Billie Jean (performed on 4 kazoos & a drum machine) | Michael Jackson cover

HAPPY NATIONAL KAZOO DAY EVERYONE! I decided to do something fun to celebrate. Here's a cover of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean on 4 kazoos and a drum machine. I've never tried anything like this before so it's a bit rough but I think it still conveys the song.

Intro - 0:00
Song - 0:29

Wow. That's crazy. I used to work near there so I went there all the time. I loved to go into the shop and drool over the choppers. LOL.

More than a few times, my uncle rode with Rick back in the 60’s, I’m a big fan of what he does with the ol’ Triumph choppers!!

Thanks BrianQ. Strokers is a place most folks don't know about. Have you been there?

Comment by BrianQ. on January 28, 2024 at 9:03am

You pulled it off & then some!!! Cheers to Strokers, good times in Dallas!!

It’s more difficult than I expected but you never know until you try. 

Comment by Doug Thorsvik on January 28, 2024 at 4:37am

I suspected it was a very ambitious undertaking with a quite primitive instrument. You pulled it of well, Tara recognized right off in mid song!

Comment by Poorness Studios on January 28, 2024 at 4:05am

Thanks Doug. This was harder than I thought it would be because you have no reference. If I was to do it again, I'd probably find a backing track, lay the melody and then remove the backing track. It's hard to play to nothing on a kazoo.

I’ll consider myself kazooed! You are the Kazoo King, Kale!!! Most excellent rendition of a Michael Jackson classic.
