Biffy Clyro's 'Many Of Horror' Gets Notorious B.I.G X Factor Remix

December 20, 2010
Biffy Clyro's 'Many Of Horror' Gets Notorious B.I.G X Factor RemixUnsigned Scottish band The LaFontaines have recorded a mashup of Biffy Clyro's 'Many Of Horror' and Notorious B.I.G.

The track, entitled 'Biggy Clyro (Money Of Horror)', includes several references to X Factor winner Matt Cardle.

The 27-year-old took the Christmas number one spot with his cover of the song, retitled 'When We Collide', despite a Facebook campaign from Biffy Clyro fans.

The LaFontaines have posted the song on YouTube – and you can watch it below now.

The band said the song depicted “what would happen if Biffy Clyro sold out and became famous pimps”.

As previously reported, fans of Biffy Clyro fans had hoped to make 'Many Of Horror' number one instead, but it lost out to Cardle's effort.
