When I'm Gone (Carter Family Song)
"When I'm Gone" also commonly known by its longer title "You're Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone", is a popular song written by A. P. Carter and was recorded in 1931 by the Carter Family (not to be confused with their 1928 song "Will You Miss Me When I’m Gone?"). Versions The song was later recorded by J. E. Mainer's Mountaineers and by Charlie Monroe. Adaptations *In 2009, the band Lulu and the Lampshades combined the song "When I'm Gone" with a common children's game known as the cup game, in which cups are tapped and hit on a table to create a distinct rhythm. This created the modern version of the song known as "Cups (When I'm Gone)" or alternately "When I'm Gone (Cups)". *In 2011, Anna Burden uploaded a version of the song on YouTube that went viral. * In 2012, the film '' Pitch Perfect'' included a rendition of the song sung by Anna Kendrick, based on Burden's version.

Cup Game
A cup is an open-top used to hold hot or cold liquids for pouring or drinking; while mainly used for drinking, it also can be used to store solids for pouring (e.g., sugar, flour, grains, salt). Cups may be made of glass, metal, china, clay, wood, stone, polystyrene, plastic, aluminium or other materials, and are usually fixed with a stem, handles, or other adornments. Cups are used for quenching thirst across a wide range of cultures and social classes, and different styles of cups may be used for different liquids or in different situations. Cups of different styles may be used for different types of liquids or other foodstuffs (e.g. teacups and measuring cups), in different situations (e.g. at water stations or in ceremonies and rituals), or for decoration.
