What embarrassing songs do you secretly like? Fess up, no one will judge you here!
I was inspired to post this last night whilst chatting to Lou on MSN and discovering we were both listening to 80s music. I had been in a bad mood and listening to 'Xanadu' really cheered me up!

On the same CD I had on last night was 'Japanese Boy' by Aneka!
'Mister won't you tell me where my love has gone, he's a Japanese boy, oh I miss my Japanese boy...'

When those two wet gits, with their girly curly hair
Make another song, for marronic holidays
that nausiate-ate-ates in a million different ways
From the shores of Spain, to the coast of southern France
No matter where you hide, you just can't escape this dance
Hold a chicken in the air, stick a deck-chair up your nose
Buy a Jumbo-Jet, and then bury all your clothes
Paint your left knee green, then extract your wisdom teeth
Form a string quartet, and pretend your name is Keith.
Skin yourself alive, learn to speak araphahoe
Climb inside a dog, and behead an Eskimo
Eat a Renault 4, wear salami in your ears
Cassarole your gran, dis-embowel yourself with spears
The disco is migrating, the sound is loud and grating
It's truly nausiating - let's do the dance again..
Hold a chicken in the air, stick a deck-chair up your nose
Buy a Jumbo-Jet, and then bury all your clothes
Yes you'll hear this song, in the holiday discos
And there's no escape, in the clubs or in the bars
You would hear this song, if you holidayed in Mars
Skin yourself alive, learn to speak araphahoe
Climb inside a dog, and behead an Eskimo
Now you've heard it once, your brain will spring a leak
And though you hate this song you'll be humming it for weeks
Hold a chicken in the air, stick a deck-chair up your nose
Buy a Jumbo-Jet, and then bury all your clothes
la la la la la la la....
(voice in the background at the end: "'ay - we had a laugh!")

Returning to the theme (hastily!) I confess a certain affection for Mull of Kintyre.

Admit it, who bought 'Save Your Love' by Renee and Renato?
Absolutely not!!!!
I love Happy Talk too 623.
Also I have some satirical affection for The Chicken Song (Spitting Image)
I did buy I just called to say I love you By Stevie Wonder which is quite embarrasing and I have a great affection for two very old folk songs: Puff the Magic Dragon by Peter, Paul & Mary and Michael Row The Boat Ashore by the Highwaymen. These two songs send shivers up and down my spine for very personal reasons. (Not sexual though!!!)

I like the song which was used on the 3 adverts. It forget how it goes now. Anyone?
That one is Can You Dig it by the Mock Turtles Choc chick. A great song
Embarassing songs err... I did one own a Pinky and Perky LP, infact think it's somewhere in my loft, with all the vinyls that I can not bring myself to let go

When I was little we had noisy next-door neighbours who played that song over and over into the early hours. Hate it!

Awwwwwwwwwwwww they were in love.Post by: goldencup on February 14, 2006, 10:26:06 am
When I was a child, I had a pathalogical fear of Pinky and Perky and would scream the house down if I ever caught a glimpse of them. I especially hated the one in the hat. Even now, I can't look at them without smelling that fear.
I confess to owning a Pinky and Perky record - I haven't seen it for a long time (honest!) but I believe it's called "Pinky and Perky's Beat Party." Probably worth a fortune on ebay. Or not.
