Kareoke Challenge!

Kareoke Challenge

This weeks challenge is to re-write the lyrics to one of the songs on the kareoke machine, that was provided by Big Brother yesterday, so that they are appropriate to the Big Brother Hollow Treehouse, its treehousemates, other members of the forum and Ceroc/MJ in general.

A list of the songs has been provided below:

Let's get loud
Sex Bomb
Get the Party started
Mustang Sally
Dance the night away
Toxic
Slave for you
Sweet dreams my LA ex
Mack the Knife
All that Jazz
Dancing in the moonlight
Wade in the Water
Hero
That don't impress me much
Have you met Miss Jones
Big Bad Leroy brown
Tailfeather
Can't get you out of my head
She Bangs
Beyond the sea

This must be a group effort

(I'm assuming that you, again, whish to gamble 50% of your weekly rations...)

Must hang Sally
Guess she's gonna swing when the door come down
Must hang Sally, now baby
Guess she's gonna swing when the door comes down
She's been robbing all over town
It'll slow her down, when she's under ground....

(Verse anyone?)

[Pammy]

BEYOND THE TREE...

Some fair, inside our tree,
A flair would help us see.
Andy's used our candles for cucumbers,
And our jars of squins, have gone mouldy.... :tears:

By the door, of the Hollow tree,
Bardsey's waiting with glee.
Oh how she'd sigh for a great big pie,
filled with smurf in a nice shortcrust pastry. :yum:

Lifes hard beyond the sters, it’s as clear as Andy's moon. :wink:
DS throws his weight about,
No doubt we'll plead our certain doom.

Greg bleets, around the floor,
We’ll drink the pimms from our store.
Happy we’ll be inside our tree,
So long as we're dancing.
....Some more dancing....
....Lots of dancing....

Anyone know a good lyrics website that doesn't throw a load of pop-up ads at you? :confused:

[To Sweet Dreams My L A Ex
If I were in your shoes
I'd dance more before you shout
Can't you stop playing that record again
Or find somebody who likes to lark about
Andy, If I were in your shoes
I'd worry about your blouse
I've had my say and now its your turn
To sweep out the Hollow Tree House.

[Bardsey]

BEYOND THE TREE...



That is just fantastic...........much better than my piddling effort. Well done Pamster......you should def get us points for that! :hug: :kiss:

That's because Trampy was in there so long, he needs to give the dust time to settle :wink:

[Dance Demon]

THAT song......

Here comes that bloody song again
I'ts really doing in my brain
I'd like us to be Maverick free
to give us back our sanity

(chorus)
just want to throw that disc away
or scratch it so it cannot play
and then the future will be bright
when this song is nowhere in sight

And if no-one plays it
we will never have to go through hell
that would be swell
But if it should resurface
We can smash it, I think a brick
Should do the trick

(chorus)
then we can dance the night away
to songs we want DJs to play
Each night will be so full of fun
Because that bloody song has gone
(repeat last chorus)

Always liked the latin tracks ....so thought I'd mutilate HERO...


Let me play BB(whispered)

Would you evict
If you had to evict?
Would you vote
And never look back?
Would you cry
If you got a forfeit?
Could you play BB tonight?

Would you tremble
If Davina got cross?
Would you laugh
If someone ate your pet?
Now, would you rat
In the diary room?
Could you play BB tonight?

You can sip our champers baby
You can soak in our jacuz
We can Treasure Hunt together
You can play BB with me.

Would you swear
If you saw Andy's G-string?
Can you share
with a smurf and a sheep?
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care - we'll dance tonight!

You can sip our champers baby
You can soak in our jacuz
We can Treasure Hunt together
You can play BB with me.

Oh, I just wanna dance now
I just wanna dance now
Oh yeah.
Am I deprived of sleep?
Have I lost my mind?
Well, I don't care - we'll dance tonight!

You can sip our champers baby
You can soak in our jacuz
We can Treasure Hunt together
You can play BB with me.

You can sip our champers baby
You can soak in our jacuz
We can Treasure Hunt together
You can play BB with me.
You can play BB with me.

MAD, MAD HOLLOW CROWD

Well the inside of the Hollow Tree,
Contains the glammest bunch of clowns.
And if you go in there you better just be scared,
of Bardsey and her crowd.

