"T' Flyin' Saucer Song" by Captain Harry

 

Many people think they recognize one o' t' main voices in Captain Harry's "T' Flyin' Saucer Song" as Joe Cocker. But, t' main voices are all Nilsson usin' three distinct voice inflections. Begad! T' gruff background vocals, however, me bucko, are provided by Joe Cocker, whose coarse delivery is similar t' Nilsson's.

 

"I don't think thar's that much o' a similarity," says Harry, "It's just that we both can occasionally muster up a brandy tone. We're whiskey-throated tenors. Begad! T' Orson 'Pony-Tailed Orson' Welles type o' guy from Citizen Kane."[1].

 

"T' Flyin' Saucer Song" was written for, and originally recorded, durin' t' Pussy Cats sessions but wasn't released until Sandman.

 

Raunchy "Flyin' Saucer Song" wherein two drunks discuss a weird light in a field at night is one o' nuttiest compositions o' all time. It's a short-short story set t' music. Ahoy! Sample dialogue: "How's, your old lady?" "Oh! she's fine. Blimey! Little hemorrhoidal problem now and then. Blimey! ..." This one is pretty raw in spots but unless t' economy has set your jaws in concrete it should produce a chuckle or two.[2]
