Mel (& Paul) Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Radio 2 (except for Jeremy Vine - so its Classic fm) or any talking books (particlularly fond of Poirot at the moment ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 It depends really, both Rosie and I have eclectic music tastes, so it can be anything from Tom Jones, Italian opera through to Moby and Ibiza hard dance. Currently it's the Bee Gees It's good to give the children access to a good range of music so they can make their own opinions. I believe the Bee Gees are appearing at the Oundle Festival (Northamptonshire) in July. I'm hoping to get the chance to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Annie's Song! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellcat Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Bee Gees are ace! I have just added Glen Campbell's Twenty Golden Greats to Harry's iPod. Debs is not impressed - but Galveston and Country Boy are big sing-a-long faves for me... If you ever feel road rage then you ought to try a bit of Glen... Wichita lineman? fab!

Hellcat Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Oh, Embrace - is that the world cup song? I quite like that one. Can't bear football though so I will be hibernating for the duration. thank God for Sky! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 I like Embrace, but NOT the world cup song! It's rubbish, will never be sungon the terraces at a match! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crooked Chicken Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 My 2 and 4 year old love Wild Thing by The Troggs. Not sure what the CD is, something like 'Best Air Guitar Allbum in the World Ever'. They insist on it in the car and Ben (4) knows all the words. It's just a great tune to get you going in the morning. We love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaz Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I'm not kidding but I think that The Goodies version of Wild Thing from the Christmas special episode "Goodies Rule O.K."* is probably the definitive version (and I'm not kidding - I really love their version)! Aha, I can top trump that! I have a signed copy "To Sheila" of a cover by Simon Turner. I could listen to it over & over again (and did in late '70's). Anyone heard of him?

Popcorn Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Er.....afraid not Sheila (although I bet Darren has, there's not a lot he doesn't know about music) Helen! Where's he got to? He must have had an early night to be up for school today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I didn't expect anyone to have heard of him, although he was famous briefly when was the title role in Tom Brown's School Days, and presumably had one record deal on the back of that. He was good looking in a blond hair kind of way, but not my cup of tea. However, my brother knew him, friends with his landlady or something, and thought I'd be chuffed with the record. Which I was!
