"He's Jarl and he's Gier" an ORH, Geir & Jarle original

[Geir]

James bombarded us with some ukulele music and some of it rubbed off, 'cause after it ended I sat down with my ukulele and came up with this chord progression. Jarle picked up the bass and James sat down with my new mando and we played through it ad nauseam. We then recorded these instruments live (yes it is James on the MANDOLIN SOLO!!!

I added an extra uke, Jarle added drums and egg shaker, James vocals and we all did the mad backing vox .....

hope we can put some smiles on your faces with this one

here for the weekend
here for some fun
eat moose and cabbage
drink coke and rum
geir on the guitars
jarle on the drums
me on the mando
took twenty runs

sing for my supper
sing for my beer
sing for my buddies
he's jarle he's geir
sing neath the starlight
till the sun comes back again
buying tickets for next year
i'm coming here again

we're by the water
we're by the sea
there's a hole in the floor
where we can pee
big bag of sawdust
to kill the smell
had too much cabbage
can't you tell

sing for my supper
sing for my beer
sing for my buddies
he's jarle he's geir
sing neath the starlight
till the sun comes back again
buying tickets for next year
i'm coming here again

lah la lah la etc

Love it! The mandolin and ukulele are wonderful, as are the bass and drums. Great lyrics. Great vocals. A fun party song.

I wonder what James will buy first - a mandolin, a condenser mic, or a BR-80? Cabbage isn't the only thing giving him GAS.

definately - I'm thinking feather headresses and sequinned bras but I think James forgot to pack them.

Sounds like you are having one hellova party guys - fabulous song!

I'm rather partial to steamed cabbage btw  

This takes me back - when I was a teenager a sang in Bergen and Oslo . . .

Europop! and mad as a bag of frogs.

I'm really impressed with Geir's toilet. It's a thing of beautifiul simplicity - I was just extolling it's virtues today .....
