Not many people know this.  At one time Willie McLundy MP, who hides behind a Super Injunction was invited to appear on Top of the Pops!  It was when he sold a huge amount of records after recording “There is a river.”  Not sure what year it was, you can do the research yourself.

Willie declined the request.  I suppose Willie found out they were only molesting females instead of males.

Seems it was first sung by another con-man called Jimmy Swaggart, some one told me Willie style himself on Swaggart.

Just imagine the scandal if Willie had taken part in Top of the Pops and it started to come out in the Clockwork Jimmy scandal Willie had been lured into Jimmy`s parlour to cavort with “rentboys” after the show!!
It is impossible to find Willie singing “There is a river” on Youtube. Here is some other character singing it. Sounds like a real phony.

If you want to see a real outstanding con-man with no shame singing the same song you can see it at this link.
