Sunday Morning Music

Just because I'm in the mood, how about a few of Flanders & Swann's animal songs?

Let's start with the gnu.

Then there's the wild boar.

The wompom may be animal, vegetable or mineral, but as a fictional whatsit, I think we can include it in this morning's selection.

And, of course, their most famous animal song - the hippopotamus. I particularly like the Russian translation in the middle.

Ah, that warms the cockles of this formerly African boy's heart . . .
