Dtube Exclusive - Hey Goldmember by Beyonce / from Austin Powers (Piano Cover)
Yeah, Baby! Today I am doing a cover in honor of my new friend @goldmatters! He has been doing an awesome post series leading up to valentine's day and yesterday he posted a SUPER fun article of him walking through a wax museum and posing with different "celebrities" from Taylor Swift to Benjamin Franklin sporting his Gold Matters swag. In this post he pointed out a couple songs that are all about gold!
I highly recommend checking out the post... Golden Slumbers Fill Your Eyes.
The song choices varied from the Beatles, to Elvis Presley... to yes, Goldmember from Austin Powers. He offered to send me a Gold Matters t-shirt If I covered one of those songs, and I just couldn't pass up that opportunity!
Do you want to hear something crazy? I literally might be the first person EVER to do a cover version of this song. I was trying to find one for inspiration and scoured all over YouTube without success. Mighta found my niche here people... ;)
I also could not find music for it anywhere, and so I improvised! Turns out the basic structure of this song is founded on "Shake Shake Shake" by KC and the Sunshine Band, and so I was able to use their music to help guide this cover!
I hope you guys enjoy my version of this Beyonce song! Oh and the gold glitter face paint.
Also, for those who are interested- here's the scene from the movie. God... Queen Bey never disappoints.

OMG. I can’t even talk. SO EPIC!!!
I’m so thrilled that you enjoyed it! I had a LOT of fun making this cover too... if you can’t tell. 😉 I love it when fun projects like this organically spring up from good conversation!
Watched it a second time. Still just as excited. You even used #steemsilvergold! Those guys are going to love this
Simply amazing! Please keep bringing us more, we would greatly appreciate it!
Well done! It's nice to see you on my favorite hashtag, #steemsilvergold. We need to make #swingdance a thing...though there would be like 3 people using that tag.
Haha so true! We are definitely a small crowd here on Steemit. Glad you enjoyed my crazy cover. 😆 I couldn’t pass up the opportunity for an awesome free shirt from gold matters!
That was incredible you are amazing! :-)
Your so cute ;)
Thanks sis!! I should probably feel embarrassed about posting such crazy videos, but who cares? 😆
No, okay. Leave a bit of coolness for the rest of us!
I still can't believe you did what you did. I am still floored.
Great abs workout. You made my day!
Hahah glad to hear you got your workout in for the day. 😆
Yea, i mean. I'd gladly substitute my sit-ups reps with watching more funny covers! You should totally do more of this kind of stuff. Maybe Dr. Evil & Mini Me rap parts? or even from other movies, i don't know! Take this as an official request that you can't back off from.
PS: Situps are a lie. Wake up people!
I will work on more funny covers so you don’t miss out on your exercise! 😜 not sure if I can pull off for Dr. evil and mini me look, that’s a fun idea!! I am always open to suggestions of things to cover!
Oh! This is great.. THE POWER OF PASSION, i spend a lot of time trying to figure out what makes people successful in their doings, and more than anything else, passion is what makes the difference. You are doing great@coruscate
Thanks for your kind words @warudo! I think you said it perfectly, if you are passionate about what you are doing, others are more likely to enjoy what you’re putting out into the world as well!
"Are those frickin sharks with frickin laser beams attached to their heads?"
Its been a very long time haha. Loving the throwback though!
Hahah YES!! Great play on the post. Glad you enjoyed the cover! Sometimes you just gotta have fun and get a little crazy. 😆
You know what really is gold, baby? Your voice. <3 ;) ^^
Hahah love it!
