>>>This song caused some grief in my (long late) father's youth. There is a line in the song something like 'is Arsenal going to win the cup?' They would bang the table at this line, to make the needle jump so that it said " 'is arse.. 'is arse.. 'is arse" - and their mum would clout them for it. After a while, the misuse caused the needle to jump all by itself.. and she hit them anyway.<<<

That just caused me to laugh so hard, others in the room wanted to know what was so Ca ne fait Rien funny! Lord!

Reminds me of some stunts I hear my father and Uncle used to get up to. They used to do something wicked over a recording of Lily Pons' recording of Tales from The Vienna Woods and get clouted for it. Now I'm going to have to ask.
