Tripped over Ciccone and her huge knockers...

There was quite considerable debate today, for The Eighties were a long time ago, and the Mind plays funny tricks upon you.

Todays discourse was on Xmas 1st number ones of the 80s, and the debate was on the title (and subject) of a 1982 Xmas shit.


Now, this is all down to René out of 'Allo 'Allo, and that Renato bird. My recollection is that their now legendary musical hit was "Save your love" - however, some people recall differently, and are convinced it was called "Shave your love".


Now, them Italian types are renowned for their friskyness, and I recall the great fat french shopkeeper lobbing Cornettoes and Cadbury Roses up at the bird on the balcony, but I definately don't recall any Shaven Haven action going on!


Of course, it's entirely possible that a song about pubic follicle removal could get to No1 in the 80s - after all, Relax was all about bumsex, gay blowies and Holly Johnson jizzing over arses.

Shave your love, my darling
shave your love
For summer nights* with moon and stars above.
A serenade I long to sing you
The reddest rose** I always bring you
Save your love for Roma and for me.
He could be right...

* COZ SUMMER NIGHTS ARE HOT, AND YOU DON'T WANT YOUR BUSH GIVING YER BITS A BIT OF A SWEAT

** REDDEST ROSE? I'LL BET!! RED BLOODY RAW AND SORE AFTER THE APPLICATION OF A RAZOR TO YOUR DOWN BELOW JUMANJI.
