England World Cup Bid 2018/22 backing instrumentally

When we did this tune about 4 or 5 years ago, we weren't sure where to place it.
The World Cup Bid came along, and I kept in the back of my mind figuring a way to get footage and buils a video.

Then the official video came along, and just to see I dubbed it over...
First I did the instrumental...
It's a little bit spooky...

backing the Bid for England 2018/22 World Cup Vocally

When we did this tune about 4 or 5 years ago, we weren't sure where to place it.
The World Cup Bid came along, and I kept in the back of my mind figuring a way to get footage and buils a video.

Then the official video came along, and just to see I dubbed it over...
The vocal miz was dubed after the instrumental mix turned out pretty good...
It too is a little bit spooky...

Jermaine the Pain



What can I say about Jermaine Defoe?

He scores a brace for England, and now he's doing a Robin Hood! What a cheek!

I am really happy for him. He's got a nice expensive lawyer who has a hearty reputation for handling footballers' motoring issues and whooping ass at the nick...

... regardless of his motoring conviction history, if that's what it takes for the disproportionate number of stop and searches performed on black British people to be brought to book then I really hope the police force are proper chastised.

Frankly, I don't believe this incident will make much difference to the life of the average black British man, but maybe every little helps. Anyway, I think Mr. Defoe has the right to do what he can to be treated according to proper behaviour. After all the police should uphold the rules in both directions.

supposedly being a tea-leafing hoodie, I wondered if the cheshire police would be humiliated, but it seems not. Victor, if you ever read this, I would love to know what happened in the end.

Interestingly though, just look at the striking lack of similarity between a crutch, often used by people with leg injuries, and a gun, typically associated with robbers and jewel thieves...
Left is actually what a crutch looks like, some look a little different, but as far as we know only in the Day of the Jackal does a crutch become a gun.


Right is actually what a handgun looks like. Note how you wouldn't expect to hobble about on one.


Anyway, for those who can't afford it, and until things change...
Here's some thoughts on how to help the police do their job properly:
  • Check out urban 75s for a guide on what to do when challenged by the police. it is important to be aware of your rights.
  • Remember: the police do this for a living, they should know the routine off by heart, so
  • they must be aware of what they can and can't do, and
  • also know what you can and can't do, so
  • they automatically have an advantage. After all, all we want to do is live our lives, and have as little to do with officialdom as possible, but in this case that means knowing what the rules of the situation are.
