Pah!
That's Dionne Warwick's song, not Cilla Blo*dy Black's. God, that's really set my teeth on edge!
Not blaming you, Johnny. Sorry!

Yes, but Sunetra is a scouser... that's the reason they've gone for that version.

Bleurgh! It's an abomination!
Worst song in that lot for me is Live and Let Die. Echoing cavity of a song. That's two songs by Wings and it's only week five. Is it McCartney's testimonial year or something?
The Monkees, on the other hand... a guilty pleasure. Though they could have gone even better with the 13th Floor Elevators if jaunty, bright and rickenbackerish sixties pop is required. Love that group...

My biggest annoyance is the use of "I'm Still Standing" for something that isn't Jill's Jive! After Harry's Salsa and now Jake's Quickstep, is nothing sacred?

I can't even find Edmundo Ros' version on Youtube! Maybe it just means it'll be the male singer on the night.

He was a band leader. Mainly instrumental stuff.
Found his La Cumparista.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPCvuILSuw0
This would be a more Argentine version. Much earthier.

So I wonder what Edmundo Ros' version of I Yi Yi will be like.

I still wouldn't have approved of him using Jill Halfpenny's song! Wasn't best pleased with Harry using it either!

Ah, thank you! Judging by this, I imagine we'll just get the Carmen Miranda version by a different name!
