Re: Imagine- Simon and Garfunkel
Yeah tremendous is the right word. i love watching stuff like this, even when it is a little embellished. I was a bit too young to appreciate the political implications but the music is great. The Cecilia story made me smile.

I'm making sure I record it. As another aside; was listening to the ken bruce music quiz this morning, as i do most days. There was a scouse contestant who fell at the first hurdle. he was asked something like "complete the title of this George Harrison solo hit...."My sweet....." . ken had to tell him it was "lord" and the scouser admitted he'd never heard of it. The poor bloke fell apart thereafter.

Re: Imagine- Simon and Garfunkel
I only managed a top score of 222 (and that's with scoring extra playing the bells and whistles version!). Think I'll just have another wee go.......
