I was planning on featuring something else here today, but then I listened to the beginning of Whispamon's 10cc link, and went woah! I don't know who recorded that version, but here is the original.
That song has really been in my head the last couple of days because I recently heard an interesting BBC radio documentary about the song.
I don't recommend actually watching it. Visually, its pretty awful. You can completely geek out reading this British recording magazine article if you are so inclined. |

I'm in love with post-punk (The Smiths, Joy Division being 2 of my favorites) but having listened to The Sex Pistols and early Clash, I was never impressed with punk proper. I am completely all over Dead Kennedys though. I loooove this song though, crude (yet strangely elegant) lyrics aside. And I have their first album too, where "Holiday in Cambodia" and "Funland At The Beach" are lovely as well.  |

The sound-quality is awful, but what an amazing song! (Probably better not to closely watch him singing.)
This is something I bought on cassette back in 1993/94 (and I presume it was a little old then). Wish they'd put some of this stuff out on CD. (It's Lebanese, incidentally.) |

I've recently been fascinated by Beardyman videos. He's always so unique. Beatboxing is something I've only found entertaining for a few minutes at a time, but Beardyman makes actual music that I enjoy watching for a while. Sometimes I have to keep reminding myself that everything originated from his mouth.
