Can't get this song out of my mind
« on: 31 January 2013, 18:22:11 »

I hadn't heard this since 1975...until it was played on Radio 2 today.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jDX7ly8Jyo

Even though it never made the Top 10, I think it's brilliant..and miles better than some of the dross that makes the charts these days. :y :y

Do I sound like an old fogey?  ;)

Old Fogey ? Not at all. I often get one of those nice 'ol tunes in my head that keep me joyfully hummin and a whistlin during my working day. Like this one  . . .

I've just listened, Nick. Sounds like something from the  Eurovision song contest.

Earplugs required. ::) ::) ::) ;)

This song has been stuck in my head all day.

"have you noticed how an angry man
Can only get so far
until he reconciles the way he thinks things ought to be
with the way things are"

Spot on. ;)
