A little late for the fest but for some reason it never came to my mind that I new this one and that it was a Leiber & Stoller tune, in my heart I'm covering The Coasters! I'm kinda glad I didn't try it then since I had no uke, "Ukulele Fate". This is done Live In The Kia Sportage, this Tuesdays Guerrilla recording.
1 track -me with my baritone uke and my plastic kazoo. I made a Kazolder (patent pending), in the vain of those harmonica neck things, to hold my kazoo while playing. Recorded through the on-board mic in the br900.

Actually your song is quite different, but it immediately reminded me of the Clash song.

The only version I might like better than this is Arnold Schwartzenhaggar. If I could play the song, I'd do my impersonation of him. I love the uke'd up version! Is that a Kazoo? Yep, just read it! HAAAA

I so dig this!
