Robson and Jerome 'unchained Melody / The White Cliffs of Dover'.

Needless to say I didn't buy a copy of that one!

The songs I remember from Basic training were Edwyn Collins 'Girl like you' and Boo Radleys 'Wake up Boo'.

They were overplayed on FOX FM whilst at Halton and the last thing I needed to hear was "Wake up it's a beautiful morning" whilst making a bedpack!

No comment, though Hey Jude was a bit of a depressing song to 15/16 year olds who have just joined up, one guy tried to hang himself and another ran away.
