Hank? Who's Hank?

Oh, so you didn't know where the song was from originally? It's from The Man Who Knew Too Much. There is a scene in the film in which Jo (Doris Day) sings this song while dressing up for a dinner, and her little son Hank starts to sing along... Well, never mind. The film's not half bad, though - despite all that singing.

Alrighty with some effort of a diskette, patience waiting for the dang thing to copy to the school's computer here is my take on Queensryche song Hand on Heart Part 1, divided song into two parts, thanks to Tiki for hosting part 1. Then part 2 whenever I get it hosted.

Queensryche- Hand on Heart

[DannyMc252]

I need a microphone..

Well... I've decided to share a nice (<-- sarcasm) Norwegian song with you all.

This is the actual song by Ole Paus:
I en sofa fra IKEA
(At the bottom of the post, you'll find my version)


Just a little note that must be said. The song is meant as a funny review of the movies created by the Norwegian film-makers Vam & Vennerød. They always made dark movies with almost identical plot-lines. So the song could be any movie made by them

The lyrics:
I en sofa fra IKEA sitter far og denger mor.
Det er TV-kveld og mor har sølt litt øl på stuens bord.
Så nå banner far og denger mor og bruker tabu ord.

I en sofa fra IKEA sitter mor og lugger far.
I svære dotter river mor ut alt det håret som han har.
Så går far på karatekurs, og mor går på bar.

I en sofa fra IKEA sitter far og denger mor.
Far blir sterk når far blir sint og
far blir sinna når han tror
at hans kone driver hor
med sjefen sin på hans kontor.

I en sofa fra IKEA sitter mor og klorer far.
Og så hyler de og river av de klærne som de har.
og så gjør de sånn som gjør at mor blir mor og far blir far.

I en sofa fra IKEA ligger mor og mor er død.
Så kommer barna på barnehjem og far på vann og brød.
Det var dagens lille solstreif, hilsen Vam og Vennerød.

Translation:
(I know... it sucks... )
In a sofa from IKEA sits dad and beats mom.
It is TV-night and mom has spilt some beer on the table.
So now dad is cursing and beating mom and uses foul language.

In a sofa from IKEA sits mom and tugs the hair of dad.
In huge balls mom is tearing out all the hair that he has.
Thus dad go to learn karate, and mom goes to a bar.

In a sofa from IKEA sits dad and beats mom.
Dad gets strong when dad gets mad and
dad gets mad when he thinks
that his wife is having sex
with her boss inside his office.

In a sofa from IKEA sits mom and claws up dad.
And then they scream and tears off those clothes they have.
And then they do the thing that makes mom become mom and dad become dad.

In a sofa from IKEA lies mom and mom is dead.
So the kids are sent away and dad goes to jail.
This was today's sunshine story, greetings Vam & Vennerød.


Now then...
Here's my attempt at the song
(Unfortunately, I can't record anything over 1 minute, so the last verse isn't in my version.)

Hey, I remember that song! Not bad. The only thing that's missing is the guitar...

Edit: You wouldn't be able to do Påsketur by Øystein Sunde by any chance? That one had our entire class baffled (including our teacher, actually). It's just so damn fast.

I may have to do a bit of The Specials action...

[Kon-Tiki]

Give Baggy Trousers a try. Bet you can't keep up with that one

[PrejudiceSucks]

I think that Friday Night/Saturday morning or Racist Friend would be easier...
