**** all, but I've never seen it. "3 out of a possible 10 You’re a disgrace to rock. You deserve to choke on vomit. Someone else’s vomit." Anybody feeling bilious?
You would get that if you had seen it. For anyone old enough to have been around at the time they are parodying it is priceless.
9/10. Didn't know no 2. A film you can watch numerous times and still get something fresh out of. Anyone around in the sixties will appreciate the bit where they are on about all the name changes. "Then we became the Originals. But there was already a band called that so we became The New Originals".
The songs are fantastic. My girlfriend fits me like a flesh Tuxedo, I wanna sink her with me pink torpedo. Big bottom, big bottom. Talk about bum cakes my girl's got 'em.
Not a patch on it, though. Spinal Tap captures the times so well. Not to mention the quality of the songs. Stonehenge's lyrics sound creditable and typical of what the Yanks fell for but then you start analysing them... Carved into the living rock...
Starts off with a Frank Zappa line and goes from there. Like the use of behind. And the so I have read which was used by so many in that era. Mud flaps LOL. The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin' Or so it is said The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand Or so I have read My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo I'd like to sink her with my pink torpedo Big bottom, big bottom Talk about bum cakes, my girl's got 'em Big bottom drive me out of my mind How could I leave this behind? I met her on Monday, 'twas my lucky bun day You know what I mean I love her each weekday, each velvety cheek day You know what I mean My love gun's loaded and she's in my sights Big game is waiting there inside her tights, yeah Big bottom, big bottom Talk about mud flaps, my girl's got 'em Big bottom drive me out of my mind How could I leave this behind? My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo I'd like to sink her with my pink torpedo Big bottom, big bottom Talk about bum cakes, my girl's got 'em Big bottom drive me out of my mind How could I leave this behind?
You’re not Spinal crap but need to brush up. Buy it on DVD. After all, money talks and bullshit walks. Never seen it, I will be watching it tonight whilst she watches emmerdale street and corry.
