Does he sing "Packing blankets and dirty shit" rather than "Dirty sheets"?

awwww, that guy is so cute singing with his little ukulele. 
i like it. 

and i too thought he was singing "packing blankets and a dirty shit", but the more i listened, i realized it's just his accent.
he's saying "a dirty sheet' instead of "dirty sheets" . . . i think.

I don't know if any of you have heard it: just stumbled on 2mex's cover of Beautiful Freak. Not that bad.

I remember hearing someone calling themselves 'Nice Weather for Airstrikes' covering Blinking Lights (For Me)

This coming weekend my make-shift band and I are covering Flyswatter, and if we have time, P.S. You Rock My World. Doubt we'll be able to record the gig/it'll be good enough to record. We haven't practiced yet  :(

I played my gig last night with my makeshift band, and Flyswatter was indeed included. Went down very well, and went off without a hitch. The guy who played drums had never played drums to live music before, so I purposefully didn't let him listen to Flyswatter so he could make his own beat, which turned out to be a very tommy beat, which went really well with the song.  8)  Didn't have time for PS You Rock My World, though.

I don't know who this is, but musically this is one of the best covers of SJ1 that I've heard:

However, I have no idea what song the lead singer is singing.  :-\ One of the guitarists looks a little like John Parish though. Funny really.

Hello,

Bit a long shot here, but does anybody have the cover of I like Birds that I did around the time of the second tribute album? I seem to have mislaid it. I have a feeling it might have been hosted on Eels Italia at one point, so perhaps somebody around here happens to be a hoarder.
