LadBaby new Christmas charity single with Ronan Keating.

Instead of 'Don't stop believing' it's called 'Don't stop me eating'.
I think the money is to help food banks.

"Bohemian Rhapsody" - Vitamin String Quartet.
Another sunrise with my sad captains, with who I choose to lose my mind,
And if it's all we only pass this way but once, what a perfect waste of time.

Better known as the music the BBC uses for its London Marathon coverage.

Been watching a lot of 60s music videos on the That's TV |Scotland channel.

It's interesting because the majority of them predate what we would know as a music video.

There's a lot of archive stuff on grainy video from (presumably) TV variety shows of the day, one or two clips lifted from movies (Dean Martin performing "Ain't That A Kick In the Head", from the 1960 version of "Ocean's 11" for example) the odd modern recording from a concert (Simon and Garfunkel's "The Boxer"), and a few that seem specially made on film ("Have I the Right" by The Honeycombs).

Interestingly, Tony Bennett generally gets the credit for "inventing" the genre in 1956, with a filmed recording of "Stranger in Paradise".
