  • Big Train was very underrated - certainly better than that shit Little Britain.

  • The fact that McTell has written tons of wonderful songs that people "in general" don't know - is not missed by the authors of this sketch. That is the whole point - as someone said above - this is taking the mickey out of so called "fans" whose real knowledge is very shallow. This sketch is pro McTell. If you got off your high-horse for a few seconds you would see that it is not trying to be mean to Ralph at all. Step back from the trees and see the wood...

  • what are you doing ? stop it! lol

  • 谢谢。Thank you by the way.

  • @changtianbailang He says that the song is called "The Highwayman", although I don't think it's the real title or even a real song, could not find anything in the web.

  • 唱完streets of london后他继续唱的哪首歌叫什么名字?what"s the song after he singing the streets of london?

  • 很喜欢西蒙佩吉,但是bbc这部电视剧没有在中国推广,没办法看­,可惜了。

  • "Free Bird!"

  • bloody 'fans'

  • i like the british humor^^

  • @AshtonArcher because little britain lis over played you faggit

  • Covers are maybe so popular as people like what they already know- and it takes no effort to listen to what you already know, as you can anticipate the bits you like-

    This holds true of a musician's ''Classic'' songs- the public only ever want to hear the classics, and new material is greeted with horror!

    Big Train definitely knocks spots off ''Little Britain''.
