As someone with Crohn’s disease, I’m being encouraged to “make some noise on World IDB day.”
I SAID, I HAVE CROHN’S DISEASE.
Will that do?
Anybody know any songs about intestines?

Something by Sir Harry Caecum?
Gatz says
Or Coeliac Green
Moose the Mooche says
Make some noise?
Brave man…
fentonsteve says
Quite. A Venn diagram of People with IBD and People who Fart would be two non-overlapping circles.
Moose the Mooche says
Two non-overlapping circles.. oy vey, this is not the time for that image…
Junior Wells says
in honour of this auspicious event, today I booked in a colonoscopy and gastroscopy…will they meet in the middle and shake hands?
Moose the Mooche says
I hope you have the gastroscopy first.
Do I have to say why?
Junior Wells says
I have had one of each before and can’t say I really cared. spent the night shitting like a king on pre op then knocked out for the procedures.
Moose the Mooche says
“Shitting like a king on pre op” is a Kanye lyric, non?
Skirky says
Pink Floyd – An Alimentary Lapse of Reason?
fentonsteve says
‘Down Under’ by Men At Work feat. Colon Hay
Skirky says
Got to be Eagles – Hotel California, hasn’t it? I mean, they mention the warm smell of colitis in the first verse!
fortuneight says
Here’s a clip of blues guitarist Laurence Jones, who also has Crohn’s disease. I’m in the video too – well, the back of my head is.
duco01 says
And here’s a song by Beth Orton, who also has Crohn’s disease.
fentonsteve says
There’s a serious young American of fluid gender around at the moment who sings about having undefinable sexuality and Crohn’s. As you can tell, I’ve forgotten his/her name.
IIRC, that Daniel chap from Silverchair, the one who was married to Natalie Imbuglia, also has it.
Markg says
I don’t know these two tracks but my good friend Mr Spotify does ….intrigued to know what genre of music they come under BTW, any fans?
Markg says
Moose the Mooche says
More tea, vicar?
Markg says
Moose the Mooche says
Some muffins, perhaps?
Sewer Robot says
intestine.. intestine.. 1.. 2.. 1.. 2…
Junior Wells says
How about this one with the mighty Chris Spedding on geetar
SteveT says
I saw that John Cale tour @Junior Wells. He was off his face but the music was fab.
Moose the Mooche says
Apropos of absolutement nish, here he is two years later similarly wankered – dressed as Wavey Davy from Novelty Island, with Andy Summers on guitar and a young woman at the keyboards who is liable to catch her death of cold. So much to enjoy.

Urge for Offal by Half Man Half Biscuit,
dai says
I also have Crohns (or Colitis, nobody has ever been certain). Humira seems to have sorted me out, for now anyway. Can’t think of a song though.
I liked it that when I did a fundraising walk last year it was sponsored by a toilet paper manufacturer. .
Mike_H says
“Humira In The Bathroom” – The Beat
“Humira Man” – Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band
“Ambient 2: The Plateaux Of Humira” – Harold Budd & Brian Eno
Gatz says
The Humira League with ‘Here Comes the Humira Man’
Sewer Robot says
⭐️Double Pun Points!
dai says
OK. Humira League with “Seconds” (the time needed to get to the bathroom)
moseleymoles says
Is it time to post that Millie Jackson cover someone? I would but can’t…

retropath2 says
The delights of Boney M and Brown Girl in the Ring, a curious image, but more understandable as it unfolds: “Show me a motion” (la-de-la-de-daa)
fentonsteve says
Ringo’s early out-take, ‘Brown Submarine’.
I’ve just finished Philip Norman’s ‘Help!’ book. “Well I never knew that!” factoid: Ringo has a food intolerance of onions.
dai says
When The Beatles were in India he took cans of baked beans with him.
fentonsteve says
I think most of us on here knew that. I’m a fair-weather Fabs fan.
The other thing I learned is that Neil Aspinall fathered a child with Pete Best’s mum.
Gatz says
I’m at the point in the unexpurgated Lewisohn book where Ringo has just supplanted Pete Best. Along with his humour and his perceived adulthood (all of a couple of years older than his new bandmates) one of the things that fascinate them is his restricted diet, a legacy of childhood illness.
fentonsteve says
A young Lewisohn was the consultant on Norman’s book.
Third newly-learned fact: they went to Hamburg more than once. I am a Fabs numpty.
slotbadger says
And Norman put out his recent (IMO unremarkable) Maccathon without acknowledging any of the insane degree of research Lewisohn had undertaken for Tune In on Sir Bip Bop’s childhood and early years

minibreakfast says
Well if we’re now veering from intestine-specific songs general poo songs, then I nominate Drop The Boy.
mikethep says
Or anything by Mr Log.
fentonsteve says
Percy’s big one:
I’d give it a minute if I were you
Mike_H says
The Give-it-a- Minutemen.
Funkadelic have something to add to the debate.
(Promentalshitbackwashpsychosis Enema Squad (The Doo-Doo Chasers))
I’d give this one 10min44sec though
hubert rawlinson says
Not forgetting Star Trek’s Captain’s Log.
fentonsteve says
Buzzcocks: Oh Shit!
Markg says
pawsforthought says
Anything by Bob Log the third would surely work, no?
