I'm just listening to the Jo Whiley playback and just got to Why Am I Dancing - I got Match of the Day vibes from the opening bars and maybe a little I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind Of Thing, especially with the "I could be dancing naked" line. :lol:

Bohemia is a real corker! I can definitely see them doing this with an orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall or something!

And HELLO! Nonetheless is now available for download... BRB, got an album to drool over!
For your own good, call me tonight.

Really enjoyed this. Loved the cooking chat 😅 listening to the Radio 4 show now.

I've been trying to think what the opening bars of Why am I Dancing reminded me of, and with you mentioning Match of the Day, I've just got it. Still football related, it is Ant and Dec's 'We're on the ball', which was the England Football teams World Cup song in 2002 (unfortunately) !

OK, I definitely wouldn't have got that - Ant and Dec are a long way off my radar here in the US. :lol:

A work colleague at the time used to sing the alternative lyric 'We're on the plane' (home, obviously).

Ant and Dec are virtually the only people we see on a telly in the UK, they are on everything!

Like PSB they are national treasures !
