Have that all day … from Stratford East, of course.
Otherwise “I Don’t Live Today” by beautiful Jimi fits the bill admirably.
Bingo Little says
It was either that or WickedSkengMan4 by Stormzy.
deramdaze says
wtf is that?
Does it get in the Top 5 if the immediate family of “Stormzy” each buys a copy?
YIKES!!!
Just goggled “Stormzy” and the picture is of him at the launch of a Man. U. second kit. Obviously a sharp dressed Stormzy. Comes from Thornton Heath.
Oh, good call, Bingo!
Bingo Little says
Oh, go on then: Desiigner – Outlet
Moose the Mooche says
Max Bygraves: Not Even Good Enough For My Wheelie Bin.
Rob C says
That’s very kind of you Bingodude.
Actually, I’m more of a String Band man. Always saw early T Rex as The Monkees to The String Band’s Beatles, but no matter.
Here you go:
Bingo Little says
Astral high five, dude.
Rob C says
Back atcha. Etheric Fist Bump.
H.P. Saucecraft says
How’s the tardigrade situation looking? I haven’t been able to sleep nights.
Rob C says
We made peace and then I discovered Algon.
Beany says
What do you mean…IF? I already have one thanks.
Tiggerlion says
You aren’t the only one…
Bingo Little says
This is yours, tigger ; )
Tiggerlion says
I much prefer this one. Thank you
Bingo Little says
You’re welcome!
ganglesprocket says
I guess this is mine then…
Bingo Little says
Joy Division Oven Gloves, by Half Man Half Biscuit (off the Achtung Bono album, natch).
JustB says
I’m struggling to think of any for other people, but here’s an appropriate one for me.
Either that or
Bingo Little says
This is yours, Bob…
Moose the Mooche says
Every time I step out of my front door, this comes on.

Bloody nuisance it is.
Bingo Little says
I don’t particularly want to click play on that video at work. Is it the “Ain’t. No. Half. Stepping” one?
Moose the Mooche says
It’s mostly instrumental. The audio equivalent of a pair of leopardskin knee-high Ballys.
Tahir W says
Well stop doing it then.
Rigid Digit says
Officially called “Seventeen”, but it’s earlier title was “I’m A Lazy Sod”
The other alternative:
Henry Priestman – Old
Bingo Little says
Digit, yours is the theme tune from this…
Black Celebration says
My name is a song and by definition must be my theme.
“Celebrate the fact that you’ve seen the back of another black day”.
Can’t smile wide enough, me.
Bingo Little says
Au contraire, mon frere. Here you go…
Mike_H says
I’ll have this one.
Bingo Little says
I got you Mike….
Black Type says
Mine would have to be something by the Black Keys…’Thickfreakness’ would seem to fit the bill.
Bingo Little says
Here’s yours…
Black Celebration says
It’s all yours @blacktype – Bingo seems to have given both of us this toe-tapping tune. I will stick with the binky bonk rhythms of Depeche Mode.
Bingo Little says
You guys all look the same to me.
Gary says
H.P. Saucecraft says
Is this for me, Gary? This is about me, isn’t it?! Ooh, do tell me it’s my theme tune! *simper*
bricameron says
Look at you all going Me Sir! Me Sir!
No fuckin’ patience.
What am I going to do with you all?
😜
Bingo Little says
Burt’s theme…
H.P. Saucecraft says
Joe Dolce (real name Terry West) was briefly married to Frank Bough’s daughter Amanda. When the hits just stopped keepin’ on comin’ – with the release of follow-up “Sitta Down Youself”, Mandy filed for divorce, citing non-consummation – the first “celebrity” divorce to do so since Zsa Zsa Gabor’s ill-fated marriage to her driver “Cheetah” Chominsky. Dolce continues to appear on the balti-in-a-basket circuit in the North of England (me neither) where his encore is a spirited rendition of “Shaddap You Fuckin’ Face Bitch”, always dedicated to Mandy “Bitchface” Bough. He was arrested for vagrancy in 2013.
(Good choice, Bing, happy with it).
bricameron says
😂😂😂
Bingo Little says
Gary…
Gary says
Bingo…

H.P. Saucecraft says
Oh stop!
Paul Wad says
About 20 years ago my pool team were sort of the house team at Kings Cross snooker club. Once we had decided on the running order for the games you would have a look at which players were playing ahead of you (including your opponents, as you got to know most of the teams over the years) and then how many people had been feeding money into the jukebox, because we all tried our best to have our own theme song come on just as you took to the table. Mine was North Country Boy by The Charlatans, for we were the pool team of the London branch of the Barnsley FC Supporters Club after all. We all fully believed that by getting the timing right for our songs it gave us the edge for our game. Whether that was true was another matter.
That aside, my other theme song amongst my mates when I lived down in London was Rhinstone Cowboy, as they combined my love of country music with my scrawny frame (I was in my 20s back then) to nickname me the nine-stone cowboy.
Bingo Little says
Good stuff, Paul. Here’s yours…
slotbadger says
Oh, definitely mine 😉
bricameron says
Me Sir! Me Sir!
Here’s my impression of ‘Bargepole’.
Bingo Little says
bricameron…

bricameron says
I’m honoured, Bing.
retropath2 says
Nah, Bri’s chosen one off Guitar Heaven…..
Junior Wells says
The word on the street is that @MikeTheP is having a significant birthday, as they say, and is having a piss up at a Whisky Bar in Brisbane to mark the occasion..
I therefore nominate the following:
Sniffity says
Or this one
Bingo Little says
Junior, this is yours. Ours is not to reason why.
bricameron says
Is this as far as this thread’s gotten? All day? Oh dear…
bricameron says
Straight in at No1. Its Minibreakfast and “Right said Fred”.
minibreakfast says
I’ll take that. Or Tijuana Taxi.
H.P. Saucecraft says
Hey, Mini – I’m a big Herb & His Alperts fan myself. I think Going Places is his best, but I also highly rate Whipped Cream & Other Delights.
Sniffity says
Nothing to do with the sleeve art, of course.
minibreakfast says
Agreed. Although when it comes to parpage I favour the harder edge of the Torero Band, who get much more air time chez Breakfast.
H.P. Saucecraft says
“air time”
minibreakfast says
It’s mainly air.
Bingo Little says
This is mini’s….
minibreakfast says
Oh yes. Dawn shredding atop a hill. Marvellous.
bricameron says
I’ve got him.
H.P. Saucecraft.
bricameron says
He will never know though because he refuses to hear the funkiest thing his guitar hero has ever done because somehow he thinks it diminishes his memories.
