UK members - Help me out here. - What documentary tv series was this the theme music to? :think: :think:
According to wiki, "Used as the theme music for Granada Television's watchdog broadcast This is your right running from 1972 to 1986."

I never heard of it myself but it is your part of the country.
Yup. That's the one! I'm surprised you don't remember it. :-)
All I could think about was "World In Action" and "Weekend World":-

It's a piece of piss to be cowiz, but it's not cowiz to be a piece of piss. Or something like that.

Yes. I have a hard-on for Neurosis. Here they are collaborating with some woman called Jarobe.

McDermott on his own-

And just for laughs, the ultimate vocals:

Lakmé By Delibes.
Act 1
No.2 - The Flower Duet.

This was the best audio quality I could find. Also, this is a somewhat abridged version.
The language is French - I included a translation I found:-




Under the thick dome, where the white jasmine
With the rose gathers,
To the flowered river bank, with morning laughter,
Come, let us go down together.

Gently let us slip from the pleasant rising flow,
Let us follow the fleeting current
In the shimmering stream,
Without any care,
Come, let us reach the bank,
Where the spring waters slumber
And the bird, the bird, she sings.

Under the thick dome where the white jasmine
Ah! We descend
Together!

But I don't know what sudden dread,
takes me over, when my father goes alone,
to their cursed town,
I tremble, I tremble of fear!
So the god Ganesa protects him,
Up to where the source runs joyful,
The swans with wings of snow,
let us go gather the blue lotus,
near the swans with wings of snow,
let us gather the blue lotus.

Under the thick dome where the white jasmine
Ah! We descend
Together! Under the thick dome where white jasmine
With the roses entwined together
On the river bank covered with flowers laughing in the morning

Let us descend together
Gently floating on its charming risings,
On the river’s current
On the shining waves,
One hand reaches,
Reaches for the bank,
Where the spring sleeps,
And the bird, the bird sings.

Under the thick dome where the white jasmine
Ah! We descend
Together!

Brilliant video - that must have taken ages to do! That's the FZ:OZ version with Norman Gunston guesting on twattery - not at all the best version of the song.
