Optional Accessory ukulele video By Zoe

Erin Wilk says:

I love this video of Zoe (ukulelezo) singing a song about moustaches that she wrote for the Bushman Ukelele Contest. It perfectly sums up my feelings about moustaches - If you've got a moustache - I like you. Her latest video, Celebrity Identity Crisis is pretty sweet too - and her ukulele rendition of Nelly's Hot in Herre and the Spice Girl's Wannabe made me laugh out loud.

  If you like folksy songs about mustaches, you should watch this short documentary. It has a pretty awesome mustache theme song.

  Zoe was robbed in the Bushman Ukulele Contest. This song should have won hands down.

• [phlavor]

  She’s awesome. If I wasn’t taken I’d take my mustache to her.

  @6 It is not a fad, it is a movement, and the stache will not be stanched.

  @1: that was my first thought too. “You know who else had a mustache, don’t you?”

• [franko]

    Hitler, Schmitler! Here’s a totalitarian mass murderer with face fur to be proud of.

• [brooklyntwang]

  Does she like Hitler?

• [Takuan]

  brrrr! semi-keratinized protein filaments,how typically mammalian, squick!

• [brooklyntwang]

  Oops I accidentally a whole Godwin’s law on the first post. Is this bad?

• [kaosmonkey]

  Know what’s really bad? I had to go to the wiki because I had no idea what Godwin’s Law was.

  And, forgive me if I’m stating the obvious as I am new to this, it seems that a trap door will soon open and you will be plunged into a pool of hungry crocodiles.

  Bummer.

  Sally England Designed Mr. Moustache Pillow!

• [eustace]

  So talented, and so beautiful! My ‘stache is at her service.

• [Mark Temporis]

  I like her voice. It’s a very folky, sort of alt-rock sort that reminds me in ways of Concrete Blonde’s Johnette Napoliatano or Suzanne Vega, which is strange as those two sound nothing alike.

• [skramble]

  that gal is super cute.
  I hope one day she moves up to beards, then I’ll have a chance.

• [Sveden]

  Ack. Nice lyrics but her looking at the camera like she just farted at the beginning creeps me out.

• [ridl]

  I hate the mustache fad. Hate it hate it hate it and don’t like. I want it over two years ago, I want it never to have happened. And YET despite how manifestly awful the things look on EVERYONE the lip hair keeps spreading like scabies and empty tallboys in a gutterpunk crashpad. I weep that now even the BoingBoing has succumbed to this infectious open sore of awful taste. Mustaches are ugly and bad and make men look like christian cop child molesters. which is not cool even ironically.

  Beards, however…

• [fnc]

  Nice song, but my mind keeps putting the word “ride” throughout this song in certain places, which makes me giggle.
