http://thespectacledbear.blogspot.com/2011/08/fifty-foodie-tunes-40-to-31.html
Thursday, 4 August 2011. FIFTY FOODIE TUNES (40 TO 31). 40 Led Zeppelin: Custard Pie. Foodies must be disappointed. This list is turning into a list of songs about sex, such as this Zeppelin crudity: Chewin' a piece of your custard pie. Listen to Jimmy Pages' guitar whine and wonder, and Planty's harmonica frolics. To quote Nicole Kidman. 39 John Lennon: Cold Turkey. 38 Hall and Oates: Maneater. 37 Ralph Marterie and his Orchestra: Shish Kebab. 36 Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell: The Onion Song. As we are,.

Friday, 31 October 2008. A've jist been hame fur a few days an' A cannae git back tae talking the wey A dae usually whin A'm ma normal sel doon here in London. Disnae take mair than an oor back whaur A came fae afore A stert soondin like ma faither. An' noo A cannae fuckin stoap it. Gie's a break, ay? Home where my thought's escaping,. Home where my music's playing,. Home where my love lies waiting. With what, I wonder? We may never know. I'm not waking him up to find out. Instead, I shall marvel at how ...

The Spectacled Bear: September 2009
http://thespectacledbear.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, 26 September 2009. Music to toddle to. Last night I posted the song Miracles. By Jefferson Starship and a chum told me she really liked it but she was 4 years old when it came out. What a four year old made of the lyric I'm not sure, when it seems to be all ladies and gentlemen doing filthy things to one another with ecstatic results, including some rude words and noises slipped in which the censors possibly missed. So I thought of what songs I had liked myself at the age of four. 1960! How my ...

The Spectacled Bear: March 2011
http://thespectacledbear.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Friday, 25 March 2011. MY 50 TOP TV THEME TUNES! Number 7: Lost in Space. Someone had the bright idea of taking the children’s classic “The Swiss Family Robinson” and turned it into “The Space Family Robinson” in comic form. I remember watching the first episode and being enchanted by. 1) The spooky theme tune (written by the great John Williams; he who wrote the music for Jaws, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Star Wars, and many, many more). And, perhaps most of all,. MY 50 TOP TV THEME TUNES! When I starte...

The Spectacled Bear: FIFTY FOODIE TUNES! (50 to 41)
http://thespectacledbear.blogspot.com/2011/07/fifty-foodie-tunes.html
Saturday, 23 July 2011. I am a gourmand. I love to eat. I have eaten wonderful food all over the world and in all sorts of places and I am therefore now, in my fifties, a very fat bloke. Here are some gourmet tunes that I shall post each dinner time as I wait for my snail porridge to cook. 50 Herbie Hancock: Canteloupe Island. The only melon I really like is watermelon and Hancock did of course have a big hit with his Watermelon Man. 49 Las Ketchup: The Ketchup Song. 48 Sammy Davis Jr: The Candy Man.

The Spectacled Bear: FIFTY FOODIE TUNES (20 to 11)
http://thespectacledbear.blogspot.com/2011/08/fifty-foodie-tunes-20-to-11.html
Thursday, 4 August 2011. FIFTY FOODIE TUNES (20 to 11). 20 Herb Alpert: A Taste of Honey. I like honey well enough but its consistency troubled me as a boy, so I preferred jam on my toast. These days, the only time I consciously consume honey is when I have it with lemon and paracetamol to ease a sore throat. Although, on holiday in Istanbul recently, I became fond of yogurt with walnuts and honeycomb on top for breakfast. 19 Dean Martin: That’s Amore. 8216;Pasta fazool’. 18 Millie: My Boy Lollipop.

The Spectacled Bear: December 2008
http://thespectacledbear.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, 21 December 2008. Thank you, Norway! The lovely Norwegians have sent us a lovely big tree, as they always do, that sits proudly in the middle of Trafalgar Square. Oh Tannenbaum, Oh Tannenbaum. Wie grün sind Deine Blätter. My lovely partner, Queer Royale. Likes a Christmas tree, so we have one. He has done a good job. It's a handsome tree, in a commanding position on top of the dining table, and he has only half of the decorations appended yet. High drama chez nous. Video) but we seem to have lost...

The Spectacled Bear: MY 50 TOP TV THEME TUNES!
http://thespectacledbear.blogspot.com/2011/07/my-50-top-tv-theme-tunes.html
Friday, 22 July 2011. MY 50 TOP TV THEME TUNES! NUMBER 1: WHITE HORSES. When I began to make this list, I had to winnow the tunes chosen down to fifty and kept changing my mind. These top three were easy to decide though. Any one of them could have been my Number 1. This deserves the top spot because it’s a wonderful piece of music that instantly lifts my mood. It makes me feel it’s a Saturday morning and the day is full of youthful hope and possibility! Number 2: Robinson Crusoe. Number 3: The Avengers.
