YouTubers worldwide, unite! It's time to get off your couch and...well, stay on your couch and vote for David A. Scott Jr. as the Internet's funniest person.
Scott got his big break when he posted his literal video for Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" online. For those of you who don't know, a literal video is a music video where the original song lyrics have been taken out and replaced with lyrics describing what's going on in the video.
The first-ever literal video was Dusto McNeato's re-doing of "Take on Me," and the concept became a hit among regular YouTubers. But the whole idea of a literal video never fully reached the mainstream.
Then came "dascottjr".
And the rest is history.
Scott's 6th literal video became an instant sensation, earning mention on the sites of the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, NPR, and Time Magazine. The video even spawned a Facebook group. It currently has over 6 million views on YouTube, and Scott isn't done yet: His latest creation, a remake of "Billie Jean," was just released on January 29th.
