Zig & Zag's Christmas No.1

Larianne

Just found an old tape of Zig and Zag's Christmas No.1. I was laughing for a good 5 minutes there. So funny. Was a good rap for it's day. Could give Eminem a run for his money. Funniest bit is the end when Zag goes " ha ha ha, ah dear/deer".

Got a bit of a shock in it though! Dustin's voice is very different. He has more of a Dublin Twang now. But I think it's the same guy who does the voice now.

i also have Zigzaggin' Around single on cassette. But it's not as good. Does have the birthday rap on it.

Does he have a line like this in that song? Seeing if I am remembering the right one

"I'll be over in the mornin to fix that ceilin
Sure thats me trade - wheelin and dealin
10 hours a day on the auld buildin site
constructin by day and hey! rappin by night"?

Yeah! I'll try and put up all the lyrics (when I get time). It's a feckin long song!!

"What are doin' with the girlie gold jewellery??"
"Stand back bro and let me go with the flow.COz its the yule time. It's a cool time and brother Zig it's your turn to rap.."

Roar

christ i remember the album..

"A tijuana gypsy stole my personal stereo
No more Dire Straits, or Elvis Costello-oh-oh-oh"

And on an aside note

"she's got tires like Kojak's head
Me diesel's always red
The steerin's gone the breaks dont work at all.
But north south east or west
I know i drive the best
GET OFF THE ROAD!!
It's dustin's hi-ace van"

if there was ever a definition of simpler times i think those songs are

Ah, Ray's Rave. Another TV gem I wish I could un-watch...

Remember the intro to Zig-Zaggin'?

"Hey Mr. Groovy trousers what are you doing?"

Also,

"If music be the food of love then get that man a double cheeseburger!"

Shabadu

Ha! memories... Do you remember Dustin's album? Especially the song 'Born in Little Bray'.

Hilarious for anyone who lived in Greystones, especially seeing as Zig & Zag & Dustin are all from there too.

LMFAO!!!! Theres tears in my eyes at the memories. Sarky, if you find that tape please make me a copy!! What was the song about the monster that ate all the presents that zag had bought for zig??

Hoochiemama

i met her at the bus stop of the 46a
she wore a hat, her hat was black

Sarky

It wasn't a song, it was a bit of banter between Tijajuana Gypsy and I Don't Believe It!

Hoochiemama

i doont beleeeeive it!!!

solice

thought the best part was the jingle bells bit with toilet at the end. I miss Zig and Zag

Hoochiemama

They got me through my childhood. I was on the phone on the den and i got to talk to them and ray and dustin. it was when dustin was doing a take away (macdonalds type thing) and he took my order. then ray said hello to my mam and asked me what age she was and she shouted from behind me "im 28!" and i said "no shes not, shes 41" hahahaha, my mam nearly died! saying her age on national tv. then they sent my out a parcel of stuff and in it was ted free zone stickers!!!

Larianne

I've a videotape and on the end of it is Dempsey's Den!! Zig pretends to be a tree with a few leaves on his head and 'hides' from Ian and Zag. And then they show Kim Wilde's video "You Came". I absolutely love that song!!! Then there's some programme with that weirdo dude Pat something with the long grey hair and hat.

I fancied Ray big time back in the day!! Ooh my photo got shown a few times on the Den for my birthday. Never got on the phone to Ray though!
