Wonderful Mandolin Song!

[mandopete]

I am totally adding this to my mandolin repertoire....

[Theo W.]

Accordion players with pink and purple shirts? And funny French hats? I'm intrigued.

Oh and bad Italian English.. Check!

Awesome!

[rico mando]

Great ! now i have that stupid song stuck in my head .AArrggh

[f5loar]

I wonder what model mandolin that is? Looks pretty fancy and nice.

[mnosretep]

I'm thinking the accordion player should have spent less on his wardrobe and bought a better glue to hold his mustache on with.

[Bernie Daniel]

Well shaddapa my face, what a virtuoso performance. Thanks a lot for finding that.

[P.D. Kirby]

Unfortunately you can't unsee something, it is a nice looking Mandolin but why don't he play it?

[Michael Richmond]

Blast from the past. This was a big hit back in 1980 when it was released in Australia. "Countdown" as referenced by the performer was a top-20 music video show hosted by Molly Meldrum from 1974 through 1987.

Far more details than I ever thought possible about this song are on the wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaddap_You_Face

Thanks for bringing this back! This is one of the first youtube videos I downloaded for the collection, once I figured out this stuff. I quote this all the time but no one gets it - It's-a not so bad, it's a nice-a place!
