Where to sit
I love the song "Sit On My Face" and want to see it in its original context...does anyone know which episode it appeared on in Flying Circus?
Thanks!
What's your favorite color?
Blue ... no, yelloooowwwww!
It didn't appear in the TV show. It originated on Monty Python's Contractual Obligation Album (which I urge you to get, if you haven't already). Same with Never Be Rude To An Arab.
Ant farms: cruel and barbaric, or not that bad really?
Also, the Contractual Obligation Album was released a week or two after the Hollywod Bowl show, so "Sit on My Face" and "Never Be Rude to an Arab" were completely new to the audience. Even the folks at the show didn't really hear "Sit on My Face" until the album came out, because as soon as the Pythons sang, "Sit on my face and tell me that you love me," the crowd's laughter drowned out the rest of the song.
shareFunnily enough, Python also performed "Sit On My Face" at the George Harrison tribute concert, and twenty years after the first time, mooned the audience again!! :-)
And by the way, in the Life Of Python DVD when Carol Cleveland comments about someone's bottom and their name is censored? She says Michael Palin... they must've shuffled the performers for that song from night to night, because he doesn't do it in the movie. (But if you REALLY must determine if Michael has 'the nicest botty', he sings it on the Concert For George.)
No, you're wrong. She says Graham has the nicest body. Michael never performed it.
shareThose songs are also available on the album ''Monty Python Sings'' plus there's song on it that has never been released on any of the Monty Python shows like: The Medical Love Song and I'm So Worried.
shareActually, "The Medical Love Song" and "I'm So Worried" both appeared on "The Contractual Obligation Album." The UK and other parts of the world might have gotten slightly different copies.
