A little song for you all

Post by Jason Larsen »

This is a little song I made up for you all. Every single one of you knows it. It originally did not have lyrics, but I added them. I started the song, but I can't finish it.

Who's up for that? I will give major brownie points to whoever finishes the song.

Jason,
Did you say "cockneys"?
Sorry to say this, but I think you may need to think again.
I don't watch these programmes but you are more likely to find cockneys in London (in Eastenders.)
Whereas the people in Coronation Street are from somewhere in the county of Lancashire.
You may need to re-write.

I agree with Ralph. Corrie is a Mancunian soap (set in Manchester), and Cockneys are from East London. You need to change it to Mancs, or something like that. It would be like calling someone in Seattle a Hillbilly.

Ralph, actually, I meant to address that every new character that has come on Coronation Street is a Cockney, not every single character on the show.

I must apologize again, but I couldn't help the fact that for the first few bars of the song I sound like I had too much Mylanta (Google that if you don't know what it means.)

Ah! Jason, you obviously know more about Coronation Street than I know.
(I must avoid Mylanta.) ;)

There was a cockney family in the street a while back, maybe Jason watches it as an import for American TV, and they'd probably be a way behind.

Good start, Jason, but confusing. I think you should change the cockney bit, even if there was a good reason for it.

I liked it! :)

Julie, it's actually on CBC, right after the Canadian news. I get CBC since Seattle is so close to the Canadian border.
