If, like me, you lived your teenage years during the pre-YouTube era of online video, let me share a fact that will probably make you feel old: Gary Brolsma is now twice as old as he was when he first released his legendary “Numa Numa” video.
Brolsma rocketed to internet fame in 2004 when he uploaded an exaggerated lip sync set to the song “Dragostea Din Tei” by Moldovan pop group O-Zone.

Back in December 2004, Gary Brolsma posted a video of himself lip-syncing to the Romanian pop song "Numa Numa," and to celebrate the viral video's 10-year anniversary, Gary has posted a new lip-sync video featuring a mashup of songs. He was 19 when he shared his first video, and now Gary brings his best moves and facial expressions to everything from Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off" to Blink-182's "I Miss You" to Katy Perry's "Firework," busting out a performance with some special lighting effects. Along with the new video, he wrote, "Thank you everyone for all the years of awesome! See you again in 10 more years." Watch his lip-sync mashup, above, and then take a trip down memory lane with a look at the original "Numa Numa" video, below.
