I’m a fan of the work of Dennis Potter. The thought has occurred to me that perhaps J.K. Rowling named Harry in his honor. He’s the sort of writer I suspect she would appreciate. If you don’t know who I’m talking about — and I’m sure Brian Sibley does — please look him up now.
When I hear this song I think of Dennis Potter, and if you don’t like what you’re about to hear, don’t tell me, because I think this is wonderful. It’s sometimes easy to forget what made certain performers from long ago great. Here’s Bing Crosby at his best.

Good Lord, I thought I knew you better than this, Dougie! You, too have an incredibly wide range of musical tastes. Yesterday in the mall, I heard a really cool new song at the mall that caught my interest but Molly couldn’t remember the name of the band! It had a totally different, unique sound to it. It had a synchopated backbeat that was very impressive for a bunch of young kids.
