A Song for Cameron

There’s a bit of meme going around at the moment of various blogger’s choosing theme tunes for their blogs all of which led me to the realisation that, thus far, David Cameron hasn’t got a tune.

Barack Obama had a tune…

Bill Clinton had a tune…

Tony had a tune… (sorry!)

And Maggie had loads… (not that she would have wanted them)

But as for Dave, there doesn’t seem to be anything on the horizon.

Okay, so there are a few obvious contenders, like this…

And Jarvis nails its pretty well, of course…

Sadly, there isn’t a video of Frank Zappa’s cover of The Clovers’ doo-wop classic ‘Cocksucker’s Ball’ so we’ll have to make do the original in honour of D-Cam’s days as a Bullingdon Boy… (definitely NSFW audio)

And I’ve always thought this one by the Beatles fits pretty well…

Although its possible that Beau Bo’s come closest so far to capturing the essence of the Tories…

Tell you what. Let’s throw this one open to the floor… can you think of a better theme tune for D-Cam than any of these?

You missed Boris’ tune.

Fuck me, Larry, there’s not enough mind-bleach in the world to cope with that…

Funnily enough, I was thinking about this recently (oh fuck, how sad am I?).

I came to the conclusion that this works pretty well for Cameron.

David Cameron as Mr. Blonde

On the Zappa theme, try http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8y0JLPQl94 and substitute Bobby Brown with David Cameron.

Cor! I’ve still got that album on vinyl. I’m not the only one!

Would this work?

More great 70s stuff, but you’ll get the drift.

I think Noel (no not Gallagher) put it best…

I can’t get the Jarvis link to work. Is it this one from ‘Children of Men’?

Pretty much sums up politicians in general.
