Ozzy + Beach Boys Mashup Could Be the Ultimate Goth Summer Anthem

Ozzy Osbourne and the Beach Boys come together in a recent mashup from can’t-miss remixer DJ Cummerbund. Titled “Mama, I’m Fun, Fun, Fun,” the creation takes Ozzy’s 1991 classic “Mama, I’m Coming Home” and mixes it with the Beach Boys’ sunny 1964 number “Fun, Fun, Fun.”

OK, that might not sound appealing on paper. Yet, somehow, the groovy vibe of the hard rocker combined with the poppy car song could quite possibly make it the goth surf anthem of the summer. Probably because of DJ Cummerbund’s sonic contributions that effortlessly adhere the two together.

Listen to mashup down toward the bottom of this post.

At this point, Cummerbund practically needs no introduction — the mix master’s talent has just become a given of the internet. In the past, the DJ has made mashups of Disturbed and Stevie Wonder, Tool and Justin Bieber, Foo Fighters and Rick James, Marilyn Manson and Shania TwainKorn and Cher, and plenty of other combinations that could make a music fan stand up and take note.

But perhaps none can instill the same kind of summertime warmth that oozes forth in this inventive Ozzy Osbourne and Beach Boys mashup. It’s as if Ozzy grew up a surfer, or perhaps if Brian Wilson had become a metalhead instead of a chamber pop master. Either way, the alternate music universe one can imagine when listening certainly makes for some thought-provoking entertainment.

True to the DJ’s MO, there are also clips of Hulk Hogan, Randy “Macho Man” Savage and Shrek hidden throughout the song. Ozzy’s vocal intro from “Crazy Train” is also sprinkled throughout.
