Hi all, from a Blades fan from downunder.
(Apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong place.)

I'm hoping the Blades fan community might be able to help me out...

Sadly my dad passed away two days ago. He lived here in Sydney Australia for the last 35 years but remained a passionate Blades supporter all of his life and so we'd like the play the greasy chip butty song at his funeral.

I'm having trouble finding a good version that we can use. I like this version on YouTube but the end cuts off abruptly ().

If anyone could point me in the direction of where I could get of a full version that I could use, or a similar version I'd be forever grateful.

Cheers, Steve.
 

Sure one of our tech minded posters will help out Dubhound. It's always sad to lose a fellow blade please accept our condolences.
 
My uncle Alan started to sing the "Shake and Vac" song when they were spreading the ashes after my Gran's funeral a couple of years back.

I couldn't help but laugh - daft bugger

Nowt to do with the OP and I can't help you find one but it reminded me of that occasion and brought a smile to my face - about the incident - and about my Gran :)
 
Sorry to hear that mate.
We played the John Denver version at my grandads which is obviously really easy to track down.
 
Sorry for your loss mate.

It isn't what you asked for but what about the instrumental and potentially a few people to sing along?

 
Problem is, that's as long as it is so you're never going to get the full (original) song with GCB lyrics over the top. As people have said, just go for the original, the sentiment and Blades connection will be there.

I'm not aware of anyone doing a 'fuller' version of it.

Can't some tech minded person take the version in the OP run it through audio software and gradually feather the ending out?
 
Played the John Denver version at my uncle's funeral too, along with 'Always look on the bright side of life'. It was lovely. Not helpful at all but wanted to share.

I’ve heard the origional John Denver Annie’s song at far too many Blades fans funeral. It’s touching and brings a lump to your throat mate. Go with that mate. Your Dad would be proud of you.
RIP & UTB
 
Sorry for your loss as been mentioned the charlton fa cup game is an idea. If you dont fancy john denver.

But i got a lift home by my auntie yesterday & a version of greasy chip butty came through media device in the car they have. I cant find it on internet but It was horrendous it was like wurzels after 15 pints
