The Ballad of
Peter Pumpkinhead
was remade by The
Crash Test Dummies
in 1994, presumably for the movie
Dumb and Dumber
, whose soundtrack also sported
The Primitives
' remix of their own
Crash
and a disturbing version of
Donovan
's
Hurdy Gurdy Man
, sung by the
Butthole Surfers
.
Of note concerning
The Ballad
is that it marks the first widespread Crash Test Dummies release that features
Ellen Reid
on lead vocal rather than
Brad Roberts
' trademark bass-like voice. Also, for reasons unknown, the Dummies eliminated the verse concerning
empty churches
and
shopping malls
.
