Hanging around... (Hanging a - rooouwnd)
Yes, we're hanging around (hanging a - rooouwnd)
Stranglers - circa 1981 ish
I have no reference point for this little gem - completely random - although it does make an appearance on a punk compilation album I own - but I bought that ten (?) years ago - one of those rash petrol forecourt purchases...
This morning it appeared in my head before I had even opened my eyes - my higher level functionality having been booted by the sound of my younger son shouting "daddy!" at 6:10am
It also set me off on a train of thought about songs you used to hear all the time, but not even Radio Two would play anymore - e.g. Golden Brown also by the Stranglers - mind you in the case of that song, we should thank the lord for small mercies.

You do not hear the Monster Mash very often these days, Furry. Nor the Laughing Policeman nor the Laughing Gnome. Ed Stewpot used to play them on a weekly basis in my childhood.
'Ello darlin'. Do you remember that, Furry?
Ou sont les neiges d'antan? Indeed, indeed
