I’ve heard it so much now I can feel myself enjoying it. Why are they singing so many songs these days anyway?

BLOODY waffle doggy, that'll be in my head all night now! I was slightly relieved that there was a new series, but now having watched all of the new episodes 4 times today so far I can confidently say that dog can waffle right off! Love the stick song though, it's genius Grin

TakemedowntoPotatoCity · 10/07/2018 21:37

It was only today I realised they were singing Last Night A GJ (i.e.Go Jetter) saved my life and not DJ Blush

Waffle dog is the popular hit at the moment but the song i can never get out of my head is the biggleton intro. I hum it all day

MrsMotherHen · 10/07/2018 23:10

Was just emptying the dishwasher and singing the shape band song. I love it.

Coffeeisnecessary · 10/07/2018 23:15

I always imagine the earnest but slightly disappointed bands in a studio recording them. Particularly Peter rabbit, lots of power punching going on!

ChairyPoppins · 10/07/2018 23:21

The Peter Rabbit song does sound slightly intense and angsty.

My mindees are mad on that Baby Shark song which gets stuck deep inside your head...

It's bloody brilliant. I love it! Every time OH is home & it's on I'm like look... look... it's so good & his like Hmm twat, no taste.

MsJuniper · 10/07/2018 23:32

We love the new CBeebies songs by the presenters and show casts. My favourite is We're Pirates by the Swashbuckle cast but the GJ one is also pretty good.

Killerqueen2244 · 10/07/2018 23:43

Yeah it’s hip to be square! I like the Shapes song much more than I should...you know what with being cool an’ all!!! 😂

MrsMotherHen · 10/07/2018 23:46

god we all need to get out more Grin Wink

beautifulblue · 10/07/2018 23:50

@mrsmotherhen LOL 😂 You're so right... we really do. It is hip to be square though..

QuackPorridgeBacon · 11/07/2018 01:54

I heard the GJ song today, what is happening to kids tv 😂

I think anything Duggy related is pure genius. Has anyone seen the one with the tadpoles? Fucking, brilliant. I’m a huge fan by the way. I get way too excited for peter rabbit. The energy is amazing and I do think they must be gutted they sing for CBeebies and not huge crowds of screaming fans. I get dead into it though and belt it out while my arms are flying everywhere. I totally lose myself in them vocals.

Yes, I need to get out more. But alas, the kids have a bug so it’s another CBeebies day for us.

I read this thread last night before falling asleep and today it’s all I can think about. @NoProbLlama78 has blown my mind and is 100% correct - her version of the Go Jetters lyrics work much better and make more sense. My DD is obsessed with Go Jetters currently so I have heard it a lot today already and it’s annoying me that it’s not NoProbLlama78‘s way Grin

NoProbLlama78 · 11/07/2018 17:02

Dr Midgery - I love the Go Jetters but the lyrics wind me up so much. I'd set up a campaign to change them but I'm far too lazy Grin

One thing that blew my mind was that Iggle Piggle is about the size of a childs finger. At the start Derek Jacobi says his boat is no bigger than your hand. I used to find the haa hoos scary but theyre about beach ball sized so I'm not bothered now.

DrMidgeryMargery · 11/07/2018 22:15

Well @NoProbLlama78 you are a legend in the Midgery household - I couldn’t wait to tell DH the revelation when he got home. ITS SO TRUE. How did no one suggest it? Grin

NoProbLlama78 · 12/07/2018 05:55

Grin Dr Midgery I feel important now. I should've been at that meeting!!!

Might message cbeebies

QuackPorridgeBacon · 12/07/2018 18:23

I’m starting to come round to a lyric change myself now lol

When Katy wiggles her head side to side in the shape song it reminds me of Reeves and Mortimer doing George Michael 😂
