That was very, very nice! I think you would be well served to bring your wife to future recording sessions, as she added a lot with her singing.

A very funny song, and snappily rendered, sir!
Brings to mind the oft-repeated quote, attributed to Mark Twain: "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics."

How imaginative! You are quite the songwriter. Is this the business you work in?
I know you like '80s rock a lot, but you do very well with this song, which I think is closer to pop.
Yes, I work in the water supply field. I was a teenager in the '70s when "50 Ways" was a hit. It has some fun chord changes to play. I had to look a couple of the chords up.
Code:
G6 D Cmaj7 B7-9 B7
Em D#dim7 F#dim7 Baug
Em D C B7
Em Am7 Em
CHORUS :
G Bb C G

UkuleleDaveey, you are the best! :bowdown::bowdown: I think that song has more numbers than any other song I've heard. I can't even count that high! I thought the hanging politician at the end was a nice touch.

Woohoo, Ralf goes negative! So great. I was harmonizing on the "yeah-yeah, do it all the time" fantastic.

God I wanted to do this one, and Day After Day as a medley, quickly scrapped when I realized what the lyrics might do for my legend status at work. Was so hoping someone would do it, and you did the heck out of it.
As for 99 Balloons...another idea quickly scrapped at a $1.99 a piece

Best bit so far!
Such a song, such a rendition, mouth tuba, it's a seasons first! Genius.
Most of all thanks for inspiring me to watch the BDDD Band do this tune. So great: http://youtu.be/qm0a7btAtsI
I thank you from the bottom of my shallow Spike Jones and Monty Python damaged heart.

Ralf,
This takes me back to high school circa '84. Loved this album! Great lead in the middle there too!

That second mouth tuba solo would have Leon Rebone rolling on the floor kicking up his heels in a fit of jealousy.
Somebody has to propose a Bonzo season since the Dog's did so many crazy numbers "Urban spaceman"
"Let kill all the beautiful people" etc. It would also be an excuse for dressing up.

Statistics are like bikinis... what they reveal is suggestive, but what they conceal is vital.

Sorry I havent left any comments on entries, busy week uke wise this week, gigs at old folks homes,practice for a wedding we are playing it (sounds a bit yoda that last bit !!!) and we are playing at a local music festival today in the middle of some beautiful forest that used to belong to Henry VIII.
Will try my hardest to go through the entries tonight/tomorrow. Thanks for the feedback on my entry,always gratefully and humbly your uke'in Pal Daveey
