Nothing a long bath and some time away won't help. You're nuts. And that's good.

I know all of the original songs & I think I like your versions better! My favorites are, of course, "My Menstruental Friend" & "Turning Siamese" but I really love them all! I think my favorite part was when Pippin screwed up the lyrics - "fockin' hell!" Ah, those Aussies! So expressive!

I'd say letter "b" was my favorite of the three... possibly because it was the only one I actually know the original tune to. And i liked pippin's scat singing and singing in general even though i don't think he could get a recording deall on vocal talent he still sings better than i do.

Claude: maybe "Brit Lite".... ;-)
wandlimb: after dozens of takes, 'pubic hair' had as much relevance as 'ham sandwich'...

A fine, fine effort, you two. Although, I can't believe you sang "pubic hair" with a straight face. Well, it sounded as if you sang it with a straight face...

Great stuff you two. You know, when I first showed up at AmiRight my impression was that you were a British couple for some reason (although my suspicions about gender were correct). Thanks for the revelation, very good job with the recordings (esp. Folding Chair--that Rick kicks ass, don't he?) and keep up the good work.

Thanks indygent! I think! "Lacks in singing talent"? Where? Hard thing to do, even when you don't have an audience. There is nothing like a microphone to hear all the imperfections that your own ears can't!

Well, that was me in the background on "Folding Chair" - but not Flamingos... I didn't realize the discussion board was for all songs together... ooops!

Thanks for your input, J.C.; glad you enjoyed it! Except that wasn't me in the background - that was the record playing...! :-D

I think Pip's singing could use a little fine tuning. But what he lacks in singing talent, he makes up for in witty sarcasm and humour. Nice back-up vocals by Merry, too.
Just listened to "Hens" for SOTM. Hilarious; loved the quick switch to "background vocals". Well done.
