I drove my Sarsen through your garden last night I kicked your front door down around at midnight Something's telling me, boy, that your avoiding me And when I find you, you will run for your tea.I've got a brand new shiny helmet, and a pair of kinky boots. I've got a lovely new flak jacket, a lovely khaki suit. When we go on night patrol, we hold each other's hand, For we are the British Army, and we're here to take your land.
And the last time I checked, this is still a free country and people can sing about whatever they damn well please!! Spare me the self righteous crap of "scandalous" music, if you only knew half of what is sung about on this planet you'd be shocked and your ears would burn off, ohh the horror!
For all those who complain of the songs inneundos, some of you don't pay attention to A LOT of other music out there that is far more cheeky than this!! There are songs that sing about all kinds of stuff and that are far raunchier or suggestive than this cute little song; even if there may be a suggestion of sex. I guess we can all just sing about the paint peeling off the walls but I'm sure someone else out there would think that was dirty too ;)
This is an outrage! Bill O'Reilly needs to investigate this and determine the exact manner in which these innocent ukulele players were forced to play in this band! Clearly they didn't understand the ramifications of this video, supporting the agenda of the Bastard Fairies who promote such scandalous songs, written by the all too well known feminist activist Melanie Safka.
The He-yah is tradition amongst Hawaiian musicians as you can see by the others joining in. It's a joyous sound of celebration. Listen to Iz (Israel Kamakawawiaole, most famous, version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow)... he has a great variety of cute little yah noises to celebrate the end of a song. What makes this version so cool is the addition of the ukes.... you have to let the Hawaiians do their thing if you're going to invite them on your song. Open your mind and your heart will follow.
This song rocks! Most their songs are saracstic (which is cool) but this one displays alot of respect. Look at how she hits the same notes as the original, her clothes are so different to the other videos, But most of all there was a part where she sings "oh" over and over and that was prime opportunity to be a perv and she didnt do this. Maybe its because respect is given where earned. Either way I like this song and i usually hate remixes but this is great. Good job!
was all good up until the end when the idiot in 2nd row yells out "ya",, what a good way to ruin ur songs ending, u can tell YTG was a lil upset too by her facial expression. other then that,, then,, the other version they did theres an idiot who slams his hands on the table blowing the song,, u shouldnt let idiots in ur videos..
I am a new fan of the Fairies. Love most of what I have heard so far. Not the best effort vocally on this song though. Have they recorded any original music or just covers?
Boy don't I know it. I just got finished chastising a British Guy for Slamming Americans. I cannot understand peoples hatred of us. We didn't elect our Leader, the Supreme Court did. We can't help it if he is a retard. Thanks for yourr words of encouragement.
Dude! If we can't flame the US who are we going to flame?? Our own countries? Serieusly! It's so easy with the states no matter what I can come up with everyone just agrees with me... Did you know that over 60% of americans didn't go to high school?!!
I could believe that over 60% of us don't have the equivalent of an highschool education compared to other countries.. IE. our standards may be lower..
But no way in hell can I believe over 60% of us "Didn't go to high school" MAYBE if you said didn't earn a high school DIPLOMA, but that still would be a stretch imo..
(Then again.. if you pitch in a lot of the older folks.. who knows?)
Hey I just wanted to say to all of you that your band is inspirational and moving, and as of right now the music you all made is helping me through a very tough time. I also wanted to let you know that I am posting a video open to all artists by way of the pen or brush, to do the art of my next tattoo, and i'm saying in the video that I am posting that I want the tattoo to contain some inspiration from your music...
AWESOME band, tune and concept! Props to the band and the ukulele players... Old guys and gals rule! ...specially the guy in red, behind the lovely and talented singer... You ROCK Uncle Richard! (When ya goin' solo?=o)
Haha, I see Rod back there actin' like he know how to play! Lol. Just kidding bro, we're proud of u! Maybe your God-daughter will be as good as you someday!
