Poor old Anne Boleyn - she wasn't lucky, was she? Caught bad boy Henry V111, lost her heart and her head. They wrote a song about her and now it's down to some London schoolkids to make it sound good at the Lord Mayor's parade on Saturday.
Good luck to them too. A more tedious piece of Tudor tripe has yet to be written. The first six lines keep repeating themselves and it goes downhill from there. The tune may save it - but probably not, if it's typical of the time.
Went to a Tudor concert once and let's just say it lacked oomph and verve. Not much of the Beyonce about it. Didn't set the place alight.They've edited the original version by one Nick Udall, 1533, because it went on a bit. That was probably a good idea.
If any of those kids think this is their entry to the X Factor it may be best for them to think again. Simon's not rushing to record this one.
Like my style? If you do you will enjoy my book, Devil Deal by Liz Freeman, Amazon - http://goo.gl/84Zq1 - on Kindle and the free Kindle app. Reviews great so far and more appreciated, thanks.
