I didn’t realise he sings “to cut a long story short I pulled a whitey” until a few years ago when I heard it at a Music Quiz. Really made me laugh. Their early stuff was good with insight.

I have a stupid thing of shouting requests for Cotton Eye Joe at gigs. It didn’t go down well at a Manics gig but generally makes people laugh.

You are right, just looked it up, oh well.

yeah, I really can’t imagine Gary and co sat around in 1980 dressed like new romantic pirates smoking a massive bifter and pulling a whitey!

I’m pretty sure “To cut a long story short I lost my mind” is the line.

It is, you are right. I was at that point between 2nd & 3rd pint at a music quiz and that song came on for an intermission and someone sang the “pulled a whitey” bit and I then thought Wow. I prefer the misheard version. It is a decent song.

Single: Haddaway - What Is Love?
Album: Oasis - (What’s The Story) Morning Glory?

I was obviously looking for the answer to two very important questions.

My first album was also supposed to be an Iron Maiden cassette but returned it because it was sides 3 and 4 of a double cassette album but I’d bought a single cassette album. They didn’t have the tape for the one I had originally chosen so I got this instead:

Never did buy, or even hear, an Iron Maiden album in the end.
