ROFLMAO! But really, I like Asian music too, but really [Image: lol.gif]
I wouldn't be a Deep Purple fan if I have heard this version first [Image: rolleye.gif] But I guess they do have a special relationship to that song.

You can find a lot of parodies like that. On Youtube there's a band of ukulele players performing Smells Like Teen Spirit and other crazy stuff. smile

I am a fan of covers of other people's music. That one is quite amazing. In this case, though, I am liking it only for the novelty, not because I would prefer it.

Thanks, cb !

P.S. On a somewhat related note, I was thoroughly tickled the other day to hear a new version of our national anthem. The schools play it every morning, and for years there the kids' school had a military band version of it, which, while nice enough, was boring. A new principal purchased a cd of a variety of versions and the other day I was treated to O Canada on acoustic guitar. thumbsup

As part of their 'cheer Aunt Shadow up' campaign, they introduced me to the work of the Leningrad Cowboys. [Image: guitar.gif]

I reckon their version of Smoke on the Water is worthy of mentioning in this thread, although I am much more impressed with their cover of Sweet Home Alabama, with the Red Army Choir backing them up. [Image: thumbsup.gif]

It's a classic cover. Glad they are working hard to cheer you up.

I am still a fan of covers...

I got to hear this one on the weekend, courtesy of one of the sons' friends.

Yes, I do love reggae. [Image: neenerneener.gif] I loved this. Their version of Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' is wonderful too. jive

I am sorry; I thought that I was linking straight to the youtube 'teaser' for the album/cd and failed to notice that the link (given to me by my son) was via his facebook. duh
