    Who else came here because of early 2022 Tesco advert campaign? Just reminded me of the simply, joyousness of those days. Cheesy maybe but comforting and kind and the sort of stuff we need more of today really. Makes you appreciate the talent of an entertainer able to bridge gaps and bring people together. Thanks Cilla, ta rah Chuck! ❤️

    I’m a fairly harsh critic of vocalists, but I don’t understand the hate on this. It’s a TV show theme, not a reach for a #1 spot on the pop charts. And, it’s no more cheesy or poorly arranged than the Full House, Love Boat, or Lavern & Shirley themes, and people still slobber on themselves remembering those tunes. I find this quite relaxing. 🤷‍♂️

      She worked with Burt Bacharach in the 60s and he was critical of her voice. Someone described it as the "Cilla Honk". I think the criticism of her is all compounded. Her voice could be absolutely awful, but she was also a deeply unpleasant person in real life. Dionne Warwick for example absolutely hated her. The fact she hosted very mawkish TV shows didn't endear her to a lot of people either.

      ​@@glowbeauty1674hmm. The world was actually pretty grim. Huge amounts of unemployment, AIDS, the threat of nuclear war. Social attitudes that would be absolutely shocking to people now. Greed became institutionalised. There was some good music and culture, but in many ways it was a form of escapism from the rest of life. If you want a song that sums up the early 80s in particular, look up "Ghost town" by the specials.

When the brand name is said, the music crescendos to “Surprise Surprise”.
