Watch: Michael Jackson’s ‘Billie Jean’ performed on beer bottles. And it’s good

Beer bottles are used for so many valuable things. They’re vessels for your favorite beverage, they can be lined up decoratively in college dorm rooms and apartments, and if you’re in a pinch and really need a rolling pin … voila! A music group calling themselves the Bottle Boys also uses them to make magical music.

But we’re not talking about “Mary Had a Little Lamb” or “Chopsticks.” They chose Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean.” You can watch the guys performing the 1982 classic using what appear to be beer bottles and an empty water jug in the video above.

Each member of the Copenhagen-based group is armed with either a case of bottles or a couple held between their fingers. They blow, shake and air guitar their way through the verses. And they do it all in a church.

The Bottle Boys have also made videos of their renditions of Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe,” Jason Derulo’s “Talk Dirty,” and Taylor Swift’s “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” all created using different shapes and sizes of bottles.

Their latest got a boost with a recent tweet by Ellen DeGeneres, to which the five-man group (better known as Flaskedrengene in Denmark) responded with an “OMG” on Facebook.
