An 80smetalman Poll: Which Metal Artist Would Best Cover the Song Yummy, Yummy, Yummy?
In a post featured by Danica who writes the blog, “Living a Beautiful Life,” I have been inspired and encouraged by her to make up a poll. Danica featured the only hit from 1960s band, Ohio Express, “Yummy, Yummy, Yummy.” That song took me way back as I remember listening to it on the radio when I was seven and would sing along with the words. After all, they weren’t that difficult. What I picked up on when I listened to it a couple of days ago after oh so many years was there was a bit of a crunching beat to it. This led me to conclude that the song would sound pretty good if metalized. When I brought the subject up to Danica, she put forward two acts she thought would do a good job with it and I countered with three.
Danica’s Choices:
Now For My Choices:
Obviously, the choices aren’t limited to these. I’m sure there are many of you out there who have their own opinion as to who could best give “Yummy, Yummy, Yummy” a metal spin. If so, Danica and I would love to hear your thoughts.

Love this! Excellent choices too. I’d especially like to hear what Ozzy would do with it.

I think Joey Belladonna would nail the vocals with Scott Ian, Frank Bello and Charlie Benante providing a killer rhythms section for it. We’d have to make room for Rob Craggiano to hammer out a guitar solo as well.

That would be very interesting. Of course, they’ll have to use all their fake blood tricks for the video.
