"Pinball Wizard" by the Who for Harry Potter, with the slight substitution of Quidditch for pinball.
Two other funny ones, my favorite kind:
Another One Rides the Bus - “Weird Al” Yankovic

Enjoyed those. Thanks.
Very grateful, PhilSC. They have been such fun to make and sharing them is just joy. Spent part of the day putting up a video I made in 1987 from footage a dear friend shot of his new baby. I love how much love can be stuffed in two minutes.
Tommy can you hear me...
I Can See for Miles - for Miles O’Brien in Deep Space 9?
Boris the Spider - for the spider in Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter?
Not everything is about politics, so don’t sweat it. Nice edits, and it fits Quiddich very well. I love classic rock mash-ups and can’t believe how cleverly some are able to edit not just the audio but the video to create a hybrid that never existed before. Good job!
Thanks, bigbob. I truly appreciate your kindness. I love classic rock. When I was making videos for the IBM VP, he would let me learn stuff by going to an editing studio for my opening, or hiring a steadicam operator, or some such. I was amazed by what they were able to do by layering, something I never had the capacity for in the IBM studio my husband built. I taught almost a generation of fanvid makers to make these and I was always tough on the students to be precise in their edits. Drove them crazy at the time, but I think they appreciated the good habits later. My brother, by the way, is 6’4” and large, also Bob, so another one who shops at Big and Tall.
That’s because I was running out of quiddich scenes so cut one of the long music bridges out. Usually I’d use a music bridge to set or continue a theme, but the theme had been pretty well ground into the dirt by the time the bridge came along.
