Massive fan of Keane, so here’s a bit of Tom Chaplin.

I’ve been wanting to teach the 120 strong Key Stage Two choir that I lead, this song, for two years now, but Covid has prevented it…

There’s always next year

Amazingly youtube asked me to do an age verification check for the Kevin Bloody Wilson track and not for the Ivor Biggun.

This one was big when I was about 8/9 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ube_aHo ... mChristmas
Nina & Frederik - Little Donkey; paired up on record with Je ne crois plus au pere Noel & thats the record I was familiar with.
Gracie Fields and The Beverley Sisters had a stab at this song too.

More realistically, one that resonates is Steeleye Span's Gadete. A live performance from 10-15 years ago here. Maddy Prior had a fab voice and is still singing very well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDc2FD- ... arkRecords

Best video/song combo = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-bErbL ... l=S.Ginnem

Favourite song = Don't let the bells end.

Both irreverent but funny.

I've really enjoyed watching (most) of these so to bring it back here is my contribution.

I sang this with a couple of lifelong friends at the direction of the legendary Jack Longstaff (they will know), which is why it’s one of my favourites:
