Sh-Sh-Sh-Sh-Sh-Shirehorses - WWWWHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Advantages: funny lyrics, poor/funny music
Disadvantages: poor/funny music

Mark and Lard have become my idols over a period of months, and when I discovered that the Shirehorses was actually their band, and not an ongoing joke, I thought I would have to buy and see what was what. The band line-up is: Mark, Lard, The Dark Prince and Dick ‘The buttocks’ Scruttock. Right….. Just looking at the track titles, you know that this is one album to not take seriously. I will write it out later. Well, I would ...
...type it out later from now. My time, not reading time. Forget it, here it is; If you tolerate the p*ss - Manic Street Sweepers No big sizes - Radioshed Ars*holes - Robbie and William Why is it always Dairy Lea - Dave Lee Travisty F*cking around - Dave Lee Travisty Pardon? - Indecipherable Boys Quorn Medley - Status Quorn Bellow - Foreplay A roll with it - Po Fasis Horny - Chocolate Mousse Tea Feel like Sh*te - Doofergrass Country Spouse ...

They Came, They Saw, They Cantered.....

Advantages: Quite Funny in Places
Disadvantages: Runs out of appeal very Quickly, I really want to turn it off now

...Album in The World Ever.....ever, Our Kid Eh promised to be just as comical. For anyone who is unaware of the Shirehorses, they are of course Radio 1’s very own Mark and Lard along with The Dark prince and Dick “The Buttocks” Scruttock. The comedy duo basically take well known songs and have a laugh with them, changing the lyrics into a comedy song but Keeping the music almost exactly the same. So as well as changing the lyrics of the songs they ...

Our Kid Eh?

Advantages: Funny lyrics
Disadvantages: After one play, it's boring

I first bought this when it was first released in 2001/2 (I can't remember) and I gave it the quick once-through before it ended up on the eternal abyss of my 'music-shelf.' Just to clarify, I operate a music system, the good albums stay in an ever-increasing pile near my stereo. Now, what set's The Shirehorses apart from other bands? Firstly, it includes BBC Radio 1's favourites Mark & Lard - combined with the insanely monnikered 'The Dark Horse' ...
...rather low quality, of The Shirehorses performing at "The Enormodome", if that is indeed a real place. You get 'A Roll With It', 'Feel Like Sh***' and 'Country Spouse.' The first song on the CD is 'If You Tolerate This Pi**' which is by the 'Manic Street Sweepers.' As you can guess, this is a parody of the hit single 'If You Tolerate This...' by the Rock band 'Manic St. Preachers.' The song starts well, but trails off near the end and only manages ...
