Folly of the Week – Rule the World

Each Friday, Andrew and friends will tell you about something that caught their attention this week – a song, a book, a video game. If you have suggestions for Folly of the Week, send it to us at inpraiseoffolly@gmail.com.


Walk Off the Earth formed in 2006 and took to the internet with inventive covers of popular songs – there have been 166 million views of their cover of Gotye’s Somebody That I Used to Know, which features all 5 members of the group playing a single guitar.

Luckily for us, they didn’t stop there; they used their internet fame to catapult the production of their own music. Their new album, Sing It All Away, drops June 16th, and my favorite song off the album, at least of what’s be released so far, is Rule the World. Check the music video out below and let me know what you think.
