I just discovered an album on iTunes Music Store that I do not believe I will buy, though I confess I wouldn’t mind listening to it once or twice. It’s called “When Pigs Fly: Songs You Never Thought You’d Hear” and it features some very odd tracks:
- CSN&Y’s song “Ohio”, performed by Devo.
- Peter Gabriel’s “Shock the Monkey”, performed by Don Ho!
- AC-DC’s “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap”, performed by Leslie Gore!! (With a certain amount of flair, I might add, though it’s a far cry from “It’s My Party”.)
Wow.

I’ve heard snippets of the tunes off that album. Peter Noone does a wonderful version of “White Wedding”–still sounds just like the old Herman.
Tiny Tim did a great album called “Rock” where he used his falsetto to impressive effect on “Stairway to Heaven”–and did the most frightening version of “Highway to Hell” that you’re apt to hear (he meant it too).

I personally think anything by Don Ho might be worth the price of the album!

I listened to about 30 seconds of Mr. Ho; I’m not so sure, myself.
