The original poster's comment section for this collection is epic. They're all great: I liked "This is the soundtrack to carbon monixide poisoning." =)
the object of the Knack's bopping 1979 hit “My Sharona.” The band's lead singer, Doug Fieger, wrote the song's lustful lyrics about her when she was 17 and he was 26.
Someone once said My Sharona was Theodore's love song for a minor fan that he was secretly texting/dating at the time once he got into drugs.. he still claims that it was Alvin's fault. "He said the stuff would give me the energy I needed to get through the final show of the night, and breeze through the meet and greets.. if only I knew that it would bring out a side of me that I NEVER knew was possible. That ISN'T.. that WASN'T- I-it. It's not me, man. It's not who I am..."
Alvin’s drug use was all the way back in the 60s, he was just 10,and Dave had gave him acid to get with trends during the time, that’s why Alvin was acting weird and yelling in frantically at the ufo clubs when they were performing their hit song at the time “mind flowers” which was stolen from a little known band called ultimate spinach.
I've been listening to a bunch of these in 1.25 speed and this is by far the best one. The rest I think are best as they are, My Sharona though is definitely at its best a little faster imo
@@timmy841212 This was recorded in the '80s, so it'd be Jack Daniels. Still wonder how he never passed out recording these things, it feels like it'd be pretty draining.

![[Best with Headphones] The Chipmunks On 16 Speed - Walk like an Egyptian (Quadraphonic Sound Mix)](/img/n.gif)
The grungy quality of the instruments actually fits the lyrical theme of this song better than the original
WAY better. The vocals aren't as good, but they HAD to sing it this way. Otherwise, the Chipmunks wouldn't have sounded right.
The instrumental part at the end is reminiscent of the velvet underground.

Unironically a banger

@@InklingFan77Mettaton1936 it's shit at 2x speed you normie sub
I like to imagine that this is how they recorded all of the original chipmunk's songs, getting all strung out on lean and jamming while half blind.
oh most certainly
i would've picked black tar heroin but sure.
I can confirm, I'm the CEO of Alvin & The Chipmunks and my dad worked at Certified 90s Kids Inc. which means he was there
Kurt Cobain once described Nirvana’s sound as being “Black Sabbath playing The Knack”.
This song is pretty close to that description
The singer kinda sounds like Black Sabbath era Ozzy too lol
That's amazing
yeah
This is what I imagine an Electric Wizard Cover of My Sharona would sound like.
not enough fuzz and desire for death and drugs
With Dexter from the Offspring on vocals
This is the most underrated track off Iggy Pop's "The Idiot" in my opinion
RIP Ian Curtis 🙏
This is what plays in the head of stalkers
Is it just a game in my mind, Šĥärøñå?¿‽

I balanced things out as a 17 year old with a 26 year old woman if that helps

This Is the song from the perspective of the 17 year old
Can confirm as a 17 year old
Yep. I’m taken back to that moment.
This becomes a lot creepier when you have time to think about the lyrics.
For real tho lol 👀
Well this aged well
Well the original song was written about the singers interest in a 17 year old girl when he was like 24 :/
@@derelictgbdavidlovo107 Oh umm... More eerie,,
This man should be in prison 🎶
This songs about a minor 🎶
*to the tune of my sharona*
The guitar solo from 5:28 onwards is just pure strung out bliss tbh
These instruments are tuned down to the depths of hell
This speed makes me feel like I'm in a tar pit.
Patrick London fossilize me captain
that guitar solo is so classically psychedelic sounding. Very strong George Harrison vibes.
Thurnis Haley sounds like a bass solo kinda
Apparently that's Ross Jr. himself playing lead guitar. 🤯
HOLY HEROIN..
Deep angry obession anthem 🤟🔥
Just kidding, it's not healthy to have one
I do seriously think this version of the song could be played during a heavy makeout session or something.

the music sounds so creepy and pervy, like it’s finally caught up to the lyrics.
1.5x playback speed sounds like a sports anthem
This sounds good @ 16 speed
This is what I imagine Pazuzu singing to Regan while she’s trapped in the nether realm during her possession.
This is the superior version and that is a fact.
This is just so....Perfect
This version of this song puts me in such a dark mood. Great for pumping bombs into the heavy bag.
best version by far

it’s such a banger bro

Not funny, it has pretty serious tones actually

This sounds like if Ross Bagdasarian Jr. sipped on lean and recorded this and then sped it up and pass it off as Alvin and the Chipmunks lol
Tommy Ramone and Steve Vining are on this album too.

5:17>>>>>>>
this song contains the actual worst audio quality i've ever heard. i wouldn't have it any other way
Speed if up to 2 it becomes a real good rock song
2x speed is the og speed
Would this be like drop A or F for guitar?

Hmm, takes me Back. I’d rather smoke it than shoot it!
How do I get a guitar tone like this?
I don’t think you can,
There was someone who used to do something similar with a power starved octave pedal. Worth a try
Acid
baritone guitar or low gauge bass through a heavy distortion or fuzz pedal, then through a low pass filter to make it sound muffled. you’re gonna need a double coil or humbucker for the fullness you want
you can also use an octave pedal instead of the bass or baritone.
ok hear me out
instrumental of this song WHEN?
Almost a track of Black Flag's Loose Nut
i wish i had acid
Ya know ,this is what the track sounded like when they were actually recording the vocal. Interesting I never noticed that heavy echo on the coda before
So out of tune 😂 but it sounds better slower to me. Sounds like a five string bass tuned to an even lower E with a slight overdrive. Friggin awesome!
somebody please tab that first solo for me. @ 2:40
just... look up the guitar solo for My Sharona
