Its all rock n' roll to me
Posted by Andy Lynes on 26 September 2008 - 2:51pm.
In a shameless steal from Radcliffe and Maconie, can the Word massive come up with the most unlikely subjects to preface with the phrase "rock n' roll" and possibly include in the lyrics of an unreconstructed hard rockin' song e.g.
I've got a rock n' roll cheese iron,
That's gonna take a plug outta you,
Rock n' roll cheese iron,
Samplin' Stilton and Cheddar all day through.
