  • Friends Electric on Uke just rocks my boat. Powerful interpretation guys.

  • bloody good

  • I´ve never heard the original song (I came to Gus videos because I´m a long time REGGAE&SKA fan) when I first saw this. It´s incredible, and totally EPIC on 1:25 min.

    If you accept suggestions, how about a Toots and The Maytals or D. Dekker cover? Thanks.

  • Haha, was just wandering around YouTube, decided toi listen to Are Friends Electric, and found this ... brilliant!

    :)

  • LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

  • geile Performance!

  • This is awesome.

  • That was cool man

  • I know this was done in 2006, but I frickin' love it! You two really need to get you some time in a recording studio and do some tracks. Covers, originals. I don't care, just make some Vinyl (CDs for these modern critters, lol) and put them out there. I'd buy a copy or two in a heart beat! Amazing cover, just simply amazing!

  • @prodigyofpeace1983

    Why would it matter that this was done in 2006? Don't say you're one of those 'modern critters' after all? But deffo agree on their need to record and tour mucho and pronto.

  • @gritstoner It was in response to the fact they said it was new one and I just caught it 4 years later, that's all. I hate modern music. Most of it sucks and is extremely unappealing.

  • outstanding!, blew me away.....

  • that was fantastic

  • Awesome, just awesome.

  • i can see thin being on x-factor,,, well done,, gr8 fun

  • excellent lads well done cracking.....

  • The best yet without doubt! Outstanding chaps!

  • I'm actually quite surprised at how good that was.....

  • Oh my fuckin days that was ridiculously good!!

  • I love that song too and you kicked it in the ass

  • Thanks guys an excellent cover. Keep it up.

  • "A" for Awesome!

  • Smile all over my face.. THX nice tunes

  • What is the name of the synth with the joystick I am interested in it and need to know what it is called please.

  • @shadowsofvibrate That is a Red Sound Dark Star (XP2). A digital synth from the late 90's. Isn't that expensive these days cause it sound's well not that great in compairson to later builded VA-Synths.

    Anyway...Great Cover! That was fun!

  • hahaha that is amazing. i love it :)

  • lol, this is great!! Also luv the ukulele, Sheena is a punk rocker!! I wanna get high with you guys, heh =0)~

  • great!

  • im your fan from argentina juajuajuajuaaaaaaa amazing

  • It's still Great! :)

  • It's been in my favorites for a couple years now. It's great to revisit it. :)

    It's so personal that I feel I'm there. It reminds me of some of my own close-quarters recording moments. Good stuff! :)

  • BAHAHAHA!!!! BEST!

  • its hard to cover good music but you guys did a great job. ps: can i have that reel to reel machine?

  • love this new direction! inspires me, but the keyboard does sound better than my kazoo..

  • I'm the uke playing wife of Gary's original lighting designer.....you guys are wonderful. It was hearing you two that made me pick up the uke in the first place.

  • este video es lo maximo are friends electric con ukulele y sintesiser

  • I am amazed by the way you took this completely alienated song--one of my favorite songs--and made it warm and fun. It's not just the ukuleles--it's also the irrepressible warmth of your vocals. You guys are obviously having a good time, and it's infectious. Thanks.

  • Wow that made my day actually :P

  • A!! Freekin Plus Guys..Love it

  • Hey are you guys the replacement members for the backline of Devo? Ukuleles in industrial rock....totally brilliant innovation.

  • Fantastic and hilarious (in a good way) Loved it!!! lol

  • Guys this is awesome. I love all of your ukulele vids, but this is my favorite. Mixing Tubeway Army with an instrument championed by George Formby shouldn't work, but by god you've made it possible!

  • just awesome.

  • Man u guy's ROCK
