That sounds like

Whilst supervising my son´s watching of children´s TV I noticed the theme tune to the Koala Brothers <this link here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LX8HqXspWqo > sounds a lot like a song I heard on the radio a bit, I did research and found it was the tune "Dance to Joy Division" by The Wombats <click here to listen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCf84ov2MZ4 >.  Does anyone agree?  The version of the Koala Bros theme on Youtube isn´t that good.  I am not sure which came first.  Surely there is scope for a remix Koala Bros vs The Wombats, note the link between the two which is antipodean animals.  I remember when I was young I was mega impressed when the drummer from Iron Maiden appeared on the Sooty Show <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnE_8oeDj88> (I like the fact that the Youtube poster of this clip got it on a video tape in a charity shop in Kilburn for 49p - the only thing I ever bought on a blank video tape from a charity shop was some well pony WWF wrestling!).  Anyway any other sound alikes out there?

You are incorrect, remember Punt and Dennis VHS from the Kidderminster area.

Did I purchase that vid? Not sure, although the concept of collective guilt is an interesting concept. I meant that the P&D was in a box with pictures and writing of P&D not recorded on a blank E90 for example.
