The three I have that are not on your list are.. Back in the USSR (Cossacks riding on the roundabout) Your mother should know (lady rubbing her chin near Maxwell) I wanna hold your hand ( the man offering the walrus his hand) That duck one is annoying me, *where is the old brown shoe Dave? The one with the girl standing on a balloon could be Don't let me down Edit *Ah the tramp sleeping is wearing it.
Cheers, Chilco! Always loved that song! Yes I’m confirmed on a repatriation flight out of joburg to LHR on Thursday. Leaving at 12.05 (but we must meet at the assembly point at 06.00 for all the paperwork and checks) arriving T5 at around 22.30. Then I’ll drive a couple of hundred miles to see my parents before heading back to London ..... oh no, silly me, that was someone else. Me (being sensible, acutely aware of the issues and not of the “I don’t give a flying **** about everyone else” brigade) - I’ll get a car home (isolating in the back seat) and then I’m in complete self-isolation for 14 days. After that, I can finally see family and friends but still keep social distancing. To keep the music theme - as Van Der Graaf Generator said on their 1970 album - “The Least We Can Do Is Wave To Each Other”
I had the lady rubbing her chin as “I’ve Got A Feeling”, but I like the man offering his hand - didn’t think of that! Yeah - the duck with the bag on its head?? Stumped I am!
Here a nice little documentary about the remarkable Rosetta Tharpe, the Godmother of Rock & Roll who influenced Chuck Berry and Elvis amongst others...

Anyone watch the Ella Fitzgerald documentary on BBC2 Saturday evening? What a lady. On I-player for catch-up if anyone interested.
Missed it, but can't access iPlayer here in the Netherlands. Bit of a pain there's few programs I've found elsewhere.
As you are probably aware Coldplay have a Southampton born and Saints supporting Drummer by the name of Will Champion. I wasn't really a fan of Coldplay by they have grown on me a bit. I love the track below
