Ukelele Orchestra Takes on The Who, Nirvana, & Shaft [VIDEOS]
Sure, anybody can rock out with electric guitars. But the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain manages to perform great rock and pop songs with an unorthodox instrument choice. See a few of our favorites, from "Smells like Teen Spirit" to The "Theme From Shaft" after the jump.
I love strange covers of songs. I am addicted to the String Quartet covers, and the Piano Tribute covers that are offered by Vitamin Records. So, when I saw these ukulele covers, I was ecstatic. What's the most odd cover/tribute song you've ever heard?
"Pinball Wizard," The Who
"Smells Like Teen Spirit," Nirvana
"Theme from Shaft," Isaac Hayes
You Don't Bring Me Flowers," Neil Diamond and Barbra Streisand
"Psycho Killer," The Talking Heads
