A pub conversation veered into sublime enlightenment tonight. "Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba We'll be singing When were winning We'll be singing I get knocked down But I get up again You're never going to Keep me down Pissing the night away Pissing the night away He drinks a whisky drink He drinks a vodka drink He drinks a lager drink He drinks a cider drink He sings the songs that Remind him Of the good times He sings the songs that Remind him Of the better times: Oh danny boy Danny boy Danny boy... I get knocked down But I get up again You're never going to Keep me down Pissing the night away Pissing the night away He drinks a whisky drink He drinks a vodka drink He drinks a lager drink He drinks a cider drink He sings the songs that Remind him Of the good times He sings the songs that Remind him Of the better times: Dont cry for me Next door neighbour... I get knocked down But I get up again Youre never going to Keep me down We'll be singing When were winning We'll be singing
I tried to send an email but there's always an error so I posted it on this thread. The subject of the above piece is the New British National Anthem. I think you'll be hard pressed to find a better candidate.
Chumbawamba: top local band. Hebden Bridge gets a mention in one of their songs, and one of the tracks on their latest album is about Charles Darwin. What's not to like?
When they sang Tubthumping on Top of the Pops, their guitarist had a sticker on his guitar saying One hit wonders. Nice touch. Turned down a slot at the Superbowl. Female singer named after one of the Pendle witches.
Red sky at night...Shepherd's delight
Red sky in the morning...Shepherd's house on fire
Minced lamb & mashed potato...Shepherd's pie
Correct me if I'm wrong, but your sunset photo appears to be upside down.
Nope, definitely the right way up.

Couldn't agree more, Jon. Makes a lot more sense than the current rubbish.

Or was it on a T-shirt?
Sorry about the email problem. I'll look into it. But my email address is also at the bottom of each screen.
I've finally got round to fixing the email problem, by the way... There was a bug I introduced yonks ago.
