These are children's songs. British Light Music is light classical music. Here's another, can anyone remember the radio programme this belonged to? It's a train of course.
British Light Music - Coronation Scot

I saw my first GS being born. Driving home later they were playing "The first time ever I saw your face"

Walking on sunshine - always cheers me up.

You'll never walk alone.

My husband was in hospital abroad and as I walked down the corridor to his room I could hear this coming out of all the other rooms. I got to my husbands room and said "Would you like the T.V on .. Liverpool is playing". I don't know what cheered my husband up most; the fact that there was football on TV or that somehow I, definitely not a football fan, had worked this out.

Yes, Liverpool were playing the local big name team.

I saw a mouse! Where? There on the stair!
In a windmill in Old Amsterdam (Ronnie Hilton)

Oh yes!
I loved the Sweet.

I just called to say I love you.

I don't like the song, but remember my girlie standing (holding on) and swaying along to it.

Wham! Wake Me Up Before You Go Go

As we were in the car on the way to the hospital to see our new granddaughter for the first time, Isn't She Lovely by Stevie Wonder came in the radio. She was (and is) lovely

My boomerang won't come back!

I saw a mouse! Where? There on the stair! Where on the stair? Right there!
A little mouse with clogs on, going clip clippety clop on the stair.

I'm a big fan of British Light Music (a forgotten genre!) so Puffin' Billy really cheers me up. You will remember this if you listened to Children's Favourites on the radio.

It's so infectious, you can't be sad with this playing:
Classic BBC Radio Theme ~ Puffin' Billy

Crocodile Rock

I remember being at an Elton John concert and all the youngsters sitting next to us got up and started bopping in the aisle 😁

He wasn't doing too bad for a 70 year old!

Si, si, je suis un rock star.

Who sang it?
One of the rolling stones?
I like it.
