[QUOTE=Brainiac4] Damn, those are awesome! [/QUOTE] Check out the other ones there too. They are all equally hilarious.

British dopers will be familiar with the Sunday evening TV programme _Songs of Praise_, and in particular the joyous hymns sung by the choir and congregation. With the wonder of subtitles, we can see what they’re [really singing](http://www.boreme.com/boreme/funny-2007/songs-of-praise-subtitles-p1.php). ---

Required info: Mini Moni was a Japanese girl group — actually a subgroup of Morning Musume — comprised of girls who were less than 150cm tall (just a hair under 5 feet). In fact, Mari Yaguchi, the leader of Mini Moni, is now 24 years old and still only 4’ 9" tall! Anyway, Mini Moni had their own TV variety show. Some wag has stitched together various clips from that show and set the whole thing to music. I present Mini Moni Moni. ---
