Classic TDA Clip on YouTube

Bill from Milwaukee dug up this dusty gem: Those Darn Accordions performing a cover of Elvis Costello's "Pump It Up" (complete with alternate, accordion-oriented lyrics not featured on Squeeze This!).

The video appeared on San Francisco's Fog Town Network indie TV show in the early '90s. The clip features the old eight-accordion lineup, and everybody looks strangely young.

LOVE IT! I remember wearing out my old cassette of "Squeeze This!" by playing this song over and over. The alternate lyrics are fantastic.

I'm glad we got a recording of the parody lyrics. Elvis wouldn't go for the changes I made, so we had to record it for the CD using his lyrics. This may be the last parody I wrote. Weird Al is so much better at it.
