After watching all of your videos with my housemates one day, I come back every few days or so just to watch this one. Pretty awesome one-man-band you've got going, it's amazing how much depth a melodica can add to a song.

[madnessuk1]

superb job on the music but you need more work on the singing ;-)

[rbreeman]

Great version of a great song! How about doing it live on stage? ;-)

[DoubleKDoubleK]

He would need to clone himself to do it on stage..

[DRUGMONSTER]

AWESOME!!

[dansumo73]

Amazing rendition!! this is my favouirite all time song. i learnt it on piano (see my vids). Madness would be proud. have you done any more of their songs like this? :o)

[UniQuorn]

I feel like dancing!

*gets up and skanks to your beat*

great stuff

Is it hard to get that rythm on the melodica?

takes a lot of breathing I guess

[logophile]

Thanks man! I really appreciate that. I only wish I could WRITE such great music. Yes, the melodica ska rhythm took some practice.

[LilCrazyKim]

Haha! Very good. :-D

[Yetipuk]

Sweet! this one is better than the others...

[Betokan]

I love melodion =) it was my first instrument. Great job on your cover.

May I ask you how did you record the song without noise? it sounds very well

[logophile]

Hi Betokan. I recorded the sound for each instrument separately using a condenser mic, then mixed those tracks down using Audacity (free program), then used that track as the main track on the video to which I sync'd the video clips to. None of the audio from the video camera is used, other than to help me sync the parts. Does that explain it?

[Betokan]

yes it does...thank you very much. Btw i love your versions of the doors and you have a very strong and accurate voice. Congratulations ;)

[atavener]

Could I please have the bass tab for this song?

[logophile]

I am sorry, I do not have bass or any other tab for this song, I learned it all by ear.

[GostaUlvfot]

More like this, please!!!

/G

[onerealgonecat]

GROOVY! And how 'bout the kalimba? All on all an awesome mix of sounds. COULD use more cowbell tho'. what? no cowbell? sorry. =D

[Cincozeis]

Ey muy bueno...

[jowades]

amazing, great job

[RandomTask3000]

For some reason, melodica and Uke just pair up perfectly. Even stranger is how often this pairing has happened.

[fadiah1234]

YOU ARE GREAT. REALLY. I ENJOYED.

fEDERICO

[jawharp1992]

I have now subscribed to your awesomeness.

[shuckslbj]

Has anyone ever told you about GUGUG's videos? I mean, how many dudes can there be who play trad ska standards on melodica, uke, bass, and a few other instruments and film themselves doing it all? Well done, by the way, and sorry about the comparison

[logophile]

Yes, he's one of my two subscriptions. I enjoy his vids very much.

[shuckslbj]

You're the man.

[drogenwurm]

absolutely awesome ! great song and great band. You rock.

[jayrose22]

[southbayv1]

sweet, i love melodicas they are so addicting, i swear all my friends tell me not to play anymore and then i give mine to them and they play all day everyday

[JorgeSitar]

I've enjoyed a lot your personal cover of this song. Great job man!

[ryanmalham]

[GostaUlvfot]

[howlinhobbit]

Great vid, logophile!

pico817 -- you ought to check out Augustus Pablo, though he was more dub/reggae.

[pico817]

Man that was awesome. melodica in ska is gonna be the next big ska thing
