I can remember the first time I heard In the Air Tonight as if it was yesterday, it was in the Rummer Tavern and someone played it on the juke box, I put 50 p in it straight away and played it ten times.

    However, I’ve never listened to or watched up it before and got the reaction I did when I watched this video just now - talk about not knowing whether to laugh or cry! All I can say is that I’m in a much better mood now than I was before I played it.

    I dare say quite a few of you will have seen this already, but, for those who haven’t, I heartily recommend it, there’s some great comments as well.

    Bob, did you post the right YouTube link here as I was taken to video of two boys jabbering away about something but I couldn’t understand a word they were saying, so switched it off?

        Yes that was the one, it's a reaction video. Their reaction to hearing it for the first time.
        That's the whole point of bobs thread

                An Accountant mate of mine from back in those days didn't even bother with a combination lock on his briefcase. Freespirit.

                              Wouldn't it have been 0007 as most cases were 4 digit unless you had a special one 🤔
