Coronation Street - ORIGINAL 1960 THEME SONG 

Thanks Matt. I was a Granada employee and as far as I can recall a Christmas party snippet went something like this: Gone is the cotton mill When clogs on cobbles was the drill The war is won, a youthful age has begun Old folks still mouth there words and say Is this -------- rock n roll really here to stay?

yes i remember singing along to it, back in the day

Never heard this version,hilarious!

Actually there was an intended lyric that was written by my late friend Jeff Ryan. He played me a demo of it on an old reel-to-reel sung by Georgie Fame, no less. It was never released but it was amazing. I can remember some of the lyrics.."gone are the bad old days, now we've new fangled ways, nowt south to beat, Coronation Street, Mam's mending underwere, Da's cutting Derek's Her, Tharud be rare, in London, come for your holidays, now we've got motorways, it's only two turns from London. Something &Aspidetra what-nots, something & Lancashire hot pots". I wish I could find a copy!

Glorious

Bloody tears of laughter in this 'ouse.

Also, it was Eric Spear who composed the title music

Manchester has changed so much since 1960 funny theme btw

Original closing titles to Coronation Street from 09th December 1960 but obviously with dubbed vocals as I know it originally ended and they never would’ve said things like that back then

I think the lyrics are fake

Clap Clap Clap Clap Clap!

Short Lyrics: There is a little street Where all the neighbours meet So but quite nice And everything is SHITEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Original Producer Stuart Latham

Dear, oh dear 🤦‍♂️

A JOKE righT> all those swear words. No way. This is like an April fools joke

song writing in the 60s was rad

I wants to break free song Music video is based on classic characters from coronation Street

WTF

Everything is shite when living in Constipation street… or barely any shite. Plenty of piss though!
