I love this!! Quite funny in parts too... especially shrowsbury! wonderful! i'm about shrewsbury quite a bit at the mo (and i'm not spamming, i swear!) i'm working with a couple of groups, jamming with some mates other times, so if you needa fiddle player for this sort of thing, i'll be more than happy to help out. (i only live in newtown, in wales, so i'm no more than 45 minutes away should you need me!) again, LOVE IT!!

[LackawannaDan]

Excellent song! I'm looking forward to visiting Shrewsbury next week. Looks like a great place!

[judo231]

Love the song........ I love Shrewsbury... my home town.. I was born here at a very early age... I have lived here all my life... I love the people... it was here at the age of 6 that I started to listen to my mum's old 78's of Elvis... just see what effect it had on me when you listen to too many Elvis records...check out on Youtube... 'Elvis lives... again! ... Shrewsbury Golf Club'

God bless all Salopians!

[XedGeneral]

[KINGROOSTER45]

Every town needs a fluffy-faced minstrel with a proud fervent folk tune and Shrewsbury has one. He also wears glasses. Must be a bonus.

[Dec2012omg]

I was born in Shrewsbury too,

[LynkxMan]

Dude, I was born in Shrewsbury but lived most of my life in New York, some in Ukraine and spent a week in Tittlestown, which I highly reccomend as a holiday resort.

But Shrewsbury will never leave my heart

[flytrap1234]

shrewdbury(uk) rocks

[TounsiKabir]

Now that really is something. Sentimental feelings 're coming up. I wasn't born in ShrOwsbury - but nevertheless I love it. I came there in 1973 - with my moped and two bags. I stayed there for only one year. But it was the most spectacular and decisive time of my life - as I met my wife there. I used to live in Copthorne Rd and teach at the Priory School for Boys, my real home was the Yorkshire (Pub) where I used to hit my head at the low beam, sometimes the Pengwern or the Boat House. -Go on!

[henryismaster]

yer u do ppl say shrowsbury i think it sounds realy posh to posh its go to b shrewsbury

ps shrewsbury rules

[WhichDoctor1]

If you lessen to the real old salopians most of them seem to say Shewsbry.

I wonder how they say it in the US.

[madskilz156]

Shrewsbury US is much better

[andylowemusic]

Which one? There's about 10. Maybe I should go there...

[madskilz156]

hahhaa just kidding, your town has much more pleasing scenery compared to my town, im in shrewsbury Massachusetts

[andyfoxy1]

shrewsbury (uk) is the original =P

[mysticmurray]

This is the single greatest song in the world.

[andylowemusic]

wow. cheers :)

[mysticmurray]

I particularly dig the Spode china on the wall too

[Marieprefect]

I think it sounds absolutely wonderful - both the song and the place :)

[slayerseshj]

[lemdixon01]

I used to live in Shrewsbury and I think it is the best place I've lived in the UK and I've lived in a lot of different places. I'd say that Cambridge comes close and maybe Barcelona is the only place that beats it.

[Princesskimo]

I was born in Northampton, but I love living in Shrewsbury, so just thought i would say well done, this song is awesom. Could you send me the guitar chords please? would be very grateful. And yes, people who say "Shrowsbury" are just wrong and highly irritating!!! Lol. x

[kevalandavey]

Dis iz racist. az if shrosbury aint got any people from abroad

[Beechmiester90]

Wow..........idiot.

[gemaorangeface]

its shrewsbury NOT shrosburry

pronounced shoesbree

coming from a shoesbreeiteian

[CalHalbert1993]

Im sorry, being born in shrewsbury!!! and as a comedian i need to know my facts, and unfortunatly, althought we like to say Sherwsbury, it is infact shrowsbury, although only odd people say shrowsbury

[Beechmiester90]

No actually its Shrewsbury practically all locals have come to know it as Shrewsbury so the town has come to be known as Shrewsbury not Shrowsbury...that didnt catch on.

