Well I loved it. And I don't think he's a mediocre vocalist. He really has a great voice and fantastic mic control.

Also, the way he did this one, cutting back and forth was really a revelation. Now that "She knows" line actually makes sense to me. *promote

I like Puddles, but really he's a mediocre vocalist and the performance aspect, which is what he is most skilled at and what I liked, seems to be losing it's appeal. Maybe it's just the novelty wearing off.

I'm guessing probably due to the album it's a part of - there's usually a few 'strong' words in them.

@eric3579 Yea agreed, the original is probably unbeatable - it's especially amazing considering it's a guitar and a couple of blokes - they didn't have all the fancy technology and producing we have access to these days.

What's a bit weird for me, is how the cover has one vocalist but it doesn't seem to diminish the feeling. I mean the original version is so great because of how their voices combine. It must have been quite difficult to reproduce that element of the song in such a different way.

Loved it. Especially the unique sound of the vocalists.

Approaching 5 million hits on YouTube. *quality



More from an interview of Ladybeard by Forbes:

Forbes: How old are you?

Ladybeard: I’m five years old. I’m a five-year-old Japanese girl mysteriously from Australia with the appearance of an older Australian man. But Ladybeard is a five-year-old.

Forbes: How the idea of Ladybaby come about?

Ladybeard: The sponsoring company, Clearstone, is a costume maker in Japan. I had been on the cover of Metropolis, which is Japan’s biggest English-language street magazine. The CEO of Clearstone was getting off a plane at the airport and saw me on the cover, flexing in a bikini. He doesn’t speak English so he can’t read the article, but he shows the magazine to his staff, and I just happen to know some people on his staff. So they told him who I was, and he said, “Get him in for a meeting!”
So we go for this meeting, we have no idea what it’s about, and he says, “I really want to do this thing with you. I’ve got these two girls, and I want to put you in a [music] group with them. It’ll be like Babymetal except you’ll be in it. And it’ll be awesome!” That’s how Ladybaby happened.

For the unaware, the lyricist and vocalist is Steve Lee, brother of Bobby Lee, comedian (formerly of Mad TV). The group is called Mangchi, which means Hammer in Korean.

The music is by Money Mark of Beastie Boys (among many others) fame.

David Choe, hundred-millionaire artist, forged this group in the fires of Mordor upon learning of Steve's talent for writing and rapping.

Steve believes there are lizard people in some other astral plane or whatever. And that's what this song is about.

Check out the album because there are actually several awesome songs that I really like and all in very different formats: http:///mangchi.com

I always love covers that completely mix-up the feel / genre of a song, so this was great.

And I enjoy that guitar dude's stuff, in spite (or because?) of his ever-present shit-eating grin while he's playing! The vocalist has some nice chops too, really cool to hear him transition from the low note on the first "taaaake" to the octave-higher-than-usual peak of "twooooo" shortly later.

Nice cover, nice sift!

Just as a dissenting opinion, I have to say I'm really not a fan of Peart. Yeah, he's an incredible technician, but for me he lacks the groove of Bonham or Buddy Rich.

OTOH, Rushs music bores me to tears (I hate that vocalist) so maybe I'd enjoy him more with a different band.

holy crap, love this song but wow, I got shivers all up and down my spine when the vocalist started, amazing stuff.

That was epic. Well done to all involved.

The vocalist had a great voice, not sure if it was right for this song, but definitely will develop with age. Didn't really think the piano added much and it's not a song that lets the guitarists shine, but they played well. The bassist owned the hell out of it... but let's be honest, the drummer was the star. He absolutely nailed it.

Yeah, that's lip-synching for sure. Anyone with half a brain can tell who the actual vocalist is.... cookie monster, of course.

Rockin' youngsters honin' their chops on the streets-Garage is making a move again-we need a douche after the last 20 years of rap, shit-pop, and indie-I'm tired of hipster's music as well, I'm with Eric Cartman on that one....sorry oritteropo

More destroy the machine vocalists and raw, primal tones-More live music with mixed instrumentation as well-Return to roots

Pyoinngggg!☻

Why is that bassist wearin' a glove??

aaaand, the vocalist could totally pull-off an Amy Winehouse cover act...Love her mouth, sooooo sensual!
