Not a fan of this. Especially the tuneless percussive bits.
and the original is already boring and repetitive. this is not an improvement
Much better than Jon Batiste's tin-eared repurposing of Beethoven.
Ack! I’m having a flashback to Walter Murphy and A Fifth of Beethoven. I wish THAT song had stayed buried in the 70s.
That’s not fair to Olusola because this is actually kind of a fun tune.

I just heard a piece yesterday on NPR about this guy. Multi-talented!
For you doubters, he's introducing classical music to younger people, who then might be interested enough to listen to the originals.

SURE - why not?! Good for him.
I guess I still have to work on my open-mindedness. Best I could manage was not to skip.
Sounds like a soundtrack to a multigenre film.
For now, I'll stick with Wendy Carlos : ) And Jon Batiste!

I'm glad my appreciation for music is not so pure or narrow to prevent me from enjoying casaual, fun and different songs.
