"down down down down, down down down down,
down down-down d-down, down-down,
down down-down d-down, down-down."

or something like that!!

it's been bugging me for a while now and google doesn't seem to be any help.

thanks in advance!

try the stone roses - fools gold

[welshwil]

see the second verse,;

The gold road�s sure a long road
Winds on through the hills for fifteen days
The pack on my back is aching
The straps seem to cut me like a knife
The gold road�s sure a long road
Winds on through the hills for fifteen days
The pack on my back is aching
The straps seem to cut me like a knife

I�m no clown I won�t back down
I don�t need you to tell me what�s going down
Down down down down da down down down
Down down down down da down down down

I�m standing alone
I�m watching you all
I�m seeing you sinking
I�m standing alone
You�re weighing the gold
I�m watching you sinking
Fool�s gold

These boots were made for walking
The marquis de sade don�t wear no boots like these
Gold�s just around the corner
Breakdown�s coming up round the bend

Sometimes you have to try to get along dear
I know the truth and I know what you�re thinking

Down down down down da down down down

I�m standing alone
I�m watching you all
I�m seeing you sinking
I�m standing alone
You�re weighing the gold
I�m watching you sinking
Fool�s gold

Fool�s gold

I�m standing alone
I�m watching you all
I�m seeing you sinking
I�m standing alone
You�re weighing the gold
I�m watching you sinking
Fool�s gold

Oh, I know the one, I remember seeing it on TOTP (RIP). It was a bloke in a wheelchair with a keyboard playing it. There weren't any other lyrics! I think it got to no 1!

[benhaigh]

yeah i think you're on the right lines there.

i didn't think htere were any other lyrics to it. just lots of 'downs' !!

at least i haven't imagined it happening :)

Get Get Down by Paul Johnson. He claimed to have written it in 15 minutes (presumably that included a 10 minute tea break).

[Keeran]

[benhaigh]
