Helmut83 You know, there is a connection. There's something called the enteric nervous system in the human gut. Something to think about...

I suspected it all along!
Although now that I think about it, my mother's apple crumble has several ingredients other than apple, and it's usually served with milk cream, so...

ok, this one isn't an ELO song, but it is inspired by a recent post with apologies to Roy Wood and to queenofthehours mum ... Look out! look out! your Momma will shout when she sees my spider jump about Spidy hangs onto me and she really goes dropping all the way down to her toes See my spider jump Such a lazy slump and then Momma will shout as the chorus comes about every one you meet coming down the street is dancing to the beat Just to see my spidy jump!

It doesn't fit the rhythm or structure of the song exactly, but it is based off The Diary of Horace Wimp. Had a scary moment with a wasp (I am very severely EXTREMELY terrified of them) a couple months ago & recounted it to my sister...it went a little bit like so: Attachment Deleted

Here's a lyric rewrite about an internal problem that plagued our favourite band.
As we all know (well, we do now), Bev is so irresistibly attractive to the ladies that the other band members must have been very much in his shadow, and deeply resented seeing him getting all the fangirl attention. But wise Bev will have come up with a solution "so fine", it had to be immortalised in a lyric. Here is The Diary Of Bev Bevan.
To be sung to the tune of The Diary Of Horace Wimp.
Monday: Hot again, today - He'd be in trouble when they saw he was sexy. They'd want to throw him out of the bus.
Tuesday: "Bev, this is so sad, We never get the girls - it's you they care for. And now we can't take much more! Help us out?"
Chorus (Bev said:) "Don't be afraid, Just log on the forum. And see, amidst their grumbling and shovelling, They give voice to their love - It's Horace Wimp's, the drooling's rife, Log on and find some friends for life, Me, I'm banned (from sheer demand!) But you could make some date night plans.
You can do it! Come on, bandmates!"
Wednesday: Bandmates read the posts, "These are gold, and these are very witty. They've poured out all their love! They've got their faves, oh-oh..." "Ask for forum dates!" (said Bev,) "A carafe full of cheap, tomorrow evening." The band were reeling: "They won't say yes! No way..."
Chorus (Bev said:) "Don't be afraid, Just log on the forum. And see, amidst the muddling and Jungle-ing, There's the ELO love. It's Horace Wimp's - there's sometimes strife - But soon you'll find that's forum life. Lurking's banned! Join their gang And you will meet your lifelong fans."
("You can do it! And you, Richard!")
Friday "Bandmates, this is it," (said Bev) "Just ask the girls on a Summer Night Safari. When they say "Tag me!", do it, guys, woo-hoo!"
Sunday Everybody starts to search: "Where is that special one who says she'll become my wife, For the rest of my life? Here she is!"
Chorus (Bev said:) "Don't be afraid, Just log on the forum. You'll see, amid their travelling and trousering, They need ELO love, It's Horace Wimp's, a way of life - Log on and find a future wife. Be a man, lean and tanned (like me!) And you will have your date nights planned...
... on MON-day, TUES-day, WEDNES-day, THURS-day.. FRI-day, SUN-day..."

I am (almost) speechless with mirth and admiration, Grroosss is completely right, this is surely the forum anthem? vlogdance, you're on FIRE!

Congratulations, vlogdance. It's a work of pure genius! Agree with me ninja twiin unomusette. Perfect song for the forum. Describes what goes on here well. "And see, amidst their grumbling and shoveling"

Ooh, I’m liking this idea of having it be the forum anthem! Perhaps we should mandate that members learn it in order to join
