It's basically a coal mine. Did the place get cleaner after you left Bobby because that looks really bad on you [only joking with ya] Yeah! thats just what happened in Salford, they closed the docs down and the colliery. Unemployment went through the roof after that. Salford is now very clean though, so the powers that be are happy. My next vid will give you a good view of Salford so stay tuned.
Great stuff, it's up there with "I was Kaiser Bill's Batman". For a minute I was transported to Seedley Park Road. Anyway put your shirt on you'll catch your death.
nothing can beat 'I was Kaiser Bill's Batman' Jimmy, especially when played on a cazoo (and after a few half guinness/half cider) they just don't write 'em like that anymore
We did have a colliery once its now gone though. Salford is not a dirty old town anymore. It has changed so much, some folk would say its not as good but all things have to go forward and progress.
I have a video in progress and its all about Salford so when its done I will be able to take you on a tour.
yea justine, and it's gotta be one of the most covered songs of all time (he wrote Roberta Flack's 'First Time Ever I Saw You Face' aswell), he could write a haunting melody for sure
Rose...you are amazing, a whistler I'm not :( but I'd love to see you and YC whistle a tune together, as a matter of fact I'd PAY to see that...LOL!! Sweeeeet song.
very sweet and enchanting. Has anyone ever said you look like a white Obama?

'Haunting' is the right word for it.
Very sweet, YC.
Beautiful.

Man, this song always does it for me anyway, but when a true Salford lad does it, it just seems to mean so much more.
I sang along too.
Brilliant Neale.

So..Tony, I grew up in a mining town, which one could call a "dirty old town." Is Salford like that??

I didn't realise the original song was about Salford, however this version so peaceful and fresh turns it into a distant memory.
Lovely concept.
