This reminds me of ....
 
We have threads looking for songs with birds and animals in the title, with "up" in the title, but what about songs which remind you of a particular Accy Webber ... it could be a direct link: someone's name in a title. Or it could be an indirect linking. Whatever, try to be kinda nice, or, at least, humorous.

I have one for Dave in Germany. Has nothing to do with Dave or with Germany ... and it's sort of about an event that Dave has possibly never attended. But it does bring to mind the determination of squaddies, in the heart of Canada's cattle Province, to go down to the Hat for a damn good time, whatever the extremities of the weather. And the lyrics contain words which feature large in the everyday discourse of squaddies the world over.:D I tried to find a video with a donkey singing the song, but this is the best I could come up with: ;)

And if you feel like building a pillory for yourself, choose one that you think best defines yourself.

This is me:

Brilliant Eric! It really is you...where on earth -or in the universe - did you find that song?!:D

As for the song for DiG -it's perfect -I'm sure hell appreciate it.

(BTW what were you on when you thought this up?;))

Eric, thank you for introducing me to Deteriorata. Can't believe I've never come across it before. And it's way better than the original. I shall treasure it.

Thid one is for C'mon ... I know the poor guy recieves a lot of criticism for his socialist views ... here is a vision of what the workers paradise could be like. I know C'mon probably won't read this thread, but, if he does, I hope he brings a sense of humour with him because there is no malice or criticism intended;)
