Hi, I'm new to this forum but I figured this must be the right place to ask this question.
About fifteen years ago, presumably in the Rory Bremner Show, but possibly in the Russ Abbott-show, there was a song about how men like looking at naked women and how this is exploited by the media (thankfully ). I'm guessing the performer was Steve Nallon.
I want to play that song in my Podcast, after I review 'Mrs Henderson Presents'. (My Podcast is in Dutch, by the way, and the movie won't come out in Holland until February so I've got some time. This also explains any spelling mistakes you may find in this post.)
I still recall the lyrics, which go like this
- INTRO Albert Einstein was a dramatist of note What colossal music Richard Wagner wrote Christopher Columbus: the Americans did fine Alexander Fleming was the saviour of mankind...
Now maybe they’re in heaven, or maybe they’re in Hades But one thing is for certain: they all liked… naked ladies!
Naked ladies are in every magazine After nine o’clock they’re on my tv-screen Film directors use naked ladies quite a lot Naturally it’s always most essential to the plot It’s never exploitation, ‘cause that would be quite wrong In fact, I’m using naked ladies to plug the video of this song!
‘Cause men like naked ladies, the only time they don’t is when They’re either Guardian readers, or they prefer naked gentlemen Eve gave the fruit to Adam, be thankful that he bit it The pope likes naked ladies, although he might well not admit it!
There may be more, I can’t recall after all this time. Used to have a tape lying around with the song but you know how it goes… Never was any good at labelling. I copied the audio from my VHS-recorder, it may never have been released commercially.
Can you help? Do you have a copy. Hell, if I call you and whistle the tune, can you arrange it for me? ;-) Who else can I ask?
Thanks in advance,

I might seem obvious, but have you tried contacting the BBC or Channel 4 (can't remember which it was on), as they might have an audio file of it?
I like your optimistic outlook on life, but unfortunately I don't share it
Why would they bother helping me out, just for the sake of a Podcast? Plus, apart from the lyrics I really don't know all that much about it: I'm not even sure of the year in which it was broadcast (although I am sure it was the Beeb because we can't get any other British channels over here in Holland) so I'd really need to be more specific. If I knew the artists name for sure I'd have better luck contacting them via their management, I think.

Reminds me of Al Capone's: "You can get more with a kind word and a gun, than you can with a kind word alone." (or something like that).
Back on subject, that's a hell of a tough one to get warnas. I've asked a few people and drawn blanks so far. If anyone offers up this comedy nugget (I remember it myself now you mention it), I'll let you know.
