great album and song, but I'll be damned if I got half of the meaning...very difficult to catch for a non english born and bred non cricket lover....what is it all about?
@albengals It's about a famous incident in a cricket match in 1993; I could go into more detail, but if you search for "ball of the century" on wikipedia it'll give you more info on it than you could possibly want...
@sighkid hey thanks I checked, fascinating, I have no knowledge of cricket, but such a marvellous album might very well push me to get more acquainted with the sport
err at 2:15 and on-and-off thereafter? That he isn't in this one more is not down to personal bias or anything; he's in the other videos I made that day a lot more, but he doesn't really do much singing on this one.
I say..Neil's even got the "attitude" of a big star down already then ! ((what is he like? ha! >>>Call the band the Method, it's easier to remember for the sheep in Amerakay, if that becomes the case! From mad cricket fans to just maad, hey! it rock 'n roll and me loves it!!

"How such a ball could be bowled I don't know, but if you ask me - if it had been a cheese roll it would never have got past me!"
*Grins like an idiot* My absolute favourite line from the entire album!

"if it had been a cheese it would never of got past me" that is the best line i've heard from them so far

The line about the cheese roll comes from Graham Gooch - he said it about Gatting after the ball of the century got him

You're both right (kind of); it's "buffoon" on the first chorus but "baboon" on the second.

I am crying laughing ..."if that had been a cheese roll it'd never got past me" a brilliant album and a brilliant homage to "Fat Gatt" and Warney

Superb track - but the "cheese roll" line is actually a Gooch quote - Gatting was a man for his grub
