Check Your Cervix - preview by sunleyband published on 2011-11-03T22:38:00Z Here's a preview from our upcoming parody album <i>Not the Sunley Band</i>. Evan: This song is inspired by the cervical screening campaign television adverts. A woman in one of the ads proclaims: "It's not like you can just say 'have you had your … inspected lately'" and I couldn't resist the opportunity to create a PSA rap in the mould of the Do The Right Thing campaign of the late eighties. As I set out writing I took advice from my feminist-blog-writing partner. She rightly pointed out that a cold speculum was not "a real big thrillah" by any means, but that it was OK to leave the line in because it rhymed. At this point in the process I honestly though that we could offer the song to the National Cervical Screening Programme for use in a future campaign. Maybe I was kidding myself. Certainly, when I heard Dangerfield's verse I gave up that hope - I don't think they would be cool asking women to "come in and let us poke around inside your lady parts," or with us suggesting that the medical professional performing the screening would also provide a foot massage. Oh well. It's a shame, because the Programme does good work, and they deserve a hip tune or two. Iain: I finally fulfilled my lifelong dream of incorporating 'lady parts' into a rap Genre PSA Rap
