guys!) and overseas hits.
Richard Marx’s Right Here Waiting is in there! And Take On Me! Squeee!
