so just checking if its just me who aint got a clue about em

btw there a "band" who rewrote songs into comedy lyrics, quite funny from what i remember but then i also watched cartoons back then too

 

Yes

 

Bloody hell, yes I remember them. They were about 25 years ago mate and they did exactly as you say. Early evening Saturday telly and used to appear on stuff like 321, variety shows etc.

 

Yep

 

i grew up listening to em, songs like mr rubics, the smurfs, some song at school

anyone know where i cn download some as my old man lost all of his RECORDS when our house got burnt out

actually be nice to make him a cd ( and another one for my car) woth all there songs on em

there was a song about keith and orvile also i remember

 

I remember "Smurfs on the run"

Mark

 

My old man has their records and shite.

"where are you all coming from??"
"were from from smurfland on the run!!"

fookin sad lol

 

Just scanned this in



Any requests

 

Wasn't that Father Abraham ?

 

its actually dartmoor on the run,

" what was you in dartmoor for"
"we borrowed a safe from the bank next door"

" how do you discover this route"

" we followed the arrows on out suit"

theres some REAL class tunes that i cant fucking remember

spagehti betty
frank spencer
christ knows what else too
theres loads of em, how comes many aint heard of em though

btw my old man only listens to 2 bands, one is the beeltes and the other is the barron nights, he also swears that they made serious songs too but i recon hes taking the piss

 

i saw them live in Weston Super Mare when i was a nipper, not a bad night out

i always remembered the Micheal Jackson song, something like,

'he coughed, ah ha his nose fell off'

found that quite funny when i was about 10

 

oh and another track called green knickers,,,,,

Wasn't that Father Abraham and the Smurfs?

"Beer, beer, Smurfing beer, you don't get drunk, and it isn't dear".

Yes, that tape is in our loft along with several Barron knights tapes.

 

I have just converted those above to MP3

As they are still going strong still after 47 years I'd possibly breach a copyright or 2 if I posted them , but at 2MB each they could be emailed

http://www.barronknights.com/history2.html

They still do about 6 tour dates per month according to their website and spend Jan - March working in Australia

 

".....why do you all talk this way?"

"Cos we're from Ketterin', ent we, eh?"

 

looked on there site

the BEST track they EVER done has gotta be " Du'Wot", proper classic as it reminded me of shopping at topshop/topman when i was 12 cause they always had the music too loud

tony can you possilbly mail it to b19bal@yahoo.co.uk

cheers

oh and fuck me they work hard

 

Arrrg yes youre all right

sorry.....Hold on... i got it wrong, thats good, that means im not as sad as some of you lot

 

billabong is also wrong as there from catford not ketterin,,,, hence the comon ondon accent

 

It's funny if you're from around here though

Probably shouldn't admit it on here, but I have one of their albums with that on from when I was a kid

 

yep heard of them too

 

long ago, outside a chip shop in walthemstow
lived a young rocker called greasy joe
who got on his bike and said "lets go"
he was keen, off up the high st like barry sheene
where he met ann on her new machine

chorus:
running away togethor, running away in leather
ann and joe
running away togethor, running away in leather
ann and joe

they past the bloody tower, at 100 miles an hour
they was so amazed that tower bridge was raised
they raced up to the top, to find they could not stop
thery leapt right off the end and landed in the thames
hand in hand

all done to ABBA's ....Angelo

fook me, how sad that i even remember all the lyrics

 

- Remember that only too well!

 

I thought the Barron Knights came from Leighton Buzzard.... they always played local to me when I was a kid growing up in Berkhamsted.

 

Thought so....
