another one for the 'songs that sound like B&S songs' file. there was a song being played during the band changes in the evening session tent which had the chorus 'who would fall in love with a chicken with his head cut off'. you can sing The Model over the top and the melody is very similar also. if anybody can tell me what this song is i'd be most grateful.
the song in question is Chicken With Its Head Cut Off (!) by the luvverly Magnetic Fields. try as i might, i can't hear any similarity between it and The Model, but we may be able to blame that on the possibly inaccurate renditions of both tunes going around in my head as i type. no T&F pranks in london for me this weekend, instead i'm off to cork. hooray for cork! it's got a wildlife park with lemurs and capybaras and oryxes (who are extinct, but no-one seems to have told these oryxes). and other things. can't wait .... rener ===== "Those are my principles.
