When I was a young lad there used to be a comedy program called The Morecambe and Wise Show on TV in England (Click Here to see the Morecambe and Wise entry on the Wikipedia).
Theirs was a gently sort of humor that the whole family could enjoy. No swearing or anything "off color" – just good, clean, wholesome fun.
They would end each show by singing the song "Bring Me Sunshine" in such a way that it always left a smile on one's face.

Well, the reason I'm waffling on about this is that one of my fellow UBM/DeusM editors just sent out a link to a really good video on Vimeo. This is the Jive Aces Music Video of "Bring Me Sunshine" and I have to say that it really made me feel happy (I'm still smiling as I pen these words).

Great Video Max. And is that a ukelele the main guy is playing?

So I remember them fondly too. Though the scenes where they were sitting up in bed together wearing pyjamas make me scratch my head a bit now I think about them...
