Playlist by Algernon

Continuing on with last weeks theme I’ve found some more tunes which spent time in the top 100 in their respective years.  The television programs were seen as confronting at the time. “Are you being serve” was a master of the double entendre though no pussy jokes in this one. The advertisement here is not meant to be political statement. I can’t recall any election advert in the past 40 odd years but I remember this one.
