I also listen to uplifting songs and ones that I have fond memories of. Here is one that reminds me how good my life is. When I heard it first on the radio, re 1990/91 in a drug/alcohol treatment centre in Aberdeen on a wintery January day, I thought 'that's what I need' and made it to Thailand a year or so later.

With all this talk of The Goons, reminded me of this. Missed this when originally broadcast in Oct 72, but remember watching it early 90's on a re-run. Definitely one to cheer me up.

I used to love the Goons and bought a lot of their shows on CD, but Milligan was my least favourite character. Sadly, other attractions have taken my time and I haven't listened to them for many years. Strangely, the best memories of my wife are of when we lived in the village and I'd sing the Ying Tong song to her as we rode on her m'bike. She just loved that song. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There you go - they're universal. For me Spike was my comedy hero, and i was lucky enough to meet him once courtesy of a friend who worked for the BBC. Of course Sellars was also wonderful - who can forget The Pink Panther! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
