Yeah, we know… it’s been awhile since you’ve heard us Mess up a song or two… Here’s a taste of what you might expect, in addition to The Bearded Lady et.al.
- Miserlou Ohhhhh, so exotic, so sensual. And this is one that Kyle & Marty did the track for all by their limited keyboard technical skills selves!!! And belly dancer’s have requested us to play this. Really!
- Putting on the Ritz Our electro-swing version!
- Happy Happy Medley We did this fun fun combination of Happy and Happy Together (yes, THAT Happy Together).
- Here We Go Again Kyle evokes his Inner Ray Charles
- Do Dilly Do Okay, Marty happened to turn on the Oscar broadcast and caught this song. “What the hell is this??!!” exclaimed he. “Kyle, you gotta hear this!!! I think we gotta Big Mess song!!!” By Walter Martin for the cartoon ‘Missing Link’, most definitely a Big Mess song!! Oh what a mystery!!! Huge help from Antonio Gradanti making it happen!
- Smile & Mad World A couple of songs for peeking internally
- Tarantula Well, it goes without saying that we had to do this favourite song from Kyle’s youth. Be warned, it’s a terrifying ska tune from The Aquabats, featuring a terrifying Man vs Beast combat inspired by The Darkness!! Huh? Another Gradanti amazing track!!
- Toxic Now that Brittney Spears appears to be free from the clutches of her father, we are quite proud to present our Post Modern Jukebox version of this song. There was no way this could have happened without Nico Rhodes!
- And more that are not quite ready to reveal….
You guys are always so much fun to watch and listen to! We love it when we get to catch you busking at the waterfront, always a treat! Keep it up! We love you! ❤️
Big Messy Smiles to you!
Looking at the weather forecasts, it’s getting more iffy. Damn, is it my imagination or does this seem to happen EVERY year about this time?
You guys are the true meaning of ‘a cornucopia of songs’. Looking forward to having my ears filled with delightfully Big Messy sounds again soon! Do you have a guest list where I can sign up so you can email me performance updates? Musically yours xoxo
Ohhhhhhhh, a Guest List!!? I bet that I SHOULD do that!!
Thanks much for the comment, Joëlle!
I am one of the belly dancers that requested Miserlou.
Such fun to dance to a pretty awesome version of a belly dance classic.
Thanks guys!!! We had a blast
No, Chris! Honestly, you were totally 100% THE belly dancer! We really wanted to play Miserlou that day, but we were a bit concerned because we had recently played at The 39 Days of July and had played it then. So we were sooooooo grateful that you requested it!!
