I find it hard to imagine how anyone could fail to recognise that the existence of a good parody is very positive thing for a song, not something that should be objected to or interfered with.

Any songwriter would recognise that. The people who deal with copyright issues are a strange bunch.

Sadly the sound to some of their parodies seems to have been removed for copyright reasons :-( They are good though and the ones with sound are great

Thanks for sticking this up Noreen, I already put a link to it a BS thread on vaccinations,

It's a very skilful set of words. And those little girls really put them over well. Most efforts at singing Hallelujah don't manage the tricky bits of the tune as well as they do.

Not the first parody of Hallelujah, but a good one - there was a thread on them not long ago?

Love the Marsh family! They have several songs of theirs on youtube - some feature the whole family, maw, paw and 4 weans (plus sometimes the dug!).
Great use of lockdown time.

Have the New Jab
(The Marsh family)


I heard there was a rumour shared
That COVID vaccines were unprepared
Or brewed to really censor and control you
Well it goes like this: a fourth or fifth
Of people might all fall for this
They’re thinking of opposing having new jabs

Have the new jab, have the new jab,
have the new jab, have the new jab.

Well the science is strong and they’ve yielded proof
You won’t grow scales or camel’s hoofs
They duly checked with trials and then approved them
It’s biological warfare
They broke all records but still took care
So please do not refuse to have the new jab
Have the new jab…

Well maybe we all get misled
We see this post or Whatsapp thread
They use conspiracy theories just to fool you
It’s not needle pricks to be scared about
It’s the ones who put this nonsense out
It’s absurd and it’s mistaken- have the new jab!
Have the new jab…

Maybe there’s a plan above
To implant things into our blood
But why on earth would Bill Gates want to rule you?
And its NOT a trick to get you spayed,
It doesn’t change our DNA
It’s a COVID-fighting weapon, have the new jab!
Have the new jab…

Well there ARE some times we make a choice
A personal view, a protest voice
But other times we’re part of something greater
So remember this ain’t just for you
Your jab’s protecting others too
And every breath we save is Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

(With thanks to Leonard Cohen.)
