Unrecognizable/strange 'Throw Your Arms Around Me', covers, you say?

Now you might be tempted to dismiss this as just a dumb parody act but they've actually been touring festivals all around Australia for at least 10 years now. I'd completely forgotten about them until I saw a post about one of their upcoming gigs in my neighbourhood

More along the lines of unexpected cover. The Carpenters did a bit from Dead Man's Curve.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzidWCEOFTA

They do nothing at all different with it except cut out a verse. It's just so bizarre this happened. They also did a partial cover of Fun, Fun, Fun with Richard trying to do both Mike Love and Brian Wilson. Karen has nothing to do in either cover, making them further worthless as who cares about Richard's voice?

That was really good.

I think white people doing instrumental covers of hip-hop tracks can be problematic but they are a guilty pleasure.

To be fair, Golden Brown mined a lot from the same seam as Take Five in the first place.

The guy who mixed together that fake cover (and played sax on it) posted an update a year afterwards, it blew up pretty big and got played on a bunch of radio stations and he actually got it pressed on vinyl and that hit #24 on the vinyl singles chart. Also Youtube demonetized his video and sent all the $$$$ to Dave Greenfield's estate which he was genuinely happy about

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAlzyKfo78Y


The B-side to the vinyl was a jazz cover of Walking On The Moon

They released an entire album of Star Wars Xmas songs in 1980, which allegedly featured Jon Bon Jovi's first professional recording session, his uncle owned the studio and he was working sweeping floors there at the time and got to sing the lead vocals on "R2-D2 We Wish You a Merry Christmas."
