When The Beat Drops Out

Returning home from our trip to the Thames Barrier we were surprised to hear loud music coming from the kitchen… but not as surprised as we were by the sight that greeted us as we entered the room: Polly and Billi with their children Johnson and Johnson together with Antony and Tiny Toy were all pogo-ing maniacally while singing at the tops of their little voices, 'When The Bee Jumps Out! When The Bee Jumps Out!'

Wilson at first threw up his arms in horror… before joining in with the dancing and singing.

It transpires they were singing along to Marlon Roudette's hit record 'When The Beat Drops Out' and had mis-heard the lyrics. There aren't many songs written about bees so I didn't disabuse them; instead I promised to buy them a copy from the iTunes Store so they could listen to it whenever they want.

It was an easy mistake to make, though — have a listen yourself and see what I mean:
