Leeds United Song - Or Is It?
Miki Antony song released in 1971.
Can't believe it wasn't a big hit for Miki, those type of songs were massive then.

So, we pinched the tune a year later.

Hope not!
I'm surprised it wasn't a massive hit for Miki as those type of songs were popular in the 70's, catchy tune.

Two songs from one tune ... great value

I hate all this litigation.
Apparently these guys are not happy with Georginio.

Can’t say I ever heard the other versions back in the day before the Leeds one.YorkshireSquare wrote: ↑Mon Apr 15, 2024 12:51 pm Sally Sunshine was written by Les Reed and Geoff Stephens, Reed just reused it for 'Leeds United'.
Cliff did a German version too...
Re: Leeds United Song - Or Is It?
Replace Sally Sunshine with Daniel Farke on the German version and we might have something ?

The PRS royalties go to the writers rather than the performer, who were the same in both cases, basically Steven’s and Reed licensed the tune to as many outlets as possible! Nice one. And nice find.

Re: Leeds United Song - Or Is It?
This sounds familiar too.
Re: Leeds United Song - Or Is It?
Les Reed is the key, he wrote the original song & was involved in the Leeds United version.BlancdeBlanc wrote: ↑Mon Apr 15, 2024 4:56 pm The PRS royalties go to the writers rather than the performer, who were the same in both cases, basically Steven’s and Reed licensed the tune to as many outlets as possible!

The German language really should not be allowed anywhere near music
