Howl in one.



Standing on a golf course
Dressed in P.V.C.
I chanced upon a Golf Girl
Selling cups of tea
She asked me did I want one
Asked me with a grin
For three pence you can buy one
Full right to the brim

So of course I had to have one
In fact I ordered three
So I could watch the Golf Girl
Could see she fancied me
And later on the golf course
After drinking tea
It started raining golf balls
And she protected me

Her name was Pat
And we sat under a tree
She kissed me
We go for walks
In fine weather
All together
On the golf course
We talk in morse

This is it.....

Is this my favourite song of all time??

Probably.



I could tell you lies
And spoil the surprise
I could say we made the team
But who needs them anyway?

Who needs a clean break
As long as we get laid
And paid

I guess you could say
We Made The Team
As long as we get laid
And paid

I guess you could say
We made the team...

Top 50 Outrageous trousers

Today, The Irish Times published a list of the 50 best Irish 'music acts' RIGHT NOW and top of the pops, first in the list, is yesboyicecream's very own MICHAEL KNIGHT. The list details levels of awesomeness for various Irish 'acts, awarding Michael Knight an 'awesomeness' rating of 50. Curiously, many of the acts one might expect them to rate more highly are only awarded single-digit ratings.

There is also an online discussion of the list.

I have nothing to add other than I thought it a little ungenerous for one commentator to remark that the list spoke volumes for the level of quality within Irish music at the moment.

NEXT UP: THE BATS - THE GUILTY OFFICE! It is a great, great record and I am going to post some mp3s from it here.
