There and to the left a bit

There's one particular one which I find very sad no longer makes me think of my childhood (but was a big part of it - my Mum used to sing it to me) because of the awful connotations attached to the singer of the song now that have tainted it in my memory.

A few others that take me back though:

Yellow Submarine - always played at kids parties when I was a kid

Long Haired Lover From Liverpool/Nice One Cyril - my first record purchases

Nelly The Elephant, Hello Mudda Hello Fadda, All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth and a host of others that were played on Children's Choice with Ed 'Stewpot' Stewart when I was a kid