[Beechmiester90]

Wow down voting I'm so hurt *Sarcasm* -_-"

[agcp29]

I was born in shropshire ! xD

[sylar1717]

[voxnishi]

[Amy2star]

Fantastic! Just had to comment - that is superb, well played!

"and the memory of that war so dark, lives on in the form of an enterprise park"

Ha!  :D

[iimBLiND]

[ 5 starz] keep it up!

[Morriseyyyx]

oiii, what ya mean keep the welsh out!? We're some of shrewsbury shopping centers best customers!? :L

[andylowemusic]

I should probably put a disclaimer in - it's part of the history of the town, doesn't reflect my personal opinions!

[Morriseyyyx]

LOL. okay, sorry.. i was also in a bad mood when i wrote that, but yeah :L lol .. good ol' shrewsbury. Going there tomorrow likee :]

[screamotrance]

Good songwriting!

I would give it 5 stars if it wasn't for your dodgy beard. :)

[headandneckmusic]

AHHHH

[strawsnake2]

I'm from Shrewsbury and I'm so glad you don't pronounce it "Shrowsbury" Great stuff!

That's genius. Well played Sir.

[luntyboy1077]

great song!!! i personally think you're missing a key change!!! And could u let me know where the plates are from!! lots of love fellow salopian!!!

[andylowemusic]

cheers, maybe I'll go up a key for the last chorus. Most of the plates are from Cheshire, one from a shop in Simonstown, South Africa.

[Beechmiester90]

I was born in Shrewsbury but I grew up in Shawbury which is a little village just a few miles away.

[Muffty0805]

What a great song. So funny and so truthfull. love it!!

[nightmonkeyshrops]

[shrewz92]

What a nice song. My surname is Shrewsbury and I hope to visit there, someday. Keep writing and singing. could you post the lyrics?

[andylowemusic]

[bellibulle1]

[mysticmurray]

Ridiculous.

[TheMikey1961]

Abbey Foregate Cherry Orchard Crowmoor School Belvedere School Belmont Youth Centre The Oak Hotel (Shelton) The Quarry + Dingle The Wyle Cop River Severn The Square The Clock Tower on the market THE GAY MEADOW I've been in Manchester for the last 20 years, I feel like it's time to come home after that song... :-) It's sad that some of my favourite places are gone, and I see many changes when I visit my family.

[voxnishi]

the gay meadow is gone :'(

[burgessillust]

You are very talented! excellent song shrewsbury is great, i was also born in it yey! :)

[sharpie531]

town pride!

telford doesn't have a folk song

pwned

[heathazed]

Wow, amazing song and voice. My parents had a house on Hafren Road. I still remember the fireworks at the end of the Flower Show. :)

[Tringolew]

Hey I was born in Shrewsbury too! Great song - it made me nod and clap my hands when you pointed out the correct pronunciation.

And yes, we all do hate the Darwin  Gate. It sucks.

Awesome, loving it! :)

[wake5150]

Great job mate!

I live in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, USA. We pronounce it "SHREWS" Bury (without the British accent of course). That and the fact that we're Arsenal FC fans, maybe you'll want to change the way you pronounce it.

I really enjoyed listening to your song. Guitar work was good, and your singing was great. Of course, I didn't really understand what the Darwin Gate was, or the big town crier guy.....

Keep rocking.

Peace

[drumerscrutuc]

darwins gate is a medium size group of statues that when looked upon from down the road at the correct angle they merge together to form and arch. its really shit and a complete was of money :]

[maccers16]

actually most people pronounce it "shrews"bury...there is often a debate here as to the proper way of pronouncing Shrewsbury

[paraniodchris2]

i socialize in Shrewsbury and live approx. 5 miles away and it is as u say Shrews-bury not Shrose-bury respect man x

[voxnishi]

alrite chris aint seen ya since lenny nearly killed himself that day...

[BroadwayKidNamedJosh]

I was born here! But now i live in London.

[doublenatural]

God, it's been a long time since I lived in Shrewsbury. I loved that town. Awesome song!

[vivalarazza1]

[voxnishi]

[vivalarazza1]

Get better come backs numb nuts!!

[andylowemusic]
