We Are The Sheep


Steve-B

Recommended Posts

at 0717 this morning, whilst driving into work, ClassicFM was playing a vocal piece by Handel called "We Are The Sheep" which led me to believe that the timing was apolyptic due to being in traffic with thousands of other commuters.

 

funny old world 😬

I'm gonna add a radio to my Christmas list if they play my song more often.

 

Does anyone know what's happened to the field full of turkeys that I had as neighbours last week, they were really nice creatures, we got on really well, they spent a lot of time telling me about their plans for the spring and how they planned to redecorate the field, they were going for a Mexican theme with a nice deck. But they've all gone, what's happened ?

 

Baaaaaaaaaaa

Oh happy memories of my time in the skool choir...

 

That would be from Handel's Messiah. This particular chorus is actually based on a passage from Isiah:

 

We all, like sheep, have gone astray... etc

 

But Handel was German, and he slipped up a bit on the English word order. And lost the commas. And then wrote the music to start with a 4-note choral fanfare: All we like sheep!

 

Very difficult to sing without sniggering, when you're only 12 😬 *tongue*

 

This song remains a firm favourite with Welsh male voice choirs...

 

😳 nothing...
