Although Smooth McGroove may look like the kind of guy who’d sacrifice baby animals to the gods of heavy rock, he’s actually a total video game nerd. And not only that, but he’s full of musical talent and shows off his singing skills by uploading acapella arrangements of songs from classic video games that will make you go, “Wow, this takes me back… to last week when I was playing my N64.”

Tom Cruise has just released his new movie Edge Of Tomorrow (Groundhog day meets Aliens), so what better time for Screen Junkies to hop onboard the publicity for that and bring out their brilliant Top Gun take down. They have plenty of fun with this 1980s classic, from the homoeroticism to the cliche-heavy dialogue and the fuck yeah! bro-ness of the characters.

This guy’s just to good, he sounds like he’s swallowed the band Pendulum whole and has them trapped inside his vocal chords. If the band has gone missing recently and their manager is worried about their disappearance then inside this guy might be the first place he would want to look.
