Kuyt Song/Verse

[royzared]

You only use the first name
You aint seen nothing like the mighty EMLYN.

[Craig_H]

Thanks.

I was only alive for 2 months of the 70s

Thats Emlyn Hughes' song..

Ah, makes sense then.

[royzared]

Emlyn was Mr. Liverpool at the time,the Kop adored him,he showed guts and an out and out will to win.Crazy Horse screaming towards the Kop,ball at feet was a sight to behold.I'm sorry man but it;s his song.

[Morph]

But i it's never sung again it will slowly be forgotten about, at least if it was sang about Kuyt it would be keeping the song going, and people would in turn remember Emlyn.

However it his song, and maybe some would feel better if Kuyt earned the right to have it sung about him.

[royzared]

Yeh cool Morph. I can live with that,it is a great song.thankyou Mr Dylan.
Could be over reacting a bit,just brought back some great memories

What a ****ing dumbass. I had no ****ing clue it was from that Quinn the Eskimo song. I was wondering what the **** it was going on about in the first two lines

the cabbage?

[Morph]

yer it's over t'other side - Cabbage Hall to give it it's proper name

[Howard_lfc]

It's my watering hole before the game too.

It's on on Breck Road - near the junction with Priory Road (almost next to Georgesons Motors). You can see it from the old Liverpool Supporters Club.

[Steve]

Yes, and there's been a debate of sorts, as to whether or not 'mighty dirk kuyt' scans better, or not.

Emlyn Hughes = 3 syllables.
Dirk Kuyt = 2 syllables.
Mighty Dirk Kuyt = 4 syllables.

Hence the confusion

Mighty Emlyn = 4 syllables.

if that helps with your confusion.

[Craig_H]

Mighty Emlyn = 4 syllables.

if that helps with your confusion.

I'm confused about the confusion.

As an old timer..........

The song "Mighty Quinn" was a hit round about '65 for a group called Manfred Mann (who covered a lot of Dylan stuff), It was this hit coupled with the emergence of Crazy Horse that was the birth of the Mighty Emlyn song

Ok history lesson over ............please all turn to page 101 of your maths book
