Eytan and The Embassy – “Everything Changes” The World Record Setting Music Video

The catchy new music video from Eytan and The Embassy has set a world record for the most costume changes in a video without any edits. Watch as he turns into 18 famous musicians from throughout the history of 20th century pop culture.

The video started going viral as soon as Neil Patrick Harris started tweeting about it.. and for good reason. Not only is it a good song, but it is really impressive costume work. Sure, he doesn’t look exactly like all the singers he’s portraying, but any video where the guy goes from Weird Al to The guy from Green Day to The Beastie Boys and then to Lady Gaga and finally Deadamaus deserves some credit.

I expect that there will be some pretty good parodies of this within the next week or so.

LYRICS

How do you stand up straight in a world that puts you down?
And how much longer will this ship stay on the ground?
Look at the mirror and you’re starting to fear that the best of years have gone by
that you’re never climbing higher

Well if you’re tired of being yourself
Go on and be somebody else
As long as the stars are burning
The world keeps turning you know…
that everything changes

How do you know what’s of this earth and what’s divine?
And if the point of life is creation then why are we wasting our time…
Looking around to discover ourselves like it’s some fixed point you can find?
You can start to lose your mind

But if you’re tired of being yourself
Go on and be somebody else
As long as the stars are burning
The world keeps turning you know…
That if you’re tired of being yourself
Go on and be somebody else
Take all the rules and break em
Your plans and remake em cause you know
Everything changes

Are you ready to quit?
Are you out? Is this it?
Well we all take a hit but we keep on fighting

How did you end up in this place for so long?
And what ever made you think that this is where you belong?
Walking the streets like a dog that’s been beat cause you just can’t sleep tonight
Will you ever get it right?

Well if you’re tired of being yourself
Go on and be somebody else
As long as the stars are burning
The world keeps turning you know…
That if you’re tired of being yourself
Go on and be somebody else
Take all the rules and break em
Your plans and remake em cause you know
Everything changes
