Actually the Residents made whole albums full of covers.

The Residents didn’t do a COVER of anything, dude, read the previous comments…

The Residents do experimental music. Sometimes the experiment fails, in my humble opinion. But Constantinople is an early favorite both musically and lyrically. It’s a little jab at the idea of an afterlife.

yeah, this site just went way down in my estimation for putting up a residents’ video with a ‘wtf’. that’s their whole point. also the song is a standard from the ’20s and has been covered by many artists over the years. but you guys should google the residents and learn you something about wtf.

Christ I am SO SICK OF IDIOTS who like their stupid derivative “groove music” and can’t listen to something like MAGMA or The Residents and enjoy difficult listening. Screw your pushbutton computer wussy crap and look into some REAL esoteric recording processes you stupid weenies!

Nice to see a new group of people being exposed to the Residents; they’ve brought me much joy (and WTF) over the past twenty years. My fondness for them is in no small part due to two of the three Residents being from my obscure neck of the woods in north Louisiana. Actually, the “culture” there goes a long way to explaining the Residents’ bizarreness.

Some here have questioned whether the Res made this vid or if someone used their music; the Residents produce all their own media. They’ve produced literally scores of albums, videos, and multimedia projects since 1974, even have their own video game. Their work is always provocative and always strange.

I’m dissapointed in the lack of genitals in this picture.
