Thread Name: What 'serious' song do you giggle through?
Subject: RE: What 'serious' song do you giggle through?
Hard to giggle when you're singing it.

"Bay of Biscay" and I don't dare look at Jeri even if she's singing harmony -- "And there she spied her Willie standing..."

Uh huh. Jeri and I were standing in my living room one day singing it and we each broke up at the same time. She's written a parody ("My willie lies below my belly") but I don't know if it's ever been finished. We sang part of it at Barry Finn's party back in November of 2000.

And lately (meaning the past year) I have to sing on automatic (i.e. not think about) the line in Tom Lewis' "Sailor's Prayer" -- "And Judy Lee upon my knee / And in my ear a-lyin" ("And in my ear a lion" -- what an image!)
