Thanks Jimmy.
I really apreciate some of the comments here, they are very flattering.
However, I feel that I should point out, in order to put the record straight, that the source for this tomfoolery is The Stranglers 1980's UK hit "Golden Brown". I don't know how successful it was around the world.
It hadn't dawned on me until now that there may be some in other parts of the world that would not have heard the original. What we have done is simply to have radically changed the lyrics for our own purpose. I have been getting suggestions that what we should do eventually is to resing the original lyrics and put it out as a proper cover version, which indeed we may look at.
Sorry there's been any misunderstanding. It wasn't intentional. I feel really stupid now and more than a little embarrased!
Hope it doesn't ruin the general apreciation of what we did with it.
Andy
