​On March 5th, 2021, I blogged about The Wiggles covering Tame Impala's "Elephant" in one of the most unexpected cross-genre covers of all time. Since then, The Wiggles cover has taken over down undah, topping triple j's Hottest 100 of 2021.

​Over the weekend, they teamed up with Kevin Parker to perform their smash hit (and Hot Potato, too!) in Perth.
Parker had this to say on his latest colab, “When I got the invitation I knew it was a once-in-a-life time opportunity so it was an obvious yes. The Wiggles are the real rockstars in this world. I was pretty nervous!”

​Kevin spoke about how surprising The Wiggles cover was in a January interview with triple J.
I mean, it's no secret that right now isn't exactly the most chill time to be alive, but amidst all the chaos, there is still plenty of good in the world, and these performances are proof of that. This is good ole fashioned fun for the whole family; you just wish they'd appreciate it more. Look at that audience; it's a hilarious visual.

Kevin Parker is the brain and heart behind one of the most famous psychedelic rock bands of the 21st century, shredding his ax in front of thousands of kids who don't have the slightest clue of who he is. The unified basketball team I coached in 2019 got bigger cheers from opposing crowds than Kev did in his homeland!

Of course, it makes sense, I'm sure six-year-old Aussies don't listen to much Tame, but it's such a funny juxtaposition. One of the world's most revered musicians performing for a crowd who couldn't care less. I saw two stadiums go absolutely apeshit for Tame Impala last month, then he goes home to jam with the Wiggles, and you could hear a pin drop.

All I know is we need Tame Impala to return the favor and cover a Wiggle's classic. My heart's set on "Do The Propeller."
