A genius new mashup bringing together Huey Lewis & the News’ “Hip To Be A Square” and Metallica’s "Enter Sandman" has just been unveiled – and it’s awesome! 

Titled, “Hip to Be the Sandman”, the track combines James Hetfield’s vocals from the 1991 Metallica hit with the music of Huey Lewis’ 1986 classic. By some mind-blowing twist of fate, the two tracks match seamlessly. Check it out below.

Incredibly, “Hip to Be the Sandman" has racked up over 300,000 views on YouTube since it was first unveiled yesterday. The super-fun track is the masterful work of YouTuber, Bill McClintock, who's been in the mashup game since 2012.

Previous popular mashups include Eric Clapton and Michael Jackson ("Billie Cocaine”), Black Sabbath and the Temptations (“Get Ready For The Grave”) and Marvin Gaye and Ratt (“I Heard It Round and Round the Grapevine”) – check them all out, here.
