    It's a bit scary how much info you can find out about anyone using the net. I write for the local paper and a lot of my details are readily available to anyone

    I wouldn't call Sam sweet at his age! The little ones are kinda cute though.

    Nope. The line is "Father, Son and Fergal Close. I think SOMEONE tried to change it to "Colm, Willie, Fergal Close" Twas about as succesful as his raven idea though...

    It could happen... Lol all i was saying was that those were the original (and thus, by definition best) lyric-edits. In fact, from the same era as [caps]DIEDIEDIEDIELIVELIVELIVELIVESEXSEXSEXSEXMOREMOREMOREMORE[/caps]...

    I'll never forget my very first CTYI ever, I was a commuter and my dad was meant to pick me up after the last disco. He arrived early and heard that from all the way across the parking lot. Lot of explaining for a 12 year old to do with a father as strict as mine... :rolleyes:

    Well, the MOREMOREMOREMORE bit probably has its roots in Rocky Horror *refers people to Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch Me...*

    yah i noticed the similarity there myself, though i'd say the whole chant probably came about as one thing, do the CTYs do it?

    i was feeling done in
    couldnt win
    i'd only ever kissed before.....(you mean she: uhuhuh)
    i thought theres no use getting
    into heavy petting
    it only leads to trouble...and seat wetting

    now all i want to know
    is how to go
    i've tasted blood and i want more (more more more more)
    i'll put up no resistance
    i want to stay the distance
    i've got an itch to scratch
    i need assistance


    been listening to that song again recently :)

    yes, yes they do, that's where it comes from.
    at the first ever CTY disco it was played as the last song (it was in the charts at the time) and it became a tradition, or so the story goes

    Ummm, it was in the charts in 1972... CTYI was 10 last year, or the year before - go figure... *puzzled*

    Yes Neil, that be the song..

    really, my bad, sorry

    edit: quick google for "DIE-DIE-DIE-DIE-LIVE-LIVE-LIVE-LIVE-SEX-SEX-SEX-SEX-MORE-MORE-MORE-MORE!" reveals that yes, the yanks do chant that and also that CTY has far more student websites than CTYI
