Back when Gmail was special…
Thursday, March 24th, 2005…and I was special too, I occasionally used GmailSwap to give away invites. Someone posted that they’d sing the song of your choice in exchange for an invite. So I asked him to sing James Kochalka‘s “Monkey Vs. Robot.” I got one taker.
It was so good that I needed more. I wanted to make an entire covers album. But no one bit, and now everyone has Gmail. And I still want to make that album!
Listen to the MP3 linked below: It’s brilliant. Matthew Margotta (also known as Fandangoya) kicked ass, and I want more like it (or completely different from it). Please send in your contributions. I have swell prize packages for EVERYONE who submits (until I get at least nine more mp3s).
- Cover version: Matthew Margotta – Monkey Vs. Robot!
- Original version: James Kochalka – Monkey Vs. Robot!
- Lyrics: Get them here!
Please? Here’s a permalink to this post so you can tell all your friends. Email MP3s (or post a link and send it) to bill [[at]] keaggy [[dot]] com.
Thanks,
