I have changed this
Anyone know anything about her? She released possibly the first BHA single ("Seagulls") back in 1979 to celebrate the promotion to the old Div 1. I have it on CDR (I recorded it from the original vinyl 7" which a mate loaned me a few years back). It's a female voice, local accent, over an old Wurlitzer organ.
The lyrics:
I live near a football ground, Albion is her name.
I tell you it's almost hell when they play a game.
Saturday's are all the same, football fans about
And when you pass them in the street
This is what they shout:
Chorus
Seagulls, Seagulls.
They'll play on and on.
Seagulls, Seagulls.
Forever playing strong.
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
We are the Brighton North Stand!
Other teams supporters may as well go home
While in the North Stand, Albion sing: "You'll never walk alone"
And you could be in Timbuktoo and still know when they score.
'Coz it's enough to deafen you
When you hear that roar:
Chorus
And now they've finally made it, we're in Division 1
Brighton and Hove Albion have only just begun.
So when somebody asks "What team do you support" (Seagulls!)
Stand up pround and sing out loud
And shout this in retort!
Chorus
Google searches draw a complete blank!
