Thriller en versión acordeón
Going through the referrals from my martylog.com stats I came across the following page from a Spanish website, where my version of Thriller from Popjustice.com is being discussed!

http://www.e-iko.com/archivos/2005/02/09/thriller-en-version-acordeon/

I ran it through babelfish.altavista.com and I think they are saying favourable things about me.

At first, they were incredulous. Why would anyone do accordion versions of songs? They say you are weird... But the guy who wrote the entry used to play accordion himself and found it charming that some of the notes are not quite there... They also praised the choice of songs because they are not very usual... Ah, but when someone revealed you play accordion in Scarlet's Well...,oh, respect!

Yes, I used to play accordion when I was 7, 8 years old. I remember I hated it, just because all I had to play was old folk songs. But yes, we've falled in love with your tunes, and of course as femme_letale says, when someone realised you played the accordion in Scarlet's Well we loved it more.

I absolutely loved the accordion versions: from the concept to the songs chosen. They are very funny. My favourite was the one by The Darkness.

Hello, Marty!
I met your accordion covers page through Iko's blog and I think it's truly outrageous!! My favourite is also 'Feeling Called Love' by The Darkness, but I also laugh my ass off listening to 'The Mercy Seat' or 'Take Me Home' or your Bowie's covers. 'Absolute Beginners' (I think it sounds so jolly and fun...) and the cough before 'Rock'n'Roll Suicide' is... well, no comments.
One question: Scarlet's Well is because of Tori Amos' album Scarlet's Walk?
Greetings from Barcelona!!
