What do they have in common you ask? IMO the greatest tv show ever and best movie ever of the 80's. But this band called "No More Kings" loves the Karate Kid and Knight Rider so much they made songs about them. There first video is called "Sweep The Leg" which is cool cause it has Johhny and all the cobra dudes in the video being old laying around watching TKK movie when all the sudden it's back fighting but with a twist. It's 7 Minutes long but the ending is awesome with Daniel back in action with a car (you'll know what I mean when you see it). But you have to watch that first to enjoy the Kitt to Michael song. It's about jumping into Kitt and they go and "Save the world". It's so cool cause it's a song from Kitts perspective. The video kinda sucks but the song rocks. Check it out and let me know what you think of "Michael (Jump In)" or "Sweep the Leg".

Awsome I saw these guys live once and I heard Sweep the Leg but not Jump In this song just adds to the different areas KR has explored.

I know what you mean, and the beginning with the pictures of the intro look so cool cartoon style.

Very nice, thanks for sharing, MIKEMAC. I enjoyed the "Michael (Jump In)" song a lot more not even for the Knight Rider references, but because it's a great song by itself. There's even parts of "Sweep the Leg" that sound similar to the original theme song, too. The singer sounds like the singer of Maroon 5. Oh, and it was cool how they threw Thomas Magnum in the second video, too. I think I'll check out some more of their music. :)
