Tennessee schoolkids "cover the shit out" of 46 & 2 by Tool.
I'm lovin' the piano, but can't help but get down with the drummer, too.

Nice! Although my little girl pointed out that the bass needs a bit more power. I concur.

Agreed. The performances were all really great but the mix favored the drums a bit too much for me. It distracted me from the rest of the band.

Kudos to the girl having to sing Maynard's crazy ass melody.

Let me explain - this band was like not quite as good as the Samples at doing this type of music in the mid-90's. But this tune here gets stuck in my head ALL THE TIME. I mean, I never listen to this band. EVER. I don't even like them. But this song is drilled so deep in my psyche it can never leave. I actually really like the hook... the whole "Why am I yellow?" refrain is the part that gets it's hooks in me.

Let me explain further. A friend of a friend of mine used to manage Strangefolk... so we all went to see them at the Wetlands one night... the Winebottles opened the show... We were all dosed to the gills. I remember the Winebottles set blowing me away with the caveat of "I really need to hear this band sober, because I have a feeling it's not as good as it seems right now." I was right. But from then on, this Yellow refrain would get into my head at random times. It's been 20 years since that night and I still get this song in my head about once a week. I walk around singing "Why am I... yellow. Why am I... yellow yellow."

I've watched/listened to this about a dozen times over the last couple of days...  The drummer still slays me...

I was just having a conversation with someone last night about good bands with really unfortunate names. I'd say they qualify.
I like the 4 guitar approach though.
