yeah, someone reported on here before that lou played guitar at a wiggles show for wild side.
It was never confirmed though, so think it was bullsh!t.

Had the george bush one for awhile , like that one.

But , my favorite wild side cover (no, not marky mark and the funky bunch)
is the No Sports one. It's a ska version.Sorry, don't have a link.
I will rip it and upload it if anyone is interested and can't find it.
It was on the album Ska : Cover to Cover

holy crap.
That wiggles song is even more disturbing than that
episode of Sesame Street where they sing Walking the Dog

Thank god I had my headphones on.

I agree, that No Sports version is great! I also love the versions of Wish You Were Here and the Odd Couple Theme from that disc.

Yeah,there's a lot of good stuff on that disc.
Love both of those tracks you mentioned.
My wife & I were gonna use that odd couple theme from that disc to
walk into our wedding reception to.We ended up using Joey Ramones What A Wonderful World instead though.

Bim Skala Bim doing Tom Waits Train Song is another favorite.
