Hey, no need to be ashamed of old Elton - he may be as mad as a brush but he did write the odd good song, all those decades ago.

2. Cat Stevens - Father and Son

Yes! And your prize is... a link to some very strange Chinese funk! It's the theme tune to the 70s Chinese tv version of Saiyuki, and it cracks me up no end.

Monkey Magic

It's from Cabaret. I wouldn't know the song name, though. : )