Now Andy, oh he's muddled,
You see he stands 'bout five foot eight.
All the downsouth dancers call him "sexy groover",
All the scots just call him "great".

And they're mad, mad, the Hollow crowd,
the loudest bunch in the dancing land.
louder than JBs decks,
keener than a full-on grince.

Now Pammy, oh she's tarty,
& she likes those sequined clothes.
And she loves to wave her jars of squins,
Under every fellas nose.
They've got Gordons wit and humour,
They've got Diva's red kecks too,
They've got Bardsey pinching bums for fun,
They've got DS in the loo.

And they're mad, mad, the Hollow crowd,
the loudest bunch in the dancing land.
louder than JBs decks,
keener than a full-on grince.

Now everyone started itchin' low,
Turned out Greg'd brought in lice.
And in our hollow tree,
Things can get a wee bit cosy,
so they needed sortin' in a trice.
Well Bardsey cast her eyes upon him,
And her clippers soon emerged,
'Cause poor old Sheepy would be stressin'
with messin with the strife of Bardseys itching curls.

And they're mad, mad, the Hollow crowd,
the loudest bunch in the dancing land.
louder than JBs decks,
keener than a full-on grince.

Well that girl she took to shearing,
And when Greg emerged from the door,
Poor Sheepy looked like a ball of fuzzle,
With all of his modesty shawn.....

[Bardsey]

MAD, MAD HOLLOW CROWD



:rofl: :rofl: :clap: :worthy: :worthy: :clap:

You are just SOOOOOO funny! Well done, that is brilliant, I don't know how you think them up (or have the time!) :flower: :kiss: :hug:

[Pammy]

(or have the time!)

Time? :what: Time, hmmmm, that reminds me of something.... :confused: on the tip of my tongue. Time.... oh yes, work. :eek: Work! :tears: WORK!!! ; must do some! :(

Ooops! :blush: :whistle:

[DangerousCurves]

Do we have to chose one of the re-written songs and put it forward as our final effort?

If so, I chose the "leroy brown" re-write "Mad, Mad Hollow Crowd" ... it scans perfectly, and even has a story line!!!! :worthy: :worthy: :worthy:

You have to choose one song whose lyrics are most appropriate and best fit in with the lyrics of the original song from which it was derrived (by tomorrow lunchtime).

Any additional songs may win you bonus prizes :wink:

Thought Beyond the Tree was great, but MAD, MAD HOLLOW CROWD gets my vote. Well done Pam - two superb rewrites :clap: :clap: :worthy: :worthy:

BB, can we put Beyond the Tree through as a bonus?

[DangerousCurves]

There's only three of us that have chosen...but its lunchitme!

So in absence of dissent - we put forward Pammy's MAD MAD HOLLOW CROWD as our champion....with all the others in fat brown envelope in the hope of a few bonus prizes....

ohhhhh - and do we get to keep the Kareoke Machine - please, please pretty-please!???

[Big Brother]

Big Brother Hollow Treehousemates, this is Big Brother.

Congratulations on the successful completion of the Karaoke challenge - your new version of Bad Bad Leroy Brown, Mad Mad Hollow Crowd, was both entertaining and (relatively) accurate.

150% of your weekly rations will be delivered first thing in the morning.

Bonus tracks that have been taken into consideration and awarded prizes for were:
Beyond the tree
The re-write of That Song
The re-write of Hero

Your mystery prizes for these are respectively:
A large box of sparkly dressing-up clothes
A small hamper containing four bottles of wine (two white, two red), twelve bottles of beer, two large bars of chocolate, a jar of pickled onions and some extra-strong mints.
A kitten

The Karaoke Machine will be removed during the night.

It has come to the time again for you to PM nominations for evictees and post reasons for same in the Diary room. Please do so by the end of the week.

[Pammy]

I'm so excited, I think I'll ask Loungie to do a re-mix of the original :wink:

Thanks for bringing that to my attention, I hadn't seen that post. Pickled Onion parties???? :confused: What do you do at them then (must've forgotten, age thing, y'know how it is). Is it like a keys in the middle party, but instead you put your onion? :innocent:

[Bardsey]

Is it like a keys in the middle party, but instead you put your onion? :innocent:

Ah yes, but you have to know your onions first :whistle:
