Something to keep you giggling on the campaign trail

By | Sat 4th April 2015 - 9:15 am

Possibly not if you are going canvassing though. You can just imagine knocking an a door and then an image of Sky News’ mash up of Clegg, Miliband, Cameron and Farage singing Boyzone’s I Swear pops into your mind unbidden. By the time the voter opens the door, you are giggling, and possibly drooling. Not the best way to win votes.

The thing about this is that after Thursday night, it seems so dated with just the four of them.

It might not be as good as Eurovision’s Greatest Hits last night, but we hope it made you smile.

    It’s definitely not as good as Eurovision 60. My partner and I had the pleasure to be there for that show which was absolutely amazing. Listening to Nicole sing “Ein Bisschen Frieden” I found myself surprised that a song that channelled the 1982 zeitgeist could still be so relevant today. Perhaps I also remembered Noel Coward’s line “Strange the power of cheap music”. But as ever, Eurovision shows the European Ideal at its best: inclusive, diverse, and united.

    Like the Eurovision, the majority of the contestants on that video will be unemployed by the end of May though one might struggle on for a few years before being dumped by his record company. Hilarious though.

    Paul, I am so jealous. You have no idea how much I wanted to be Nicole in 1982. I still remember the German as well as the English lyrics.
