Think “Noises Off” meets “Monty Python” meets “A Prairie Home Companion” meets “Bullets Over Broadway” meets ““The Wizard of Oz” meets “Transformers 7: Revenge of the Automatrons” meets “Yes, Virginia!

The new song is a 100% charity-driven effort, with proceeds going to support millions of children who have lost healthy meals due to school closures nationwide. “We created this to bring levity and fun to a serious subject, but to also remind people that now is the time to think of others before ourselves.

We’re asking everyone to share this video to spread the word and hopefully slow down the spread of coronavirus.” The QUARANTINE SONG was kickstarted by the launch of Hollens’ latest video, which parodies global superstars, including Lady Gaga, Adele, Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber, Dua Lipa and more with a special guest appearance by Tay Zonday parodying his song “Chocolate Rain” and Evynne Hollens in a singalong encouraging viewers to stay home and practice social distancing when going out.

  • Thanks to the Internet, We Now Have the Chance to Discover Talents We Would Not Have Heard on Television
    Thanks to the Internet, we now have the chance to discover talents we would not have heard on television. This is the case of Taylor Davis, a 27 years old american violonist. One album after the other since 2012, she has released an album entitled "Melodies of Hyrule" in November 2013. Some clips of this album, like her Song of Time and Song of Storms covers, have been published in the Gazette. While she was preparing to play in San Francisco and Chicago in April, Taylor Davis had the kindness to anwser our questions. Question by Alice Lee & Zemo - Puissance Zelda March 28th 2014 Hi Taylor ! I’m called Alice Lee from Puissance-Zelda, a French website about the Zelda series. We discovered you on our website and forum through a number of our “Gazette de PZ”, in which we shared one of your videos : “Song of Time and Song of Storms”. Many people loved your video, but unfortunately information about you on French websites are quite succinct… You made lots of covers, both from film musics, like “Concerning Hobbits”, and from video games, like “Zelda medley”. Are films and video games your other hobbies? Yes, I love both video games and movies. I have been playing video games for as long as I can remember and gaming has always held a huge place in my heart. I have an older brother who I can credit for getting me interested in playing video games at such a young age :) Beyond video games and movies, I also really enjoy physical activity like weight lifting and tennis, cooking/baking, photography and many other activities! What’s a normal day in Taylor Davis’ life? It always depends on the types of projects I have going on.
