Nice 1 John.
WON THE HEARTS OF ALL WOLVERHAMPTON.WILL BE SADLY MISSED.R.I.P FRED LOVE FROM AN OLD FRIEND SARAH XX
EXCELLENT SONG!!!
What a great loss to Wolverhampton, he was almost a part of Wolverhampton and his loss to us will be felt by all. Ring Road will never be the same, neither will Wolverhampton. There should definately be a big statue of him with his broom which should be erected with a plaque saying some things about him. This will be seen for generations to come, as I saw him when I was young and my parents, it will become a symbol and feature in Wolverhampton! I beg and humbly request the Wolverhampton Council to erect this statue and memorial for him!
R.I.P. JOSEPH - We will never forget you!
(P.S. Anyone know when the funeral is going to be and where can we donate for his funeral as well as memorial?)
Great song, brilliant idea for help the homeless.
Goodnight, God bless Fred.x

ace song ian hope u make lots of cash for the homeless charity its a sad fact that so many people end up with no place to call home, but for some people its the way they want to be . ” a rolling stone gathers no moss”….
REPLY TO TINA! stop being a mard, this song is for charity, so any kind of publicity is good don’t you think!!! BLA BLAH!
good song it tells alot about red r i p mate god bless xxx
Lovely song John, well done, it says it all.
it seems the guy has all his family posting messages here, pathetic, and the song is a cliche but we all know everybody looks for the moment of fame.
nice one great song i still want a copy fred would be proud
Why make a tribute how many people did he shoot when he was a S.S. soldier. especially Jews?or have they been forgotten I don’t know how he lived with himself
whens this song going to be released …..
