Dribbling All Over The World: The Five Lions
Available online to download.
Musical Style: Rock / Pop.
Over The Moon: A pretty decent cover of Status Quo’s legendary Rock anthem “Rocking All Over The World”, this song is both an England Anthem and a marketing tool for creator Duncan Naylor’s own invention the Dribble Mat – a World Cup-themed toilet mat that no self-respecting footie fan can live without. The song resulted from a bet that, for £500, Duncan could write and record a footie song that would play the opposition off the pitch. On a tight budget pulling a zillion pub favours, Duncan and the rest of the Five Lions belted out cover of the Quo’s classic hit with the lyrics very artfully adapted to fit the occasion. The song has apparently already gained overwhelming responses from Hallam FM. Duncan also picks up points for sending in this hilarious joke:
A German family head out one Saturday to do some shopping. While in the sports shop the son picks up an England football shirt and says to his sister, "I've decided to be an England supporter and I would like this for my birthday."
His big sister is outraged by this and promptly whacks him round the head and says, "Go talk to your mother." So off goes the little lad with the white and red football shirt in hand and finds his mother. "Mum?"
"Yes son?" "I've decided I'm going to be an England supporter and I would like this shirt for my birthday". The mother is outraged at this, promptly whacks him around the head twice and says, "Go talk to your father." Off he goes with the football shirt in hand and finds his father. "Dad?" "Yes son?" "I've decided I'm going to be an England supporter and I would like this shirt for my birthday." The father is outraged and promptly whacks his son around the head 4 times and says:
"No son of mine is ever going to be seen in THAT!" About half an hour later they're all back in the car and heading towards home. The father turns to his son and says; "Son, I hope you've learned something today?"
The son says, "Yes dad I have." "Good son, what is it?" The son replies, "I've only been an England supporter for an hour and already I hate you German Bastards!"
Sick As A Parrot: Not at all piss-poor, but the version available online clearly isn’t the finished article, as the song is due to be mastered by the Ministry of Sound. Meanwhile the production on Dribbling All Over The World is the obvious casualty of the shortage of both cash and time, as the muffled result sounds as if it’s being sung and played from under a huge pile of dribble mats.
Terrace Appeal: 7/10
