Accordion Video Friday: better late than never!

Here’s a tribute to the late Wesley Willis, done in what I thought would be the most appropriate way: Wesley Willis style!

In case you’re wondering about the end of the song, that’s just the way Wesley ended his songs: with a “Rock over London, Rock on Chicago,” followed by some advertising slogan such as “You’re in good hands with Allstate” or “Budweiser, the king of beers”. I thought I’d just throw in a plug for the company for which I work.

Not familiar with Wesley Willis’ work? Here’s a Shockwave Flash video that someone made for Wesley’s Merry Christmas.
