That’s probably because most of the songs stick to a pretty specific formula. This video, [created](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJNYxpEAh68&feature=youtu.be) by YouTuber Dion Beary, captures that formula pretty well. We should note that the lack of banjo is pretty disappointing, but otherwise, it’s pretty much perfect. **WATCH:** [Comedians Punk Fans in New Mumford & Sons Music Video](http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/08/05/watch-comedians-punk-fans-in-new-mumford-sons-music-video/) **WATCH:** [How the Banjo Made It Big](http://content.time.com/time/video/player/0,32068,2277805484001%5F2140496,00.html) **MORE:** [Billboard Chart Decoded: Mumford and Sons Triumph](http://entertainment.time.com/2012/10/05/billboard-chart-decoded-the-triumph-of-babel/) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3263295/every-mumford-and-sons-song/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3263295/every-mumford-and-sons-song/"},"headline":"Hilarious Video Shows How Every Mumford and Sons Song Sounds Exactly the Same","datePublished":"2014-09-03T14:16:50.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:12:56.047Z","description":"Nailed it.","url":"https://time.com/3263295/every-mumford-and-sons-song/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Music","viral","Parody"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8c6333127622d685/6986a1c71eebf749393727c0/143062919.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8c6333127622d685/6986a1c71eebf749393727c0/143062919.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Mumford and Sons","caption":"SXSW Concerts","creditText":"Kitra Cahana—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3263295/every-mumford-and-sons-song/","name":"Hilarious Video Shows How Every Mumford and Sons Song Sounds Exactly the Same"}}]}] ```
