I always find the song at the end of only fools and horses. Hookey street. Not really sure why, but it should raise a smile.

I love em. Romeo and Julliet is a beautiful song.

I once went to a fancy dress party as Mark Knofner but I lost my guitar and people just thought I was supposed to be a tennis player...

I've been to a funeral where "Going Underground" was played. I thought it was ace at the time, I was about 17. Now I think it might be a bit obvious.

I'd like something really rousing and nationalistic. Land of Hope and Glory. or Send the Buggers Back perhaps.

:Dlol. Don't get me started on Dire Straits.

I class them as the 'mad about motor cars person' band. Someone like Jeremy Clarkson. Someone who wears cowboy boots, jeans, open necked shirt and a jacket.

My dad's mate is one of these very people. He used to own his own garage, and he dressed like that, and guess what his favourite album of all time was? Brothers in Arms. In fact he thought that Dire Straits were the greatest band ever to stalk the earth.

I want time of your life, Greenday. It was played as the closing song by Sky at the end of the 1999 playoff final and was perfect for the occasion. I was of course at Wembley that day but taped the sky coverage.

That made me laugh.

Don't know what song really, if I die with a hard on: I'm still standing by Elton John.
