@Whoopij1 Thank you so much for uploading all these TH clips. They have given me so much pleasure. Some magical about Anneka just descending on these beautiful landscapes. Can't explain it, something uncanny about it. A strange experiment in futurity too as Kenneth,Wincey and the (usually delight...

  Ska meets Italo Disco (as if Baltimora had joined The Specials).

  Undeniably catch-catchy, even if the video does look as if it was shot in 1986.

  This is a great track.

  Something extreme about it, demonic almost...from a sort of alternative "warp" sixties this was a bit less about peace and love than the actual one.

  George Galloway played this as the sign out tune on his show last week as an ironic gesture (and without comment) on the state visit of Barack Obama to the UK. Very good, and song itself is both a wonderful artefact of its period (it is very significant that the date is 1940, and the song might n...

  Fabulous, you can see why this was such a massive hit. It channels just about everything that was hot in 1969/1970 and although clearly highly commercial pop there is a sort of Underground vibe going on too.

  The French anthem at the beginning is a joke isn't it? If I recall correctly this segment was shown as part of a TV special to celebrate the arrival of satellite telecommunications called "One World". For most countries a title would appear explaining what and where you were seeing, but the BBC s...

British TV seemed to develop very fully in the 60s. By 1968 we had had The Prisoner, The Forsyte Saga, Face to Face, Play for Today, TW3 and Coronation Street. Not many more years later and you could chalk up Civilisation and The Family. Many, many good things since then but arguably nothing better.

  Tintinnabulist pop from the early 2000s....such an ecstatic song, no wonder so many people love it.

  I suppose the video should be charming, showing a band that doesn't take itself too seriously. Does it not look as if it might have been made in 1982 though?

  I always though the second series of Look Around You was terribly underappreciated. The early eighties in the UK were deeply, deeply weird....the country was coming apart at the seams and the mainstream media always gave you this numbingly normative. The bit I love here is the Freddie Starr char...
