Amyl Nitrate's song


I was just wondering does anybody know what the song where Amyl goes up and sings and dances in a british gladiator outfit is called? Sorry for my really bad description.

reply

Rule Britannia, was the song.

reply

It's by Suzi Pinns.

does anyone have any idea where I can find and download the song? I have tryed limewire but it's not there :(

reply

Here's a crazy idea - why don't you just buy the soundtrack? It's in print, it can be ordered!!

reply

Before I got the soundtrack, I found that song on Limewire (Just keep repeating your search for "Suzi Pinns" until you get it)

She's not dressed as a gladiator but as Britannia, "a female personification of Britain", the subject of the song she's singing - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Britannia.

This figure used to be on the reverse side of the old one penny coin (before decimalisation in 1972) and would be very familiar to British people of the time. http://www.coinnews.net/2008/01/28/britannia-to-disappear-from-british -coins-3883/

I used to want to change the world. Now I just want to leave the room with a little dignity.

Decimalization was in 1971, not 1972. Monday February 15th, to be precise.

reply

Quite right. I wonder where I got 1972 from.

Still on the back of 50p.
