I am still somewhat hungover after the Last of the Summer Wine Christmas Curry so I have neither the inclination or the energy to come up with some songs about crustaceans so sorry George and C
I may have a go later if I can come up with any songs. Suggestions welcomed.
Now you may or may not believe me but I wasn't hungover or indeed drunk earlier on the Saturday when I picked up Glittering Prize 81/92 as part of a mini haul from a local charity shop.
It is a strange one in that it covers a period 81/82 when Simple Minds were good and 83/92 when they weren't
If you really need to have a Simple Minds compilation then Celebration is the one to have.
Here are a couple of tracks that just about pass muster.
I tried, but let me tell you - there's a lot of absolutely terrible songs out there about crabs, lobsters and crayfish.
ReplyDeleteHorseshoe Crabs by Hop Along is a belting track that features crustations. I demand more crabby songs on here CC.
ReplyDeleteSwc.
Adam, you're more likely to get crappy songs that crabby songs
ReplyDeleteSorry, that should've been addressed to SWC
DeleteI resemble that remark!
DeleteOh but I can't think of any songs at all about crabs, or even by crabs. I was hoping you'd fix that....
ReplyDeleteI have written about the Hermit Crabs a time or two over the years. Highly recommended! A couple of nice selections by Simple Minds, CC. The wheels hadn’t fallen off yet.
ReplyDeleteAnd the Close Lobsters!
DeleteI'd suggest Donovan's "The Tinker and the Crab", but I don't want George to hurl rotten tomatoes in my direction. ;-)
