Armstrong & Miller - Dating song

[ConradTheCruel]

Punting your way upstream. Think about it... they went to Cambridge...

[nikobrown1990]

lmaooo

[danmccolm135]

I think it's "I'll take you way upstream"

[Robman275]

I guess they're trying to put the "Sensual" in Non-Consensual?

I'll shut up now.

[Seleteles]

I always assumed that 'idyll' was 'diddle.' ... 'Idyll' is nicer, though. XD

[anonUK]

And a happy Valentine's day to you too!

Python? Nope. Not even Eric Idle would have done a parody as straight down the line as this.

[jlim2397]

"Row row row Rohypnol!

I'll take you way upstream!

Just one tiny sip 'n' all

The rest of the night is a dream!"

LOL

[lfcwhitman5]

you only need one sip-nol.

[kingdomofheaven666]

I'm hyperventalating XD

[Rumpull4skin]

a modern day monty pythonesque sketch (I'm american; forgive me if this is redundant :)

GOOD SHOW, MATES!

[jobeystar]

Look for 'Flanders and Swann' - they were a 1960's British comic singing duet; Armstrong and Miller do a very good impression (although their songs were usually a little more 'innocent'...)

:D

[timbates12]

i love these sketches, and flanders and swann, the guys theyre parodying

[bundleHastings]

I'll take you way upstream (watch Ben's lips)

All trials...

....idyll

[whouster]

As always, superb stuff from Armstrong and Miller. It's well worth checking out the duo that they're parodying - Flanders and Swann

[aeronco]

I think it's 'punting your way upstream'.

[HactarThe2nd]

I can't make out some of the words.

Ro, Ro, Rohypnol.

____ing your way upstream.

You only need one sip-nol,

The rest of the night is a dream.

___ trials and tribulations,

Left bobbing in our wake.

Itll be such a romantic ______

That you'lll wish you were awake.

[dunebasher1971]

Not sure about the first one; by their mouth movements it could could be "hunting". Second word is "all" and third is "idyll".

[commie071]

I would almost certainly say its hunting. The only other thing it could be is punting, which might go a bit better but it doesn't sound like it. Thanks for putting up these vids.

[howarda376]

@dunebasher1971

Didn't get 2 and 3, but I think 1 is "Punting"

[killieboy93]

@dunebasher1971 first one's punting I think

[haznick]

Sounds to me like "I'll take you way upstream"

[MrPinkfloyd13]

@dunebasher1971

Ro Ro Rohypnol

i'll take you way up stream

All trials and tribulations

It'll be such a romantic hidol

[noisyneil]

@dunebasher1971

Ro, Ro, Rohypnol.

i'll take you way upstream.

You only need one sip 'n all

The rest of the night is a dream.

All trials and tribulations

Left bobbing in our wake.

It'll be such a romantic idyll

That you'lll wish you were awake.

[Cheezsoup]

@dunebasher1971  'Sno hunting it's punting.

[rabidsasquatch]

@dunebasher1971 Punting.....

[NOachillis]

@dunebasher1971 "its i'll take u way up stream" then "no more trils and tribulations" and u got the 3rd word right :L

[dunebasher1971]

@NOachillis It's definitely not "No more trials and tribulations'. Look at Miller's mouth, he's singing "All trials.." If he was singing "No more trials" then his mouth movement would be completely different. Compare your own mouth movements singing "All trials" and "No more trials" with Miller, and you'll see for yourself.

[Alzam68]

It'll take you way upstream?

[MrTubestation]

Some girls are charmed by prose or flowers by the bunch.

Others prefer a single rose and a nice expensive lunch.

But some you'll find just decline your suit how e'er it's carried.

But I have a trick that works time after time,

I'll never have another thrust parried.

Row, Row, Rohypnol, I'll take you way upstream.

You'll only need one sip-nol, the rest of the night is a dream.

All trials and tribulations left bobbing in our wake.

It'll be such a romantic idyll that you'll wish you were awake.

[Simracer1990]

@HactarThe2nd

1. "I'll take you way upstream."

2. "all trials and tribulations."

3. "hiddle" as in, journey.

Hope this helps. :)

[inlovewiththeboosh]

@HactarThe2nd

I imagine the first one is 'punting', the second one is 'your' and the third is 'idyll'

=)

[athull08]

@inlovewiththeboosh I agree on idyll, but I am positive that the first is 'I'll take you way upstream', and the second is 'all'.

[lexy1002]

@HactarThe2nd Punting your way up stream

[navenbya15]

@HactarThe2nd I think the first word is "punting" as in "punting you way upstream".

[lexy1002]

@HactarThe2nd Punting your way up stream x

[Squidgey55]

i crack up every time! :D

[lfcwhitman5]

[JediSlayer22]

Ro, ro, rohypnol.

[thomsonfly645k]

[Baden98]

No shit Sherlock!

[thomsonfly645k]

why the F*** did you minus my comment

[AdeV2]

Because you're an idiot, perhaps?

[thomsonfly645k]

speak for yourself

[Nannirk]

@AdeV2 Who the hell are you talking to?

[Baden98]

And because you're stating the bloody obvious!

[uarsman]

I'm with MattP on this one. I was laughing my socks off at the Rohypnol line (oh dear!). I think this is probably my most favourite A&M song sketch.

[edders05]

Bits of the Eton Boating Song coming through there!

[dball111]

I nearly shit myself I laughed so much.

[simc0123]

HAHAHAHA

[iamrightdammit]

hilarious, yes yes it is.

[mattb666]

God I remember the first time this was one, and when they hit the Ro-Ro-Rohypnol bit me and my Dad absoloutely burst out laughing. Classic sketch

[BeeBopShaWop]

Bloody Hilarious, me and the wife love this, extremely funny. Nice one for putting it on

[ajacpmcm123]

I wait until the wife is out !

[Petch]

I am totally outraged by this song!

How dare they broadcast my dating tips as their own!

[vigimael]

I love the response to KinoHermes' comment. Of course this is funny.

[grayabc1234]

oh do shut up

[TheLadyHel]

Irony lost on you, right?

[JonathanBloggs]

Yes it is.

[Smand01]
