'Maybe he just shouts out random words. Like hippopotamus'
More on Van's shouted word in Bright Side Of The Road. It's 'Cricket!' says Chris in Edinburgh. Paddy Mackin heard of a man who was so tight he could light a fag in his pocket.
More on Van's shouted word in Bright Side Of The Road. It's 'Cricket!' says Chris in Edinburgh. Jimmy in Newry says 'Cricket' is the nickname of the harmonica player on the song. Davy , who played in bands in Belfast in the 60s, says Van shouts 'Pick It!' and it's an old skiffle term for the guitarist to play a solo. Why would a listener put 'F.A.B' after a request for a 'an aul Humperdinck song'? Paddy Mackin once heard of a man who was so tight he could light a fag in his pocket. Chris Farlowe is still a brilliant performer, listeners agree. Music from The Searchers, Bobby Vee, The Judds, Dave Clark Five and more.
