“Recently there's been a spate of 'slebs trying to say 'Ey up me duck'. The Beeb can't even spell it right so what chance of poor Angelina saying it right? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-30104871 If you really want to know how to greet someone in the East Midlands you could do worse than study this song from native boy Kevin Coyne. As Wikipedia notes: Kevin Coyne (27 January 1944 – 2 December 2004) was a musician, singer, composer, film-maker, and a writer of lyrics, stories and poems. The former "anti-star"[1] was born on 27 January 1944 in Derby, UK, and died in his adopted home of Nuremberg, Germany, on 2 December 2004. Coyne is notable for his unorthodox style of blues-influenced guitar composition, the intense quality of his vocal delivery, and his bold treatment of injustice to the mentally ill in his lyrics."
