Your quarantine theme song



A bizarre "meme-y" thing has apparently taken off out there in the interwebs, and as it's quite fun, I thought I'd share. Just enter your twelfth birthday into the Official Charts Company archive, and what ever is Number 1 in the charts on that date is allegedly your "quarantine theme song"! [The Yanks presumably should use the Billboard Chart search engine?]

Being greedy, I thought - why stop at one song when you could have two, and both in the company of the lovely and talented Pan's People?

At #2, last week's #1, an enduring novelty song classic:


...and the chart-topper:


August 1975 was indeed another world.

So, dear reader - WHAT'S YOURS?

Dress you like a queen



With my birthday weekend looming - around twenty people will be descending on Regent's Park for my and my sister's annual celebratory picnic tomorrow (fingers crossed for the weather!) - we need something particularly sparkly to get the party started.

What better than the fabulously kitsch Pan's People, and yet another of their "literal interpretive dance routines" of a disco classic?

On this, the 65th birthday of one of the group's founding members Airrion Love, it's the Stylistics as you (and probably they) never imagined - Thank Disco It's Friday!

[Forgive the Xmas theme...]

If I had money I'd go wild
Buy you furs
Dress you like a queen
And in a chauffeured limousine
We'd look so fine.


I certainly hope so!
