While there isn’t very much to laugh about when it comes to extremist group Daesh (Arabic acronym for ISIS), at least there’s this piss-take Twitter account, which found a way to use lyrics from the Bee Gees and Madonna among many others to truly ridicule the group.

ISIS Karaoke has managed to troll Daesh by taking screenshots from propaganda videos accompanied with heartfelt lyrics, replacing fatwas with funky lines. The extremist group will definitely be Losing My Religion – as R.E.M. would say.

The genius account, which was started on August 16, now has over 18 thousand followers and even features the likes of Daesh’s very own Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi singing the lyrics of Madge’s Like a Prayer. 

Who knew Daesh extremists were such natural pop divas?
