Meaningless Songs in Very High Voices

On 22 December 2009, Robin Gibb’s 60th birthday, I posted a clip of the HeeBeeGeeBees (English comedians Angus Deayton, Michael Fenton-Stevens and Philip Pope) singing their brilliant, merciless parody of the Bee Gees, “Meaningless Songs in Very High Voices”. That clip was sound-only. Clever Phil Parker has found a clip of them performing the song live in Sweden so now you can enjoy the visuals plus an intro in Swedish. I am a Bee Gees fan – yes, I am, out and unashamed – but can see that they are mockable. All together now:

The world is very very large

And butter is better than marge

And love is better than hate.

The world is very very big

And bacon comes from a pig

But it’s you I really want on my plate.
