A thread to post appearances of Jeff's lyrics in real life.
"I often sit alone up in a tree Waving to the ones that wave at me I think well just how stupid can they be Waving to a man up in a tree"

From BBC Breakfast this morning www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b084j9rd -
Just listen what music the BBC have decided to use for this feature. Is this the instrumental version?

I saw that this morning - I think they have a way of sampling the instrumental bits and sticking them together. Makes you wonder why they bothered using the song if they weren't going to include the lyrics. Most people probably wouldn't have known what it was just from the music.

Most people probably wouldn't have known what it was just from the music. This is why I love whoever it is in charge of music at the BBC . It's so subtle, in a way that it wouldn't have been if Jeff had been singing over the top! It's like a secret message only those in the know will know.

"Bird on a wing goes floating by but there's a teardrop in his eye".
Reality check: birds don't cry (not with tears at least).
