As a child I thought 'Knees Up Mother Brown' was a horrible song about torturing an old lady. |

I was listening to Shania Twain's That don't impress me much the other day, a song I just love and have been listening to since it came out ( don't know if this counts )....then realised for the first time there were some rather rude words in it.....sheesh...even recommended it to my children |

last week in a charity shop I saw a cotton bag and read the label prune stones. It took about a minute for me to realise it said rune stones. When I was young I used to sing to the aria form Figaro motor car motor car, why I don't know. Elaine. |

i once spent an entire journey to devon singing " because it's jelly jelly jelly jalapo!" i don't know the title of the song but i think the words i was actaully looking for is 'because it really really really could happen'. perhaps a blur/oasis song! |
