WoW - it's just one of those tunes, and as MtheGM said in the other thread, it makes an effective brass band piece. The other ballad, BTW, is Fause Foodrage which is worth looking into.

As for the other business, one legend has it that Britt Ekland insisted on on bum-double because she didn't like her own - apparently she described it as being like a ski-slope.
