Allister, the punk band's CD "Dead Ends and Girlfriends", features a punk version of "Fraggle Rock theme". Phillip Chapman, you will not believe this. (The CD also features a punk Backstreet Boys', "I Want It That Way")LOL, The title is "Fraggle Rawk".

I'm not a fan of punk, almost at all. But this is one original song that goes covered in the punk genre actually pretty well.

I'm not a fan of punk usually either, but I am very very happy the Muppets have found fans among the punk/ska world...be it the Bosstones with the Count(love that song) on Elmopalooza...the Gimme Gimme's with the Rainbow Connection, etc.

And of course emo indie hipsters Weezer...the video/special/merchandise thing with the Muppets was a really big boost in 2002.

Fraggle Rawk is an amazing version of the theme tune!

Usually once a month at my mate's club, he will play the song for me :big_grin: Get's the dance floor filled :wink:

Still to hear the rest of the album though.
