• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

You've posted a video you don't like of a song you're not keen on? Is there something of significance I'm missing and am I just being dim?

I didn’t post the video, I just commented on it. 😉

Ah, right, I am just being dim then, I thought that was the most likely outcome. Shouldn't post so early in the morning before I'm fully functional! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Spotted Krokus on Darran’s post earlier on the Kerrang poster in the Meatloaf thread and I had heard this on Planet Rock earlier. When it was introduced I was of the opinion that a Beatles song shouldn’t be messed with. I listened to it and thought, as a one off, taken as a song it was OK. Probably more of a cry for help than the upbeat original.
Thoughts!

Not as good as the original though.👍

Saw them at Shepherds Bush on that tour. Very tenuous link for tonight’s game
 
After tonight’s transfer deadline the title of this song might be relevant.
Fabulous song and performance.

Hmmm, Krokus, interesting choice! Never thought I'd see them mentioned on a Swans forum! Lead singer, Marc Storace, is an old mate of mine and he was 70 in October but he's still gigging. Before joining Krokus, he used to front a band in London, called Eazy Money in the late 70s & early 80s. Here's a demo of one of their songs. (BTW, yours truly on keyboards!)

BTW, to answer you question, Marc has always had a fantastic voice IMO and I always liked his take on this song.

This song was inspired by the events of this day in 1959.
Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and “The Big Bopper” JP Richardson we’re killed in a plane crash.
