She also can't act.  Though her freebase skills seem fairly top notch, I'll give her that. 

Her, Mariah and a thousand of their clones. Yeah, right, so you have a five-octave voice. That does NOT mean you need to show off every single note in one song. Less is more, OK?

Poor old Billy Joel. His misogynistic warblings aren't a patch on the Rolling Stones Under my Thumb
That song makes me all

Oh god - i just googled the lyrics... really nasty. What sort of a mind would write that stuff?

Cliff and Living Doll:
"Gonna lock her up in a trunk, so no big hunk can steal her away from me..."
You and whose army, pal?  

Worra bunch of snobs!!! *adjusts sequin top and attempts high note of I have nothing*

C'mon twinnies, do what mummy is doing 

Don't listen to her, twinnies!  Mummy is just having one of her I-will-if-I-want-to moods

Tooooooooo late Auntie Deman, the Divas have been released 

Noooooooooo, remember Minipops?  

Okay...I've turned it off now  Lets listen to Miles Davis Scetches of Spain and have some sleepy time 

Lovely... you know it makes sense!

Oh thank god, her, Mariah and that Dion one make me want to rip my hair out.

    right beside Mariah Carey and Leona Lewis

Just read the rest of the thread.. it seems I'm not alone.

How's this for lyrics courtesy of Hal David:


Hey! Little Girl
Comb your hair, fix your makeup
Soon he will open the door
Don't think because there's a ring on your finger
You needn't try anymore

For wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
I'm warning you...

Day after day
There are girls at the office
And men will always be men
Don't send him off with your hair still in curlers
You may not see him again

For wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
He's almost here...

Hey! Little girl
Better wear something pretty
Something you'd wear to go to the city and
Dim all the lights, pour the wine, start the music
Time to get ready for love
Time to get ready
Time to get ready for love

Surely to God you just made that up .......didn't you?

.............and Burt Bacarach wrote the music.
Jack Jones, Frank Sinatra and even Christina Aguilera recorded it. 

My mate was in the Minipops!

Do you remember that bloke who locked that estate agent woman in a trunk for a week in Birmingham? Wonder if that's where he got the idea from

So far I think cosmo wins the prize for finding the most mysoginist song. I can't quite believe those lyrics. funny thing is I bet I've heard it ....................I just never hear lyrics correctly and make up my own.

But hey, it's such a chirpy little tune.  Who could possibly be upset by the lyrics when it's all sooooooooo upbeat

I'm not sure that I do;  I think of 'estate agent' and poor Suzy Lamplugh comes to mind, but that was in London.   But yes, it does make you wonder.

oooooh yes I do know that song ......obviously didn't pay it much attention re the lyrics.

Joe Tex:

Three nights ago I was at a disco
Man, I wanted to bump, I was rarin' to go
And this big fat woman, bumped me on the floor
She was rarin' to go, that chick was rarin' to go
Then she did a dip, almost broke my hip
She was gettin' down, that chick was gettin' down
She wanted to bump some more, but I told her, "no!"
You done knocked me down once
You done knocked me down once
Said if you want to dance find you a big fat man
Y'all both can get on down, y'all both can get on down
Huh!

Chorus:

I ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman
I ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman
I ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman
I ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman
Lord, I ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman
I ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman
I ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman
I ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman

Somebody take her
She's too big for me
She'll knock me down

She came over to me, snatched me out of my seat
She wanted to get on down, still wanted to get on down
I told her to go on and leave me alone
I ain't gettin' down
You done hurt my hip once
I know what you'll do
I ain't gonna bump with you!
I don't feel like gettin' down
Don't feel like gettin' down
She just shook her head at every word I said
She wanted to get on down
That woman wanted to get on down
She did that dip again and I hit the floor again
She was gettin' down, Lord, that woman was gettin' down

(Chorus)

Somebody take her, I don't want her
She done hurt my hip, she done knocked me down
Done hurt my hip, she done knocked me down
Somebody take her, I don't want her
Say Leroy! You can have this one dude
This big fat woman, dude
I don't want her






We'd never heard of PC back in the 70's.

This wasn't long after Suzy Lamplugh and the media were making assumptions based on the estate agent connection - wasn't the same fella though. Did they ever get the bloke for the SL case?

"Mr. Kipper".....?  This is the story I remember :  http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2.../ukcrime.theobserver
