The catchiest, earwormiest song on the airwaves today is from Melbourne's Gotye, pronounced Gaultier (heh). His Making Mirrors album sports the infectious "Somebody That I Used to Know," apparently "feat-ing" a singer named Kimbra.
Now--in a visually compelling group-grope of a single guitar, the band Walk Off the Earth has covered the tune. My vote for best viral video of 2012.
So, do it: Watch Walk Off the Earth's cover.
PS - That pronunciation guide is like a dictionary entry that says "Gotye: Of or relating to Gotye-like stuff." Oh, and Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" itself is something you've got to get to know; now playing on iTunes.
