For the last two years Marina Shifrin worked for a boss who placed little value on creativity and content. Naturally, instead of quitting the conventional way, she made a video.

2.136 million views so far.

How d’you like them apples, boss?

choir

After a concert in Wuppertal, Germany, Icelandic folk group ‪Árstíðir‬ stopped by the train station next to the venue (having been told of the building’s remarkable acoustic qualities) for an impromptu performance of the old Icelandic hymn ‘Heyr himna smiður’.

Ambience ensues.

lurgan

The mighty Coláiste Lurgan’s just-released cover of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ ‘Can’t Hold Us’ (complete with bonus Macklemore and Lewis cameo as Gaeilge).

All together now:

Gabhfadh muid ar aghaidh,
Seo’d é an nóiméad
Ná breathnódh muid siar
‘S tabhair faoi go cróga
Caith bhur lámha san aer,
Tá an saol seo romhainne
Tá an saol seo dhúinne

After tending a tiny rabbit they found in their garage for a week, the Gore family return it to the wild.

The wild was most appreciative.

Curse you, Disney.
