Billy Connolly is a tribute to the Big Yin. Glasgow and Scotlands ambassador to the World. Laughing with him and at lifes idiosyncrasies every step of the way. Shaking up the world the way only true legends can. The song was recorded in 2022 to help raise awareness for the People's Palace and Winter Gardens Campaign. Filmed by Martin Windebank at Rabbies Tavern Eden Festival 2022 with a line up of friends including Garry McFadden, DopeSickFly, Becci Wallace and Gordy Duncan Jr.
John McMustard - "My first ever trip to the Peoples Palace age about 7 with my Uncle Peter Mortimer(now an esteemed Glasgow historian). The 2 things I remember are a paper mache punk sticking his 2 fingers up to society and Billy Connollys legendary Banana Boots. Every time you go, you see something cool and new or interesting and old and learn something about the peoples history of Glasgow, which for me is the most important and true history."
Gary Lamont - Northwater/Outlander/Boiling Point - "Big yin everything you say is funny because it’s true - sums him up perfectly. The song is like a round up of Billy’s best work in 4 mins! It may sound trite to wax lyrical and be so effusive about how much we (Glasgow) love The Big Yin, but it’s only because it’s true."
Elspeth King Author/Friends Of The People's Palace & Winter Gardens Campaign-
"Billy Connolly song, a Glasgow hosanna using the Big Yin’s own words to summarise both his career and the mutual love between him and most Glaswegians.
‘Let me make the songs of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws’ said Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun. McMustard has made the perfect campaign song and the Friends of the People’s Palace, Winter Gardens and Glasgow Green are grateful for his musical talents and his succinct poetic skills."
Billy Connolly lyrics
(Intro) Ladies and gentlemen of Johnston..a truck of snakes has crashed, please gather at the town hall.
You never forget where you are from
Anderston, Partick and the Drum
Your beginnings were humblebum
Making swearing an art form
All the kids laughing at school, then on the tools acting the fool,
windswept and interesting
From the Sarry heid to the crucifixction
Big yin everything you say is funny cos it's true. Theres no denying Billy Connolly Glasgow belongs to you!
Life itself is funny and gets funnier every day. Roaring and laughing down the road of all those memories. Foxtrots and dunken walks , a welded box on the dry docks. If it wisnae fur your wellys where would you be? Wearing your banana boots, tea cosy hat eating white breid, did your Mother never tell you not to drink on an empty heid.
Big yin everything you say is funny cos it's true. Theres no denying Billy Connolly Glasgow belongs to you!
Big yin everything you say is funny cos it's true. Theres no denying Billy Connolly Glasgow belongs to you!
"Life is a waste of time. Time is a waste of life. Get wasted all the time and you'll have the time of your life."
On the telly talking willie's, wallies and wellies, wally closes, games and romance. Reciting Chic Murray eating a curry, You could be making a bomb but your making a song
Big yin everything you say is funny cos it's true. Theres no denying Billy Connolly Glasgow belongs to you!
Big yin everything you say is funny cos it's true. Theres no denying Billy Connolly Glasgow belongs to you!
a Jobbie weecha, hell of a speaker.
