What came back was a mixture of touching, affecting and occasionally downright troubling responses. Oh, and some shameless, but wonderful PR work. Here they are in all their glory.

Sheffield makes me
It’s decent bars and seven hills,
It’s cooling towers and green spaces,
It’s down to earth, it’s av a laugh,
It’s nowt wi’ airs n’ graces.

Sheffield makes me wonder, it’s built on seen hills.
Just like Rome, they say, with dark satanic mills.

Sheffield makes me glad, that when I moved, for love, it wasn’t to Leeds.

Sheffield makes me grin,
Sheffield makes me smile,
Sheffield makes me eat relish,
And loads and loads of pie.

Sheffield makes me glad without fail,
It could be the parks, but I think it’s the ale.

Sheffield makes me…
…pleased as punch I stuck it out, when choice was running thin.
It’s pulse and people make a home, where everyone fits in.

Sheffield makes me come in my pants and on my bedsheets.
I quite like Abbeydale Road, and I’m rather fond of Woodseats!

Sheffield makes me…
Stronger (with them hills)
Drunker (with that beer)
Happy (with those friends)
More Southern (sorry about that)

Sheffield makes me want to dance and smoke,
So many boys, to give a good poke

Sheffield makes Me
It’s green and hilly, pity it’s so fucking chilly.

Sheffield makes me want to know the Cornucopia Radio Show.
It’s sketches, plays, ideas and features,
will appeal to many creatures.
