DESCRIPTION:
The Christians singing Hooverville live in Colwyn Bay, Wales on 6th June 2014. The end of a brilliant night and before the well received encore all of which had the audience buzzing.

Despite a small technical hitch (well covered up by Joey) this is one of the best live versions of the old classic Hooverville first released in 1987 but still sounding fab today.

The lyrics to Hooverville seem spookily familiar, even though they were written in the '80's (Hooverville was the name given to shanty towns built by homeless people in America's great depression under President Hoover):

"The doubt of work sends the out of work man,
To city a hope and a home.
One door shuts here another two slam,
Yes he's homeless he's hopeless alone....
Oh Hooverville, and they promised us the world,
In Hooverville, said the streets that were paved with silver and gold,
Oh Hooverville, and they promised us a roof above our heads,
in Hooverville,
And as fools we believed every last word they said....."
