Id like to buy the world a.....

This jig was inspired by recent discussions:

Who can come up with a better name for the Br***sh Isles?

Why are we wasting our time arguing about stupid political things that don't matter anyway?

Any resemblance to TV commercial songs is strictly accidental.
This jig is by no means responsible for anyone, anywhere getting along.

I wanted a happy face with fangs dripping blood and big blood shot eyes, but alas, it was not to be found... 8-)

I also should have given that mutation in its original key of c minor...

Melancholy little tune there. I wish more would join us in this musical unity... we may be creating the music that leads to world peace. :)

Hey, it has even been converted to 'sheetmusic'. Who says Jeremy hasn't got a sense of humour? ~ Nah, in this case, more like a sense of the bizarre. 8-)

You keep forgetting your nose MH, which has me worried...
