“It’s Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!”
About a week ago, a YouTube video went totally viral with Andy Rehfeldt’s cover of the lovable Disney classic tune “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.”
A DEATH METAL COVER!
Yes, Mr. Rehfeldt has this talent of taking a specific genre of music, recording a cover of that song, but changing the genre.
Pop goes Death Metal. Heavy Metal goes Jazz or Funk. It is actually quite good and quite entertaining!
I am always impressed with Mr. Rehfeldt and his musical talents and abilities.
I had to laugh when he changed the #1 hit “My Heart Will Go On” to a death metal tune. I laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed.
However, “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” from the film “Mary Poppins” is actually a duet between Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke. Mr. Rehfeldt lends his talents for Dick Van Dyke’s parts of the song. But there’s a distinct female death metal vocal for Julie Andrews as Mary Poppins.
Who is she?
After doing a little bit of digging, her name is Sera Hatchett. Lead vocalist for the band Mercy Brown, from Washington state.
I have to say that I am impressed with her voice and her abilities to go into that growling “cookie monster” vocals.
I’ll be keeping an eye out for Mercy Brown’s music. The whole Mary Poppins cover song is just so much fun to listen to!!!
I wonder if after they finish their time in the recording studio if they will do any touring in this direction? That would be sweet. I’d go!
If you want to check out any of their information, videos, news, and whatever else that they may have to offer to the general public, there are links to their perspective Facebook pages below.
Personally though, I would LOVE to hear Amanda Maddera from CASKET OF CASSANDRA sing the vocal parts of Mary Poppins. I think she would just kill it!!!!
I think that there has to be great talent to be able to do what they’ve done here. Anyone can sing. And anyone can perform cover songs. But to know how to switch one song from one genre to the other, that’s just awesome.
