We’ve heard that some of your favourite artists from the 1960s are revisiting their most famous hits, rewriting the song titles and lyrics to accommodate ageing Baby Boomers. What do you think of the following song titles?

‘How Can You Mend A Broken Hip’, The Bee Gees

‘Mrs Brown, You’ve Got a Lovely Walker’, Herman’s Hermits

Roberta Flack’s ‘The First Time Ever I Forgot Your Face’

Johnny Nash’s ‘I Can’t See Clearly Now’

We predict Paul Simon’s ‘Fifty Ways to Lose Your Liver’, The Commodores’ ‘Once, Twice, Three Times to the Bathroom’ and Procol Harum’s ‘A Whiter Shade of Hair’ will be classic hits once more.

Leo Sayer’s former hit is now titled, ‘You Make Me Feel Like Napping’.

Who wants to listen to The Temptations’ ‘Papa’s Got a Kidney Stone’ or ABBA’s ‘Denture Queen’?

Tony Orlando has ‘Knock Three Times On The Ceiling If You Hear Me Fall’.

The Helen Reddy hit will be re-released as ‘I Am Woman; Hear Me Snore’ and Lesley Gore’s tune will be now titled ‘It’s My Procedure (And I’ll Cry If I Want To)’.

Finally, we hear Willie Nelson will be re-releasing his hit song with the title ‘On The Commode Again’.
