TikTokers Are Mashing Up Songs With Mr Brightside & It’s The Best Thing Since Jack Riewoldt

mr brightside tiktok

You know what’s an absolute banger of a track? Mr Brightside by The Killers. It’s been immortalised in a Like A Version, Jack Riewoldt busted it out after the AFL grand final, and I reckon you’d struggle to find anyone over the age of 18 who hasn’t sung it after five-too-many beers at a karaoke bar with their mates.

It’s a classic.

And do you know what? I reckon every other song would be better if it were more like the iconic The Killers track. So, you can imagine my sheer delight when I found this TikTok trend that does just that.

As luck would have it, almost every song can be mashed up with the hit song for a truly *chefs kiss* cover.

Don’t believe me? Well check it out for yourself.

First up we’ve got Nicki Minaj’s banger Super Bass, but it’s Mr Brightside.

We’ve also got I Kissed A Girl x Mr Brightside, which I’m going to call “I Kissed Mr Brightside” or “It Started Out With I Kissed A Girl.”

Or, we can experience the best thing to happen to Rihanna’s Umbrella since Tom Holland.

If that wasn’t enough, we’ve also got the early 00s bop Sk8r Boi-turned-Mr Brightside.

Or if you’re a slightly-newer-but-still-ancient Taylor Swift fan, you can also bust a move to this You Belong With Me cover.

Somebody needs to alert Jack Riewoldt to this trend immediately. I demand that he dubs this with his own rendition of the OG track. Make it happen, people!
