The Muppets Do Kanye West's "Monster" -- Again [VIDEO]

I know, I know, we posted a video to this effect yesterday, but the above vid is truly worth a mention. Created by a dedicated (and perhaps foolhardy) team at content creation site The Galaxy World, this is Muppified "Monster" as it was meant to be (whatever that means).

Note: As always with this song, this video has NSFW language.

According to Michael DiSalvo, the team's "ideas man," the video's crew -- which includes designer Michael Deal (of "Charting the Beatles" fame) and video editor Tim Heintzelman (who edits video for the Boston Red Sox) -- came up with the concept weeks ago.

"The original idea was born out of our failure to produce a video of a man in a bee costume dancing to the Black Eyed Peas' 'Imma Be,'" DiSalvo says. "We like to think of it as our redemption."

"The team spent hours pouring over Muppet movies and YouTube clips and tried to find anything that presented the Muppets in their true, rough nature," DiSalvo adds. "Naturally, we take things very literally, especially Kanye lyrics, because it is pretty obvious that he is a very literal and realistic person."

Footage was taken from The Muppet Christmas Carol, The Muppet Movie, The Muppets Take Manhattan, as well as Sesame Street and The Muppet Show.

The Muppets are pretty famous for covering popular songs in an official capacity, but there's also an odd trend out there among YouTubers when it comes to the creation of unofficial covers -- Lady Gaga's "Telephone" and M.O.P.'s "Ante Up" spring to mind.
