Adele Collides With Higgs Boson in Nerdy Cover [VIDEO]

Have you ever wished someone would explain particle physics to you with help from the sweet sounds of Adele? Look no further.

"Rolling in the Higgs," a parody of the Adele hit "Rolling in the Deep," is the first video posted to a new YouTube channel called A Capella Science.

The creator, Tim Blais, is a self-professed harmony addict who is currently working on a master's degree in theoretical physics. On his Facebook page, Blais describes the venture as “an educational and utterly nerdy online video project.”

The cover is chock full of informative lyrics, such as:

There's a collider under Geneva

Reaching new energies that we've never achieved before

Finally we can see with this machine

A brand new data peak at 125 GeV

See how gluons and vector bosons fuse

Muons and gamma rays emerge from something new

There's a collider under Geneva

Making one particle that we've never seen before.

In the channel's description, Blais notes his background, and asks: "What ELSE was I going to make a YouTube channel about?"

Touché.
