Advent Calendar 2020

The Frenchays

Enjoy this amusing cautionary tale from The Frenchays!

The Frenchays are a group of friends who sing together. We like singing for ourselves, as well as for others, and have performed at colleges and in churches around Oxford. Our repertoire is varied, from very old French madrigals to new songs written by one of our members, Matt Wallis.

'I Bought an iPhone for my Cat' is one such new song by Matt, who loves cats and whose day job is creating software to help singers learn music. He explains:

I read some research recently, which found that some of the feline behavioural problems described in the song have been discovered in humans too, being particularly prevalent among their young. There's a real danger that this syndrome is jumping species from cat to human

If this song made you smile, please consider making a donation to the Frenchays' chosen charity, Asylum Welcome
