-mts.tyra, the one who's met Kai in two separate events and is DEFINATELY a FAN

[Nixster]

Here's the lyrics, get practicing people. ahemm. *coughs* and clears throat, ready? ...

 

 

 

We paid our weekly shilling for that January trip:

A long weekend in London, aye, without a bit of kip.

There's a seat reserved for beer by the boys from Abercarn:

There's beer, pontoon, crisps and fags and a croakin 'Calon Lan'.

 

And we were singing hymns and arias,

'Land of my Fathers', 'Ar hyd y nos'.

 

Into Paddington we did roll with an empty crate of ale.

Will had lost at cards and now his Western Mail's for sale.

But Will is very happy though his money all has gone:

He swapped five photos of his wife for one of Barry John.

 

And we were....................

 

We got to Twickers early and were jostled in the crowd;

Planted leeks and dragons, looked for toilets all around.

So many there we couldn't budge -twisted legs and pale:

I'm ashamed we used a bottle that once held bitter ale.

 

And we were singing hymns and arias,

'Land of my Fathers', 'Ar hyd y nos'.

Wales defeated England in a fast and open game.

We sang 'Cwm Rhondda' and 'Delilah',

damn, they sounded both the same.

We sympathised with an Englishman

whose team was doomed to fail

So we gave him that old bottle, that once held bitter ale!

 

 

He started singing hymns and arias,

'Land of my Fathers', 'Ar hyd y nos'.

 

So it's down to Soho for the night,

to the girls with the shiny beads;

To the funny men with lipstick on,

with evil minds and deeds.

One said to Will from a doorway dark,

damn, she didn't have much on.

But Will knew what she wanted,

aye...his photo of Barry John!

 

'Cos she was singing hymns and arias,

'Land of my Fathers', 'Ar hyd y nos'.

[n0fear88]

I just love this song!!!!!

 

BTW I've been confused by the red bits I added above:

Who is Barry John? My mind goes directly to John Barrowman, because Kai introduced this as "The Torchwood theme song," but I'm probably wrong...

And the Western Mail's bit... I've misheard it every time as "Western males"

 

-mts.tyra, the one already memorizing the lyrics

[autumnrae89]

lol anyone from Wales knows this song. Or should. Tis the rude rugby version you sing down the pub.

[Emma_Adams]

made me laugh so much when he sang that at the C13 party XD

It's a while since I've lived in Wales, but unless I'm mistaken the Western Mail is the 'local' paper (for local people) and Barry John is some bloke from Barry (a town in South Wales) He's actually a very well loved rugby player

 

I'm more concerned by the line about men in lipstick

[BondageBarbie]

 

I'm more concerned by the line about men in lipstick

 

Haha! Never been out in Soho then?

Oh yes, once bumped into Marc Almond there and THAT's a lippie wearing bloke if ever there were one...I meant I wondered if that's what made it a Torchwood anthem, in which case should I hide my make up bag?

[Badwolf_Smithy]

He is such a great man!

Has time for everyone

I met him at C13 and he has excellant!

Well done Showmasters

[Springmaus]

I can't book until probably September, but i REALLY want to go, especially because Kai's there because he is just amazing! I was speaking to him on Sunday and he said he hoped to see me there...i cant let him down now can i! As good excuse as any...

Unfortunately this year, I've got Uni to save up for and parents have banned me from spending on random stuff, but by September i should be able to afford it, and if i can't then i'll just have to!
