Mat Weddle of Obadiah Parker (?) going all solo and acoustic on the popular OutKast song, Hey Ya!
It’s weird to have the drumbeat towards the last 50 seconds of the song, but brilliant cover nonetheless. He almost made the song like his own, and I happen to like the original and this acoustic version is even better.
Download: Mat Weddle - Hey Ya! (OutKast cover, MP3 format)
Credits to Mocking Music for the download. Click here to see the YouTube video, and here for a cover of Radiohead’s Idioteque by Obadiah Parker.
Updated an hour later: Another acoustic version of Hey Ya! by some Icelandic dude you couldn’t even pronounce his name. Get the song from The Sigur Ros Message Board.
this is a sweet treat.. verycoolindeed
great! this is so much better then outkast! i was searching for this song so thank you
the “drumbeat” is actually his friend..who is taping this…tapping on the tripod holding the camera.
Bloody fantastic! Any idea’s where you can get hold of more of his music?? Or where you can buy his album??

Awesome, thanks a lot. This guy’s sound is just great. If I had to ask him one question, it would be; Why the beard?
Bad Ass!

Nicky, thanks so much!

LOVE your version so much!

Is anyone else having problems with this download? I get about 500kb into the file, and it hangs and won’t finishing downloading. The little bit I’ve been able to download has been great.
Does anyone have a different link to the same file?
can’t believe i’m still getting email whenever someone writes here 2 years later. anyways, i just tried downloading it. it is working fine. must be your connection. joel, you’re not on dialup, are you?
