But, Baz, isn't that what multi-tracking is for???

OK, so let me get this straight, you want me to do a multi-tracked version of Wuthering Heights, for all the forum to ~~have a good laugh at~~ listen to?

Mind you, the Bobby McFerrin version of 'Drive' might be fun to try...

I'm listening to Pick of the Pops on iPlayer at the moment. 1978. The No.1 record this week in that year was Wuthering Heights. Is it a bit concerning that I can sing this at pitch???

It would be more concerning if you could do the weird hand movements as well.

Nah, I can't do them

I can.

Methinks someone is having a bit of a laugh with the programming

I wonder if anyone has written/phoned in with any comments?

I do love the Peer Gynt pieces, though.

If I ever get married I'd like to go in to an organ arrangement of Peer Gynt (Morning).

I haven't looked into whether such a thing exists...

As a church musician I know quite a few organists - the problem might be working out how to choose one person without upsetting anyone else.

I had to laugh when somebody told me they wanted the hymn that was to the tune of a football chant. It didn't take me too long to work out it was "Bread of Heaven! otherwise known as "You're not singing anymore!"
