Sexy pikchur right? So it's the start of the season and material on the team lies somewhere between scarce and fuck all. I have had to put my Sports Journalist of the Year sash back on and really ask the team some hard hiting questions like what is their favourite song and why?
Mr Cool
Favourite song: Jai Ho - Pussycat Dolls
Why: At the risk of totally falling into a stereotype, I am Indian and I LOVE Bollywood. I just really get into it and am in total awe of some of the actors like Anupam Kher and Brahmanandam(Ed: adingdong Lolz). When a song like this comes along and I can wear a bindi and just dance it's like nothing matters. Nobody can tease my ears or my ice cold persona. I'm not Mr Cool I become just a fan of traditional dance and song where my spirit can run free and nobody will get discounted naan ovens... NOBODY!
Coach Geoff Werner
Favourite song: Buses & trains - Bachelor Girl
Why: When this song came out I had just got back from Daydream Island (aka George's abs) and it just struck me as my song. It was 1998 and this was my jam. I could go and dance in the clubs (I had just turned 18) or sit down with a white wine spritzer and just relax. The lyrics are total amazeballs too! "I walked under a bus...", it just reminds me of the time I hit a wombat in my VL. Plus the guy with glasses was a total fox!
Nick Deluca
Favourite song: The Corrs - Runaway
Why: I just love Irish music. The tin whistle and angelic voices. There is nothing better than slipping into a bubble bath with a glass of wine, some scented candles but I can never be fully relaxed until The Corrs is on. Runaway is obviously my favourite and started my love affiar with them some 15 years ago. Daniel always joked about wanting to do a few of the sisters but I just wanted to sit down with my walkman on, play with my Tamagotchi and read my Dolly magazine.
Brendan Dowd
Favourite song: Leonardo's Bride - Even When I'm Sleeping
Why: Best. Song. EVER! That is all. How can you not like your celebrity doppelganger?
Craig Hutchinson
Favourite song: Taxiride - Get Set
Why: When Taxiride first came out I was going through my rebellious phase. I was really mucking up at home doing the wrong thing. If I got told to eat my vegetables I'd eat everything except tomato and then say it's a fruit. You didn't tell me to eat my vegetables and fruit! I was quite wicked. When my drama mentor said that doing a one man version of Annie Get Your Gun was the most idiotic idea ever, I went and did a matinee session that was Annie Get Your Gun vs Cats where I chopped up the scenes and did them back to back. Fergus and Quincy said it was the best version they'd ever seen. After that, I put on my brown leather jacket with the velour elbow patches and walked out of the Year 8 quad singing Get Set. Great song!
Chris Hillard
Favourite song: Sheena Easton - Morning Train (9 to 5)
Why: I work all the time. 25 hours a day. 8 days a week. 53 weeks a year. I've often wondered what it would be like to work the simple hours. I think it would be like this film clip. Bicycles and steam trains. Can I finish now, it's 5pm and I don't knock off until 1am tomorrow?
Frank
Favourite song: Human Nature - Don't Say Goodbye
Why: Can I qualify this? I don't actually like, in fact I think it sounds terrible. The reason I have nominated it is because I nailed 6 birds at once due to this. I got a 7-some because of Human Nature. Why wouldn't I like it when I FUCKING LOVE IT!!!!!!!!
Wow, what an eclectic taste! Maybe one of them can be our anthem for the year?
