Help Me Identify These Two Songs (if they exist!) - Bar Italia Forum

[Archive]

Posted by Ian
Somewhere in the back of my mind, two mystery songs have just cropped up. I could, of course, be imagining this but here we go:

• The first contains the lyrics "Take Me To Tinsley Viaduct"
• The second was possibly performed as part of a radio session and mentions the snooker player Steve Davis

These could just be improvised lyrics from early performances of songs that we know. It looks like the forum search box isn't working at all now, even with quotation marks 

Anyone?

Update: The BBC claims that they performed a song entitled "I Wanna Be Steve Davis" at Glastonbury in 1994.

Ah, thank you. That's where I heard about it. So it likely doesn't exist.

I am just listening to the Glastonbury 1994 recording, no mentions of Steve Davis so far...

Is it a pun on The Ramones' I Wanna Be Sedated?!
