I always thought Jona Lewie was a one hit wonder with "Stop the Cavalry." I had no idea he did "Always in the kitchen at parties" until my dh and sil were talking about it at the weekend Xmas Blush

I like his voice - it is sort of nice/weird.

I need to write a Christmas hit single. I bet Jonah Louie is still raking in the royalties from Stop the Cavalry.

I knew that.

Redrubyblues - have you ever seen the film About a Boy? Hugh Grant plays someone who lives off the royalties from a Christmas song.

Get your pen out.

I only knew it when the Ikea ad came out and I googled the song! I'd never heard it before the ad though.
