Weird, I haven't heard it since the contest and I can still hum it -ditto Hallelujah.

Poupee de Cire, Poupee de Son FTW!

Sparks' Kimono My House - a brief pause for breath after This Town… And we're off again with Amateur Hour. It makes your head spin.

The funny / sad title sequence to the not very good 'Get Over It' where Ben Foster, after being dumped, is serenaded / taunted by Vitamin C and a marching band playing 'Love will Keep Us Together' - the flip side to that '500 Days of Summer' number.

'Tomorrow Belongs To Me' from 'Cabaret' - the way it builds, the expression on the old people's faces, and the payoff with the swastika armband and salute. Terrifying. And it inspired a brilliant and equally disturbing send-up on the Election Special of puppets and politics show 'Spitting Image'.

And the second side is cheekily referenced on Pulp's Walker-produced song 'Bad Cover Version'.
