You could do a lot worse than Stop The Cavalry by Jona Lewie. At least it has a point. But I don’t really like any of them. In my opinion, the best ever Xmas number one was Mad World by Gary Jules (2003), which I would say is one of the best cover versions of all time. But not a Xmas song.

And why am I going in the hole? What have I done?…[Read more]

And, Dan, before you join Brian, in the hole, what is the best Christmas Song?
White Christmas
Santa Baby
Christmas Rapping (a favourite of mine)
Thirty eight years of “Driving Home”
Or some seventies Glam Rock rubbish?

This should have been the Xmas number one.

Brian is now dead
In a very big hole, I dug it square, but it should have been round….

If there is any chance that Wham! might top the Xmas charts with the same song two years in a row, with a song that is decades old, it speaks volumes about the absolutely carp state of modern music. Also, I think it might be the Xmas song I hate more than any that I have ever heard. It also might be the Xmas song with the video I hate more than…[Read more]

Think you might be digging a hole there.

@brianN, we really are going to have to be on our best behaviour.

Just watched Operation Mincemeat this evening @hunnybunny, care of Netflix. Good stuff but not an obvious candidate for a musical IMO.

A friend went to see him live many years back (the Count, not Gregg). Also went to see I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue (with Humph). Said it was even funnier in the flesh.

You know, I could be persuaded to start feeling sorry for Gregg. Not a lot, mind.

@birdleader I will, but only play Seasons, Star Wars and Rio

You need to give us a nice easy level @birdleader where we can beat our scores. Not Jurassic Pork!

Anyone up to test out the updated challenge? https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/challenge/ Since bringing it back I don’ t think a single flinger has participated, which is OK, but figured maybe a nudge might help. No offense taken. I know it was down for a little too long. Thanks all!

Looks like they are back in North Wales somewhere. I’m sure Twiggy had a wee behind that tree.

However, random levels could be interesting.

Challenge is back (thanks @birdleader!) and we don’t have the dreaded Hollydogs any more, hooray.

I just said that the stories were out there @brianN, not that they were true. I agree with your analysis.

You know, I could be persuaded to start feeling sorry for Prince Andrew. Not a lot, mind.
