Hi,two friends and I created a spoof country Called Swahovia last year. They supplied the humour and I built the web site: www.swahovia.com I hope you are not offended by our Swahovian version of Apache.I recorded two tracks, one with my Standard strat and the other with an Epiphone LP using didtortion. My friend Sam, keyboard player had already put down the backing track that had a wee addition as you will notice. Music teacher Bill Kerr was the camera man and also worked the duck. I hope you enjoy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJStIa2ws7g&feature=share&list=UUY6-TetyiRCzVRM4_OuKdPAWords in case you can't understand them. I shot you on that day and then you got away You escape and we hunt you more every time you went ashore. Gounta done a runner when I missed him altogether with that gun He's travelling the world and having every kinda fun there is to have. I wonder where he is he really is The most annoying little duck. Secret service try to catch him When they think they're gaining ground They're outa luck. Gounta, Gounta. I wonder where he is he really is The most annoying little duck. If I could only find him, they just seem to wine and dine him where he goes. I wonder where he is he really is the most annoying little duck. Regards, Jim |

Hi Jim,
Totally mad but I loved it. Listening to this took me to a different world....Swahovia, The Frekels, your videos, of which I watched most and the mad world of your finest air hostess. Thanks for that.
Regards
Kevin

Best wish Yak Sgninnej Braniaka Yak Sgninnej, It is good to hear from a fellow Swahovian. Keur Stashaan Yabeesh, Mayor of Mauvia wears the state uniform, made from our best hessian, you should be very proud to wear the same! Swahovia is special place and Swahovian ducks can only fly up and down but are carried on the winds from the mud flats in the Jagiskii region. Large milk bottle made special to hold the milk from the mandergraf when THE ALMIGHTY ONE milked her for 26 days and nights in the year 277. Yonyakido, Broshnak Nahohvo Trakinski Malokov. |

Hi Pete, glad you liked it. We had fun doing the video but I was glad that we managed it in one take as I was shattered!
Regards,
Jim

Jim,
Are you actually of this world? I had a great laugh with that but I'm starting to feel like I've entered a strange new space/time continuum in which cuddly ducks bounce up and down in front of Rasputin and his mate on acid.
It was great, belongs up there with Tommy Seebach's version,
All the best,
Len
PS Tried Swahovia once, didn't think much of the place, much prefer Gebrovia

Hi Jim, I understood all of the words (writing them down helped ), but I didn't recognise the tune  . It was very entertaining and great fun to watch (and listen to). Kind regards, Chris |

Sorry you don't like our beautiful country but glad you liked our version of Apache! Regards, Jim |

Hi Sandra, give Rasputin our regards as he hasn't been in Swahovia for sometime now. Maybe he will come to do a documentary on our ducks?
Regards,
Jim

Hi Bob, thanks for watching and also taking a look at the site, it's all good fun. A bit mad but what would life be if we were all the sane?
I didn't mean for another of my videos to begin following the end of this one. Does anyone know how to pause after the end in YouTube vids?
Regards,
Jim

Hi Chris, I appreciate your problem identifying the tune, I've been playing it for the last 52 years. One of these days I'll get it right!!!
