You couldn't make it up ...

Some drama is on the TV. The music fades up, and a familiar voice sings ...

Imagine me and you, I do
I think about you day and night, it's only right
To think about the girl you love and hold her tight
So happy together


And my housemate, 22, says "I like this song - I love Jason Donovan!" (click here if you are lucky enough not to be familiar with the 90s UK soap/pop pin-up).

When I had stopped laughing long enough to type, I found that The Turtles' hit Happy Together is the 44th most performed song of the 20th Century. Up there with Mrs Robinson and Let it Be. Who'd have thunk it.

Great song though.
