Tico scoffs:

Another track that crossed the line of plagerism, apparently. I don't know how it happened, but apparently there was a few songs in the 'original' that we did. A bit peeved, I re-did it - now listen to it. It's wonderful. I even took a few dozen online lessons in Turkish to come up with the best limericks and audible noises in said language. It was the right thing to do as I am a big fan of kebabs and carpet.

If I were to re-call correctly, Bri did the original lead guitar on this (I did the brilliant riff-age), but he couldn't get time away from his broken biscuit stall so I had to re-record his guitar and I made it much, much better. Even he asked 'that's not me, is it?' when I played it back to him. No, Bri. No.

Bri Jnr. all shook-up says:

Back to the well of Wikipedia (or is it the goblet of Google?) in order to find lyrical inspiration from another language, Tico's take on my Bulgarian boppers is a tasty Turkish delight. The chord sequence is exotic, the guitar solo (to which I contributed a few significant notes) is dramatic and Tico's disembodied wailing and Honey Monster impressions really take you on a mind-bending trip across the Mediterranean. Tickets please!
