Mexican Radio
May 16, 2012We love the original 1983 version by Wall of Voodoo, but it got 80′s-ed so badly: crazy synth work where there should just be simple guitar, extended way past the song’s natural structure, and an uber-thin mix. But such a fucking great song. So we cut it down and did it in our style. A huge, huge thanks to Wall of Voodoo for giving us the license to record and sell our version!
Original 1983 Version preceded by a short but annoying advertisement:
The Hang’s 2012 Version with no advertisement:
Their video is more interesting, but ours is more fun. Or at least we definitely had more fun making it. And that’s final.

To me, WoV music is sacred – but I approve of this cover!
Many thanks! We also dared to cover Chuck Berry…
