DISASTERPIECE

The Fever Dream 'Let it Be' Video


Listen Later

In 1970, The Beatles released their final-and worst-studio album, Let It Be. Since then, its underwhelming title track has become associated with charity events, social causes, drunk boomer sing-alongs, and is probably the favorite song of the cringiest person you know.

But in 2010, the Norwegian travel show Gylne Tider pulled off the impossible by making the song actually entertaining for the first time. With the help of over two dozen celebrities from the ’80s and ’90s, and a cheap-to-license version of the song intended to raise money following a ferry disaster, the show unintentionally created one of the weirdest videos on YouTube.

From Jason Alexander to Ireland’s very own Boyzone, no one on the “Let It B-List” was left out of this baffling piece of advertising.
