I felt it capture the groove and fun of the original and better than a lot of covers I’ve heard of this song. Here’s a bit more whimsy from Matt trying to sell Musicvox guitars by teasing some interesting and pedestrian sounds out of them. He’s a seemingly talented multi-instrumentalist, soundtrack composer, songwriter, producer, session and touring musician.
