Roadford 2009 Music choices

Post by Michael Brigg »

If I make it to Roadford, (a sincere wish) I'm perhaps making a presumption that there may be a "disco." If so this is a plea to avoid House, Ska and all those strange noises that come from modern cars with blacked out windows.

I recall earlier in the year suggesting "The Smoz", Jimmy Durante, Singing "I'm the man that found the Lost Chord" for Rupert's Tonic.

I also like "Beachbaby" by First Class. :D :D :D

Along with the usual Stones, Monkees, Elvis and Beatles that can be garuanteed to make us embarass our children, are there any other less well known but interesting or dare I say classic numbers to entertain us!

Let us give this section of the forum a purpose!

Do they do requests?! If so, they'll be dreading the arrival of Mr Brigg!

Here's an Anthem for you to a well known disco tune!

CVRDA ANTHEM
(Apologies to Village people.)


Young man, there's no need to feel down.
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.
I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy.

Young man, there's a place you can go.
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough.
You can sail there, and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time.

It's fun to sail with the C-V-R-D-A
It's fun to sail with the C-V-R-D-A

They have everything that you need to enjoy,
You can hang out with all the boys ...

It's fun to sail with the C-V-R-D-A.
It's fun to sail with the C-V-R-D-A.

You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel ...

Young man, are you listening to me?
I said, young man, what do you want to be?
I said, young man, you can make real your dreams.
But you've got to know this one thing!

No man does it all by himself.
I said, young man, put your pride on the shelf,
And just go there, to the C-V-R-D-A.
I'm sure they can help you today.


It's fun to sail with the C-V-R-D-A.

You can do whatever you feel ...

Young man, I was once in your shoes.
I said, I was down and out with the blues.
I felt no man cared if I were alive.
I felt the whole world was so jive ...

That's when someone came up to me,
And said, young man, take a look at the web.
It's a place there called the C-V-R-D-A.
They can start you back on your way.

then just sail with the C-V-R-D-A
young man, young man I was once in your shoes
young man, young man I said, I was down and out with the blues.
C-V-R-D-A

or then at the close of play!


You did it your way
CVRDA Lament
Apologies to Paul Anka.


And now, the end is near;
It’s time to get, a brand new question.
My friend, Ill say it clear,
Ill state my case, of which I’m certain.

I’ve read this question through.
I’ve read everything you’ve had to say;
And noticed this, and only this,
You did it the wrong way.

Good puns, I’ve found a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I noticed each and every slip;
Each dreadful joke on this in-formation highway,
And noticed this, and only this,
You did it the wrong way

Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
When I laughed, but they were few.
But through it all, there was no doubt,
You fucked it up, you blew it out.
I faced it all and still you all;
Did it the wrong way.

I’ve groaned, I’ve cursed and cried.
And I feel you’ve been abusing.
And the few, good puns aside,
I found nothing too amusing.

To think I did all that;
And it was gay – (not in a good way),
Oh CVRDA, with a three,
You did it the wrong way.

For what is a question, what has it got?
Well this one, really has naught.
To say the things it truly asked;
Very few managed the task.
The record shows this question blows -
You did it the wrong way.


Sorry, too long an Airport delay no newspaper Blackberry Battery Charged up!
Simples.

I think your spell checker is working to well. I am sure it should read "you can hang out with all the buoys"

ps I think this should be in the banter section.
