You can, er, buy it on iTunes if you like.

They are without words, and without music.

March 18th, 2010 2:57am Report this commentIf I've interpreted the subtle nuances of this grand opus, the Lib Dems are trying to persuade the listener that if he votes for them at the general election they will personify the difference in something between now and then.

March 18th, 2010 9:09am Report this commentLiberal Democrat Community Choir, eh? How hard they must have pondered over the need for a focal word like "Community". But "Choir" is a bit far-fetched for what sounds like 2 voices, with 3-4 more in the background. I propose instead: the OK Chorale.
And to play devil's advocate for a moment, it seems unfair to blame the Libdems for such vacuous, mindless, tuneless tosh. The blame lies with the halfwits who decided that having an "official election song" was either a necessary or a desirable thing for a political party to have. Just like the World Cup, in fact, except that the terraces are empty.
