Best "Stairway" Cover Ever

In an alternate or parallel (or maybe even serial) universe, this was "Stairway to Heaven":



Everybody else in the known universe did a cover of Stairway, why not alternate universes?

To get real for a minute, the Beatnix are an Australian band that covers Beatles music, and did this bit in a TV show in the early '90s.

  1. Nah! You really need to look at Rolf Harris' version, complete with woggle board and a weird sort of sycophantic beat ...

    1. Kind of has a "lounge lizard" feel to it, like the Bill Murray lounge acts bits on SNL in the early 80s.

      How about a bluegrass version?
