During International Networking Week 2009, I was asked to perform a little song to open up the "Big Breakfast" Networking event at Lord's Cricket Ground in London. I unashamedly ripped off Don McLean's American Pie, which the delegates seemed to like... Excuse the slight hoarseness... By the way, the guitar was tuned down a tone...

Update 18/2/09
Bit overwhelmed by the response to this video... thank you all for your comments. While I'm at it, many of you have asked for what my dream referral would be. I have several. Hugh Hefner, Donald Trump and Craig Aaronsen (Sr VP of A&R at Warner Bros) are my ideals. Richard Branson is another. If any of you need music for video or television, or a song written, or a party band, I'm your man...

A wink is as good as a nod yet a business card exchange and new contacts will get you further. Nice one Richard Swan. I think Don McLean would be quite complimented by your rendition! I worked for Richard Branson's Virgin International Merchandising in the mid 80's. Lots of fun! Keep rockin!

Thank you Lorraine! Check out the new one!

I wasn't aware that they sold Kool-Aid across the pond. You learn something new everyday.  Keep drinking and Ivan will keep wiping your chin. Pip-Pip.

Er... that's lost on me I'm afraid - not sure if you're being complimentary or insulting... I'll assume the former and say thanks very much...

Brilliant brilliant brilliant!!! I absolutely loved your rendition of BNI - you simply tells it as it is.

BNI is great and agree the early mornings killed me but was well worth it!

I attended in Dubai and am now living in Malta and looking forward to joining here too.

Well done - you have a lovely voice.

This has always been a favorite song of mine, and now with these new lyrics I am even more in love with this tune. Where can I get a mp3 of this for my ipod??
