With 130 million views from January of this year alone, I must be the last person to enjoy the lovely talents of this group from Canada. We listened to this on our big system at work and it sounded delightful:

Looks like they are signed up with Columbia records now.

Cool music video. I must have heard the song somewhere, sounds familiar. Never saw 5 pairs of hands on a guitar. Wonderful.

We were commenting about the same thing. Kind of hard to find work for more than one person let alone 4!

FYI the original has 288 *million* views! The scales here are mind boggling. Platinum record? What the heck is that compared to these numbers?

The Key Of Awesome is their name. They have lots of song parodies on youtube.

now if they allowed downloads of their album at a meager $1.00 per, that would be mind boggling

That's the problem with the Internet community. Same consumption is valued a lot less. Hence the trouble for newspapers, etc....
