I looked through the obvious sections of my CD collection but couldn't find the song "Nobody loves a fairy when she's forty"... Either it's in one of the less obvious sections instead (which seems highly unlikely...), it's on a tape rather than a disc (in which case, as most of the tapes that I own are in boxes buried under boxes &/or heaps of other stuff, I probably won't be able to find it in the near future...) or I've only heard it on the wireless rather than on a recording of some kind that I'd bought.
If memory serves me correctly then the first two verses & the chorus of the version that I've heard were the same as those in the version that KT gave us, but most if not all of the later verses were different. This was almost certainly the earlier of those two versions, as I'm sure that it lacked the references to television & to "government-controlled" air... The bits of those verses that I can remember were _

"... the glen;
Been admired by all the children...
And run after by all the men!"

"I've been the Fairy (something),
And the Fairy Daffodill;
I've been the Fairy of the Wind...
And suffer from it still."

(and the last 3 [out of 4] lines from the final verse...)

"My splits were all the rage,
Until the night the woodsman
Left his chopper on the stage."

"God rot Botchkamos Istochnik!"

I have 'Dance of the big Fat Fairies' on tape if that would help.

Home video, is it?

This is the work of an Italian narco-anarchic collective. Don't bother insulting them, they can't read English anyway.

I let the forum alone for a week and look what happens!

A pantomime's already in the works! If nothing else, you guys do work fast.

Is this virtual or physical?

Can I be lady in background 5?

Dunno, but welcome, Joan.

Virtual. But with pictures.
