A new song for Wood Badge

[Gold Winger]

I think that this song makes a much better song for Wood Badgers than "I used to be a hamster . . . "

Warning, the song will get stuck in your head.

Would be a much better song if they had included some bagpipes.

It's played by a rock band, what can you expect?

 

The only rock song that I can think of that has bagpipes is "Sky Pilot" by the Animals. Anyone else name another?

 

We'll be coming, we'll be coming! We'll be coming down the road.

I believe there are bagpipes in "Come On Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners.

[Gold Winger]

By a strange co-incidence I have Come on Eileen on my computer. I'll give a listen. . . . .

 

Too-rah-loo-rah. . . .mmmm .mmmmm .mmm

 

At this moment . . . m m m mmmmm m m m

 

Drums, bass, fiddle, piano . . . no skirling o' the pipes that I can hear.

Bagpipes show up in Steve Earl's Copperhead Road and a few songs by Slade.

I stand corrected re. Dexy's Midnight Runners. I did hear "It's a Long Way to the Top" by AC/DC on the radio today, though. No mistaking the bagpipes there.
