SOUP James Craig, Drew Barcode, Fang, Ben Farrington, Malcolm Littler, Linda Miller, Phil Powell, James Smith, Nick Southwood and Brian W. She Loves You (1963, The Beatles). One of the five Beatles songs which simultaneously occupied the top 5 places in the American charts. One of only two songs to be recorded by the Beatles in German, as "Sie Liebt dich". Sunny Afternoon (1966, The Kinks). The first song Ray Davies wrote after suffering a nervous breakdown in February 1966. Covered by The Stereophonics, Cathy Dennis, Jimmy Buffett, Brian Bennett, the Standells and Bob Geldof. Milenberg Joys (Trad./Jelly Roll Morton, 1923) Written by the self-proclaimed (and disputed) "Inventor Of Jazz". It Must be Love (Siffre version, 1971) Written and recorded by Labi Siffre in 1971, it reached number 14 in the charts. The later cover by Madness achieved greater success. In the late 1970s Siffre found himself supporting Olivia Newton John on a US tour, and also writing entries for "A Song for Europe". It is not known how much this contributed to his 5-year withdrawal from the music business. Siffre also wrote the anti-Apartheid song "(Something Inside) So Strong" and has written several volumes of poetry. I'll See you in my Dreams (1924 Kahn and Jones/Joe Brown version, 1924). The 1952 film of the same name was a biography of Gus Kahn and features many of his songs, sung by Doris Day and Danny Thomas. Performed by Joe Brown on the ukulele as the finale of the George Harrison tribute concert, "Concert For George", in 2002. Who Do you think You are Kidding, Mr Hitler? (Perry and Taverner). As the theme tune to Dad's Army, this was sung by Bud Flanagan. Unlike the other music played on the series, this song was written for the show rather than being an original wartime song. |
