Friend Like Me - The Chipmunks


Here is another track from WHEN YOU WISH UPON A CHIPMUNK, an album of Disney songs in squeaky Chipmunk voices. This one is not as bad as the last although it is still not great.

THE CHIPMUNKS, voiced by their creator, Ross Bagdasarian, have made quite a career for themselves seeing as they were created as a one-off novelty act. Dozens of albums, a few tv series, a feature film! They started way back in 1958 and are still going strong today!

My favourite thing about the Chipmunks is that even though they are cartoon characters, they act like real actors. Their albums are recorded as if they are actual recording artists and their tv shows are like reality tv, following their careers (and other adventures).

I hope you like this track as it may be the only Friend Like Me cover you'll hear in a while. Aside from A Whole New World, Aladdin covers are pretty rare.

Isn't that just the original just played at 78?

Thanks for restoring some kind of faith for The Chipmunks.
It's not the most sublime cover here, but it is an addictive cover, for some reason.
