I remember that tune - my cousin was a British ice skater & she used it for one of her routines

Day 10 of #novelty10 And, as we in the UK go to the polls tomorrow, a reminder that populist flagshagging NEVER ENDS WELL. Music by Tony Hatch, words by Jackie Trent, sung by Bruce Forsyth to support a ludicrous 1968 campaign. Sold about 7000 copies, despite a subsidy. youtu.be/rT8LsRVN7C4?...

"The vast majority of Reform candidates are racist, misogynistic and bigoted". Before Nigel gets Carter Ruck on my case, that's not from me, that's from Georgie David, candidate in West Ham and Beckton for the * checks notes * Reform party. Except she isn't now because she defected to the Tories.

Day 9 of #novelty10, and time for a nice spoken word track. After considering Wink Martindale's "Deck Of Cards", and Telly Savalas's "If", I've gone for this track by the red-book wielding celeb worrier, Eamonn Andrews. Reached no. 16 in the UK chart in 1956. Enjoy. youtu.be/uQV4oqweGdo?...

Day 7 of #novelty10 It's Sunday, so time to dip into the hymnal, and what better way to so do than a lovely version of King George V's favourite hymn, "Abide With Me". By Vic Reeves. Produced by The Grid. 1991. youtu.be/qRzQn6EHBAQ?...

Day 5 of #novelty10, and another slice of Bowie from 1967. Did nothing in the UK charts at the time. Reached no. 6, much to his chagrin, in 1973, at the peak of the Ziggy Stardust era. Just Say Gnome, kids. youtu.be/5SQdBxVjZx4?...

Apparently the Inguuurlund supporters are "creating an unusual atmosphere", according to Southgate. Evidently they aren't used to being booed. Well, apart from Jordan Pickford, that is.

Day 3 of #novelty10, and after the Scottish football team's day in the limelight on day 1, this time it's Inguuurlund with, erm, "This Time". From 1982. Forty two years ago. It's like "This Time I'll Tell The Truth", by Boris Johnson. youtu.be/uO844xT7ivE?...
