    I was really quite pleased with myself when I came up with a song to describe Lewis Hamilton’s love-hate relationship with the stewards to the tune of Phil Collins’ Another Day In Paradise. So I thought I might open up the floor to other people to rewrite songs to describe events in Formula 1.


    “Another Day in Paradise” – the Lewis Hamilton remix

    He calls out to the man in light blue:

    “Sir, can you help me?

    I tried to pass, but I got a drive-through

    Is there something that you can do?”

    He walks on, doesn’t look back;

    He pretends he can’t hear him

    As Lewis pulls into the pit aisle

    With darkened whispers this is a racial profile

    Oh, think twice – it’s another day for

    You and me in paradise.

    Oh, think twice – it’s just another day for you,

    You and me in paradise.

    He calls out to the man in light blue

    There’s been another crash;

    You can tell from the shouting

    Twenty seconds post-race and counting.

    Oh, think twice …

    Oh, Lord, there’s internal rhyme, though in not every instance

    Oh, Lord, the meter is occasionally a little bit bizarre

    You can tell from his fastest lap time

    You can see he hit Felipe Massa

    His fans will say he’s guilty of no crime

    Just don’t mention Paul di Resta.

    Oh, think twice …


    So, now it’s your turn. Please include the lyrics and a link to the original song so we can sing along.

    Yeah, university exams are over. But I have a position around my residential college, and I have to stick around until the semester is officially finished.

    PM, your uni semester isn’t over yet? Over here, it’s been officially over with for almost two months now (heck, even the second sessions for both semesters are completely done).

    Thanks for sticking that Phil Collins song in my head now. Ugh!
