Couldn't we all use just a little more Britney?

I am convinced the universe knows the DMD household could use a little good cheer these days.

How else to explain the uncanny convergence of my current favorite band with not one, but two (listen to the bridge!) of Graham's all-time favorite songs, which were recorded more than 40 years apart?

I discovered this video on Youtube a few days ago and Graham and I have watched it non-stop ever since: I take it as a clear sign that someone or something out there is determined to put a smile on my face.

Hope it does the same for you...

LOL! I haven't heard the "original" but I can guess... that was fun. I loved the bridge.

Any song that can kick it with an accordian has got to be good, and this fits that bill!

Heather said...

Ha ha! That is great!

I have been a fan of this band for along time. That bumps them into my hall of fame. I love their choice of instruments.

Anonymous said...

That was spectacular. I love their creative use of instruments to recreate the music from the Spears song. The mini accordion (do those have a name?) and the beer bottles? yay. Thanks for sharing it - it's going on my list of great cover songs.

Womanizer is one of Grahams favourite songs? Ha!

It's Britney's redeeming factor: that she spawns all kinds of creative remixes of her -- and I cringe saying this -- music.

Mark Ronson's version of "Toxic" is F-U-N.
