Mahna Mahna Saved The Fray

According to the new article in the The Fray may have disbanded were it not for The Muppets.
Of all the people impacted over the years by the lovable Muppets - singing frog Kermit, sassy Miss Piggy and their friends - perhaps the most unlikely is the rock band The Fray.

"Following the success of their second album, 2009's self-titled The Fray, the four members were on the verge of breaking up. Then, lead singer/pianist Isaac Slade and bassist Joe King were put together in one room in Las Vegas to record a cover of the classic Muppets song Mahna Mahna for the Muppets: The Green Album record released in August 2011.

"Something happened between the Muppets, the drunkenness and Las Vegas, and Joe and I maybe both remembered at the same time that we actually enjoy doing this," Slade said."
