Please rate, comment and subscribe etc to my utube. My old one MusicNewZealand was thriving and had constant comments daily.

A Beatles rip off band doing a Non beatles song. Extremely good I must say:

I can only find the later version, it's not as good as the earlier version, which is faster, better singing, and more tight:
The Beachnuts - I've Got A Tiger In My Tanks (earlier version by The Intimates).

Lou Reed (as The Beechnuts) - Cycle Annie:

A happy song, sort of a mix of B-52's and The Mamas and the papas even though the b-52's were still 10 years away:

Is it so wrong that the bassline for this song sounds like Joy Division (post-punk) to me? And the lyrics sound like 1970's punk?

...I can't see the links , but raay! , just for this subject !

For "oldies" music my favorites would include Run Around Sue by Dion and the Belmonts:

Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison:

Also Runaway and The Wanderer, both by Del Shannon, as well as The Lion Sleeps Tonight by the Tokens, and pretty much anything by Buddy Holly:

Here's a parody I did of a famous Beatles song. I wrote the title pun and second verse more than twenty years ago and only came up with the first and third verses earlier this year. Then I figured out the lead guitar part to complete this song. My parody lyrics sound very close to the original Beatles lyrics, but with a twist!

Gilbert K. Chesterton once said "The poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese." I decided to try to remedy this unfortunate situation. My parody lyrics are about a woman at a buffet who likes the cheese. The title pun is a spoonerism of the original song title (where the first letters of two words are switched), so from Day Tripper I got Tray Dipper and the rest followed.
