    Lightbulb Lukes JCB song

    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    just heard the song for the first time this morning, and just struck me that they're singing in fake english accents. The 'me and my dad having a top laff' bit in particular...

    fact that he was born and grew up in england might explain the english accent

    Just looked it up. They're from Leamington. Still fake?

    I think it's a cracking tune, get's the old lump going in the throat for personal reasons, shoe-in for number one in england this week, outselling Westlife by miles and only pulling further ahead of them.

    "JCB Song" powers its way to top of charts

    Nizlopi's quirky "JCB Song" about bullying at school beat Irish boy band Westlife to the top of the music charts on Sunday, putting it in a strong position for next week's Christmas number one.

    Nizlopi will face Westlife next week as well as Shayne Ward who won the TV's X-Factor competition on Saturday night in front of an audience of 9.3 million viewers.

    The Westlife track "When You Tell Me That You Love Me", featuring Diana Ross, entered the charts in second place, pushing The Pussycat Dolls, the all-girl band from Los Angeles, into third position with "Stickwitu", according to the Official UK Charts company.
    Madonna's "Hung Up", which has spent six weeks in the charts, dropped two places to fourth, one ahead of new entry "Jingle Bells/ U Can't Touch This" by Crazy Frog in fifth.

    Girl-band Sugababes dropped three places to sixth with "Ugly" while American hip-hop act Black Eyed Peas dropped a place to seventh with "My Humps".

    Robbie Williams was a new entry in eighth place with "Advertising Space", one ahead of the multi-award-winning four-piece McFly with "Ultraviolet/The Ballad of Paul K" which was also new.

    Westlife made their second appearance in the top 10 with their ballad "You Raise Me Up", a former number one, rounding out the top 10.

    From here.
    Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.

    Middle class home counties lads, acting like barrow boys. Prime example Damon Albarn circa 1994-1996.

    On the song, don't have any great feelings on it tbh. Don't think it's that great, but not too bad either. At least it's two blokes who wrote the song and are playing instruments - better than some manufactured crap being top of the charts.

    I don't think those lads have any case to answer as regards their accents. they're from southern britain and sound southern british.

    I think it's good to hear people sing in their own accents rather than the homogenised sh1te any of the competition those lads face for the xmas no.1have to contend with. Westlife and Williams singing the aural equivalent of instant mash, knack-dollybird poll dancers, an ad for a ringtone and a Karaoke singer.

    If they were an Irish act (I know at least one of them has Irish folks -hence the 'dont forget your shovel' references -he appears to be wearing a peoples rep of cork tee in that photo in Sligomans link btw) singing in Irish accents they'd be slated as parochial too. There's no percentage in it -Proclaimers have been taking it in the neck for 20 years for sounding Scottish -despite their being Scottish.

    My latest bugbear is this 'boyband with guitars' phenomenon with the likes of McFly, Busted and a legion of cnuts surely in tow singing through their noses in an attempt to tack a bit of Billy from Green Day onto their tacky pap cack.
    " I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"

    Just to clarify, wasn't really commenting on the lads doing this song, just answering what a "Mockney" accent was. From what I recall from the JCB song, they wouldn't qualify anyway...
