Good mash-ups really add something to the two songs being woven together so that they sound like they were made as one song. I especially like it when two different genres and eras can be brought together in creative ways that don't suck. I particularly like when the whole song is sampled and the choruses of both are incorporated. What are some of your favorites?

I really like:

Christina Aguilera and Dead or Alive: Ain't No Other Man versus You Spin Me Round

Ting Tings and Toni Basil and The Knack: That's Not My Name versus My Sharona versus Mickey (I love how it gets lyrical in the middle)

The Monkees and Girls Aloud: Last Train to Clarkesville versus Love Machine

The White Stripes and Eurythmics: Sweet Dreams versus Seven Nation Army

There are mash up videos by Dalida & Raffaella Carra I like; but the emphasis is visually blending a song to their dancing as opposed to merging two separate works.
