Back during Pottermania there was a small avalanche of fan-made Harry musicals. One of which was We R Slytherins. It was based off a Ke$ha song and in addition to the clever tune had some pretty impressive graphics.
It’s half a year later and the two lead singers are back with a new Harry Potter song. This time it’s all about sex – well, about afterwards, the “walk of shame” back from his room all the way to your dorm.
Interestingly, they seem to be making a go at this and have formed Not Literally as a production company. You can Facebook Like here. We’ll have to see whether Harry Potter ideas is all they have or whether they can branch out.
The Walk of Shame is a very different video from We R Slytherins. The special effects are subtle but watch to the end and you’ll see some of the green screen action. Most of all; it’s up to Ginny and Dana to carry off the tune. It’s a parody of Simon and Garfunkel’s famous “Sound of Silence” and there’s no hiding behind the music in this one.
