Surely they would have been listening to the Red Roses version so why not just ask for permission to use that version on the album? Maybe they were turned down? They then approach Shane and he records a version as close as possible to the original just to piss everyone else off.

Jaysus I've a great imagination. ........... or have i?

No, I think we're in the area now. All that remains to be straightened out is why Shane would record for Walt Disnae wihout his usual chums in 2013? Could it be that he gets to pocket more money that way I wonder? May his bitter chalk teeth rot in the morning sun on the way to............oh wait, too late for all that........ still, let them rot anyway, eh? :P

Got the cd today. No info in the liner notes on who the backing band is.

Is he kinda lisping because of the lack of teeth? Ive noticed it in interviews lately too.

I suppose it's pretty hard to speak and sing very clearly without any teeth at all...I remember some interview with Spider, where he stated that Shane had to learn to sing more clearly since the reunion or something. I think it must be very hard to pronouce "s-words" very clearly and sharply without any teeth.
