Hi choir singers,

Here are some tracks to sing along to... enjoy! Do see if you can learn the words off by heart, because it'll make you feel so much more confident not to have to stare at the screen when you're singing.

Year 1 and 2 - Music Hall and the music of the East End

 
Our brilliant Year 1 and 2 classes have exploring the musical history of our own area of London, singing brilliant Music Hall songs. Here's some words you can use for singing along at home....
 
Year 1 - Daisy, Daisy
 
Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do.
I'm half crazy all for the love of you.
It won't be a stylish marriage,
I can't afford a carriage.
But you'll look sweet,
Upon the seat,
Of a bicycle made for two.

 

Year 1 and 2 - Maybe It's Because I'm A Londoner
 
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
That I love London so.
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
That I think of her wherever I go.
 
I get a funny feeling inside of me,
Just walking up and down.
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
That I love London Town
(Sing it again please)...
 

Year 1 and 2 - Knees Up, Mother Brown

Knees up, Mother Brown!
Knees up, Mother Brown!
Under the table you must go,
E-I-E-I-E-I-O
If I catch you bending
I'll saw your legs right off!
Knees up, knees up, don’t get the breeze up,
Knees up Mother Brown!

OH MY,
WHAT A ROTTEN SONG, WHAT A ROTTEN SONG, WHAT A ROTTEN SONG.
OH MY, WHAT A ROTTEN SONG,

AND WHAT A ROTTEN SINGER TOO-OO-OO.


Year 2  - You Can't Keep A Horse In A Lighthouse

You can't keep a horse in a lighthouse,
It isn't a home for old Ned.
A horse's place in on dry land,
He'll never stay healthy on sea foam and sand...

You can let him graze in the garage
If you give him his meals on a tray,
But you can't keep a horse in a lighthouse,
Neigh, neigh, neigh!






Happy 2014!

Happy new year everyone! Upper Phase and Year 3 have been enjoying singing Happy by Pharrell Williams - here's a video to sing along to with lyrics, and added minions...
