"Keep stirring the pudding" at 1.38 on Christmas afternoon?! No! No! No! He's a worse cook than Fanny Cradock! "The millennium prayer" - Cliff Richard Promoted to the religious community, a group who were unfamiliar with the CD single and might have preferred Cliff's seven-incher. George Michael was unimpressed. He told Capital FM "Just knowing there has been a Christian campaign for it - I think it is so exploitative of people's religion, it really is. I think there are people out there who feel it is their duty to buy this record on the eve of the millennium. That is a really horrible reason for a number one record." #TOTP #CliffRichard

#JukeboxFridayNight has theme #MusicMusiciansAndMashups, songs about making music from existing tunes and lyrics. What better mashup is there than "One Song to the Tune of Another". Here's what happened for Christmas 1999. They've had a letter from a certifiable lunatic, who suggests singing "The Lord's Prayer" to the tune of "Auld lang syne". What a foolish idea. Here's "Bachelor boy" sung to the tune of "Auld lang syne". And the converse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQkKBZIOe-4&t=227s #ISIHAC #CliffRichard #AtThePiano #ColinSell

To me, Cliff Richard and Freddie Mercury always seemed an unlikely pair of friends. The thing I didn't know was that Richard was born in India and because of his accent and complexion he, strangely, faced anti-Indian racism when his family moved back to Britain. Freddie Mercury's family was from India and he was educated there in a British type boarding school. When he fled to Britain with his family from Zanzibar he also had to deal with racism. So Cliff and Freddie actually had a weirdly shared/similar background. I think they only performed together once, singing It's In Everyone of Us as part of a charity performance of the musical Time back in 1988. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9R1H-5Dtpw #CliffRichard#FreddieMercury
