Let's Talk About Kecks

Songs about trousers. Well, strictly speaking, four songs about trousers and two songs about the absence of trousers - one by accident, one by design. 

Coming in at nearly 17 minutes, Fela Kuti's "Equalisation of Trouser and Pant" doubles up as my entry for Long Song Monday.

"Sunburnt Virgin Trousers" - Knocker Jungle

"Purani Jeans" - Ali Haider

"Equalisation Of Trouser And Pant" - Fela Kuti

"I'm Gonna Wear The Pants" - Rosie Flores & Ray Campi

"Mona, Where's My Trousers" - Kevin Coyne

"Donald Where's Your Troosers" - Andy Stewart

    Here's a Duluth, Minnesota steel-drum band (after Peter Himmelman left it) singing about pants.

    Instead of the version by the idiot ANdy Stewart you could have included this instead

      I think I prefer the idiot Andy Stewart. Now if we combined that with Theo's tip and had a steel band version, on the other hand...
