*waves hand* I can't stand Elvis either, never could see why he was rated so highly. Especially in the later years. Gwynne |

Well then, its Strump and me against the rest of the world (apparently). Some people (and I refer to just us two) have loads of taste, and others?..........well, sadly none at all - lol Jacqui |

I worked somewhere once where I was forced to listen to the radio station 'Capital Gold'. I must have heard 'Young Girl' by Gary Puckett and the Union Gap, about 20 times a week for over a year. The memory haunts me still :-(( |

Hole In My Shoe - Traffic I looked to the sky Where an elephant's eye Was looking at me From a bubblegum tree And all that I knew The hole in my shoe Was letting in water (letting in water) I walked through a field That just wasnt real Where 100 tin soldiers Would shoot at my shoulder And all that I knew The hole in my shoe Was letting in water (letting in water) (I climbed on the back of a giant albatross Which flew through a crack in the cloud To a place where happiness reigned all year round Where music played ever so loudly) I started to fall And suddenly woke And the dew on the grass It stuck to my coat And all that I knew The hole in my shoe Was letting in water (letting in water) |

Yeh that's another one Sheila. Candle in the flipping Wind too. But I don't know yrs Gloria. This is probably a really stupid question Gwynne but was that song covered by Nigel Planer? |

Sorry Gwynne & Elaine:) But it's bland, it means nothing and it lacks feeling lol. And it's ALWAYS in the top single things. |

5-4-3-2-1 think it was by Paul Jones and Manfred Mann---they could count backwards---WOW, thats about all it was. Gloria x |

I think 'Hole in my Shoe' has something to do with LSD, lol! It's the first 'pop' song I remember and I asked my sister what it meant - she didn't really know either! My vote would probably go to Bryan Adams and the song from Robin Hood - not a bad song but got on my wick after a while! |

I agree! When it first came out that was the only single we had at the youth club and we played it over and over and over and over and over again! Debby |
