kitten kettle petal mitten package?
the pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle?
When tweetle beetles fight,
it's called a tweetle beetle battle.
And when they battle in a puddle,
it's a tweetle beetle puddle battle.
AND when tweetle beetles battle with paddles in a puddle,
they call it a tweetle beetle puddle paddle battle.

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittensHa!! What do I win?! What do I win?!
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with string
These are a few of my favourite things
Cream coloured ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleighbells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favourite things
When the bee stings
When the dog bites
When I'm feeling bad
I simply remember my favourite things
And then I don't feel so sad

I like the Elvis Costello line that goes something like:
"I'm in hell/they play My Favorite Things all the time/but it's always the Julie Andrews version/and never the John Coltrane one."

Ooh, I had "Ulysses". Silky Slim's is hard. It isn't that one that goes something like "down in the West Texas town of El Paso, I fell in love with a Mexican girl... blah, blah, night time would find me in Rosa's cantina....????
funambulist, I'm not even trying yours because I never see videos.
Really nice idea, seanyboy! Okay, guess this easy one: 1, 2, or guess this band: 1, 2, 3, 4 .

taz: tsk! but it is easy, I promise, a very famous band. I just put the video bit in as an extra hint...
Once you get the first picture it is becomes rather obvious. The whole sequence is a bit in the chorus. There, I'm not giving any more clues! :)

(alternative first word for easier version... but that other picture is so much funnier)

So I'll offer you one last song I just heard on the radio, the easiest I can think of, especially if you cheat with a little google help:
what song is the radio playing?
