For I'll go no more waltzing Matilda, all around the green bush far and free

To hump tent and pegs, a man needs both legs-no more waltzing Matilda for me.

In spite of ourselves by John Prine & Iris DeMent.

My dad was quite poorly last year and it wasn't looking good. I went to visit him and my mum and him were sat holding hands singing this song to each other.

Thankfully he's fine now but that song always brings a tear to my eye.

Codex by Radiohead

Sleight of hand, Jump off the end. Into a clear lake, No one around.

Just dragonflies, Flying to the side. No one gets hurt, You're doing nothing wrong.

Slide your hand, Jump off the end. The water's clear and innocent. The water's clear and innocent.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas, but I don't know why.

Was watching an old Rob Brydon show on Dave this week a Christmas edition and Bryn Terfel sang it.

There was me in May, blubbing away to a Christmas song
