10. Godlike records.
Divine vinyl records...

8. Probably lime flavoured.
Green Jelly - Three Little Pigs
7. Jester hoping for yuletide snow.
Danny Kaye was in The Court Jester... and White Christmas.

ReplyDeleteEven better.
DeleteNot a fairy tale, but when Peter Frampton was in The Herd they had a hit with 'Paradise Lost'. Perhaps one for your Epic Poems Top 10? I'm sure as an English teacher you could rattle one off in no time.
ReplyDeleteSomething similar is percolating.
