While they're not "bad" songs as such, I really don't enjoy much of the band's Excalibur pieces; however, my least favourite FC song has to be "London River"... what were they thinking of?

Rosie It's awful  No No sorry I won't have it... I'll allow you to say its twee... but not that its awful! Remember when Skirky James and band - Songs From the Blue House -recorded it for Cancer Research UK? No its a great song and not awful! |

Put a Sock In It.... Sorry, that's for the song from The Five Seasons as my pick, and not a reprimand Oh Rob. We have found the point where we disagree. Not really a Fairport song I'll grant you but I like it none the less. Closer to some of what RT was doing at the time, albeit not in his league. Catchy as hell though (despite the mysogyny). |

I think we have disagreed before. I'll grant you the rockier aspect of it but I guess for me what you say is the reason why-not really a Fairport song IMHO |

What is it with people not liking this song? It was one of my candidates for a favourite song by a non-member! Same for me!!! |

If I had an issue with the song it would be that it is a bit cliched, personally it always puts a smile on my face but I like Huw and Tony's arrangement. I must listen to that album I haven't listen to it in ages. |

And a great bass line. In fact I think its one of the better tracks from a lacklustre album. |

Night Time Girl is particularly awful.
Jules
I agree and particularly because it interrupts the flow of the album. Maybe if it was on Rosie alongside Hungarian Rhapsody or Me With You it wouldn't seem quite so bad? |

Hmmm, is Festival Bell worse than that Uke thing? Festival Bell I think, by a short head.
