Everything but the girl ......

I was digging around on YouTube for something completely different and unearthed this .......... i remember it being released but had forgotten about it since, what a happy, unexpected rediscovery, i love it when this happens.
I reckon this is such a great cover, beautiful harmonies at about 1.27 and an 'artsy fartsy' video that even us old curmudgeons should enjoy !!

Turn up them speakers !

Never saw that one before.

Ben and Tracey lip-synching better than some have, I would say.

Thanks for that post!!!

love EBTG, but i wasn't aware that they had covered "Only Living Boy in NY", one of my favorite Simon & Garfunkel songs.

i'm gonna have to look for the cd of this one.

Try their song "Missing" on youtube (skip the "club mix" versions. You might recognize that one. There's even a tele in that one.

What sort of jazz box do you think that is that he's "playing" ?
