I Don't Think Sibelius Done It This Way

And speaking as we were over the weekend of The McCoys' transplendent recording of "Beat the Clock," I stumbled across this one-man remake of it -- by a Finnish(!) musician named (near as I can tell) Ilkka Heikki -- and I gotta say, it's the most wonderful unintentionally funny thing ever.

Of course, that's assuming it's meant straight, which I'll grant you is indeterminate. I mean the accent alone...he sounds like Madeline Kahn doing Marlene Dietrich, so who knows?

I should add that a) I can find no information about who or what this guy is, so if anybody has an idea...and also b) that if you look on YouTube you'll discover some equally surreal/hilarious Beatles covers by him.

But don't worry -- I'm not gonna inflict THOSE on you. 😎
