The Internet seems to be lacking a Peter Combe version of Chopsticks, so here's one for you.

LYRICS

I play the violin every morning, and every evening, of everyday.
Suzuki, Bach, Vivaldi, Schumann, but really all that I want to play is: *chopsticks music*

I play the grand piano, practice my chords, and scales, and apegios.
So boring, and, it drives my family up the wall, Dad says; why don't you play: *chopsticks music*

I play the flute, the silver flute. But it doesn't sound much like James Gallway.
I wonder if when he was ten, whether sometimes he was allowed to play: *chopsticks music*

I'd really love to sing a classical song or two at the opera house.
I'd sound like Pavarotti: *la la la etc...*

  • Im so glad this song is now up on youtube. Any idea where that was filmed? Coz i swear I went to see him a youngie or it was franscis henri...think peter. Went to see him last year which was so much fun. Love to just sway like crazy to this song!!!

  • Adelaide's Festival Centre, in April 1992

  • I typed out the lyrics, according to me, up there on the right. Any corrections, let me know.

  • No.

    He was THE kids musician in the 1980s and 1990s, before the whore-like Wiggles released stupid songs about crap.

    Peter Combe's songs are far, far better.

  • No thanks.

    I simply don't like The Wiggles. It has never done anything for me.

    The beauty about sight is that it is no reliable, and how we view something is based largely on our own opinion.

    We clearly don't share the same one, and that's fine.

    I feel both Peter Combe and Don Spencer's songs have better lyrics, more life, and greater relevance to me.

    However, that is based on my experiences, not yours, so your opinion is your own, and I'll respect that, even if I think The Wiggles suck.

see all

  • Adelaide Festival Centre in 1992, i'm probably in the audience there somewhere

  • If only Peter Combe was ageless and was able to entertain my kids as he enterained me. Problem is, I have no kids yet!!!!

  • I used to love Peter Combe when I was a kid! I thought he was so talented, so such a great singer & funny! He always made me laugh.

  • The new Pavarotti is now here!!!

  • @clairzilla Me too! Classic.

  • @NewhamMatt Soooo true...Peter and Don are awesome :) Sadly I didn't grow up listening to their music as much as I would have wanted cos I wasted most of my childhood listening to The Wiggles :(

  • @LandyGerhardt I doubt it. He's too with it these days to have fucked his brain up back then. Just naturally creative and brilliant. Incredibly intelligent man as well.

  • omg i totaly had this on VHS do you know how many memoueies we had dancing to this
