NTNON-England, My Leotard (Kate Bush parody)

A parody of Kate Bush (the music is a pastiche of "Them Heavy People", "England, my Lionheart" and "Violin". Her outfit parodies "Babooshka") from Not the Nine O'Clock News circa 1980.

I reconstructed this from two different version (one mostly complete in bad qulaity, one incomplete with good quality). Half of the first line is still missing, though.

I really like the bad quality one, it reminds me of the 80s (lol). I downloaded the 1980 series from a torrent site, and this is one of the sketches in the file, and I'm starting to annoy people with it :D

@edsigalaClassic Got a link to that torrent? Send it to me via PM.

Thanks for reconstructing this :) I keep recording the episodes that have been on Friday nights in hope that one of them will be this episode so we can have a high quality version.

You record the episodes?!?! Dear lord, upload those babies onto your computer, put them on rapidshare or a torrent site (or...Youtube...even if they'd just get pulled down) and give me the link! lol

I'm an American and it is IMPOSSIBLE to get ahold of these, as much as I try.

It just goes to show that the guys who wrote this on Not the Nine O'Clock News actually put quite a bit of work and thought into this and yet it comes out looking effortlessly perfect.

I was into yin and yang and hatha yoga Ginseng and caraway seeds and being a non-smoker My cauliflower quiches were better than the bought ones And I was thicker than two short ones People bought my latest hits Cause they liked my latex tits Everyone trying hard To get inside my leotard Went to my hairdresser to have a hairdo He asked if I knew "A La Recherche Du Temps Perdu" That's how I was introduced To Colette, Cocteau and Marcel Proust Now whole food cookery is just a sideline

"People bought my latest hits/coz they like my latex tits..."

This line alone makes this one of my favourite parodies of all time. That aside, the amount of research that went into the lyrics is incredible!

@molecularash I always heard that as "Bio-Bubble" and pictured Kate from the "Breathing" video which can't be right because that's too late in her career for this mashup.

This is not half as funny as some insane clip called 'George Harrison Rapes Kate Bush'.

bia-bye-bul!

@tarlcabot18 Oh, sure. I'll make a torrent and send you the link. It's like 4 GB-- so it's gonna be a big one! :D

[tarlcabot18]

You're right! It does have a bit of "Violin" in it! I didn't catch that until now.

[ManfredDeJesus]

Though I'm an honorary member of Mensa now

I'm going to try and keep up the pretence somehow

Would you buy my latest hits

Because you like my latex tits

And you're all trying hard to get inside my
