‘Monster Mash’ Revived As Anti-Bush Song

‘Just in time for Halloween comes a new version of the 1960s hit “Monster Mash” — this time an Internet critique of the Bush administration’s environmental policies.

The new version, a flash video called “Monster Slash,” features the original singer, Bobby “Boris” Pickett, taking President Bush to task for policies to promote logging and mining.

…In less than a week since its release, the song has already generated more than 100,000 unique visitors to a special Web site, www.monsterslash.org, according to its sponsors, the Campaign to Protect America’s Lands and Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund.

Pickett, who hit Number 1 on the charts with “Monster Mash” in 1962, said he agreed to record the new version “because, like millions of people, I think this president has the worst environmental record in the history of our great nation.” ‘ (Yahoo! News )
