my greatest memory of university was in first year when one night after watching my friends play an open mic night at a restaurant downtown, we were all waiting for the pub bus to take us back to campus. They pulled out their guitars and eventually my friend Dave started playing Hey Ya. By the time the bus came to pick us up there was over 100 people watching/singing along. Then when everyone got on the bus he pulled out his guitar again and played an extended version of it, and the whole bus sang and danced to it. People were actually crowd surfing in the bus. It was amazing.

wow...it changes the entire feeling of the song.

yeah

the cool thing is that the lyrics don't sound weird with this completely different take on it (except for the shake it part, though I think he does a good job of keeping that part nice and bouncy, and I love the way it leads into him belting out the last round of "hey ya"s)

I saw this song performed last night by Jason Webley, an accordion playing street performer who happened to be opening for the Dresden Dolls. It was pretty interesting, I will put an mp3 up after I transfer the recording.
