So they just get up and bop to Taylor Swift and not “Sing Hosanna”?
Yes! All wrong man. Where was this when I wanted to have a sing song to 1D? Noooo, had to sit getting pins and needles in my arse belting out ‘KUMBAYA MY LORD’.

(Mind you, Kumbaya is a bop. 🫡)

Nothing has changed for men. I don’t see anyone saying: people produce sperm, or people have erectile dysfunction.
My brother is law is currently undergoing treatment for prostate cancer. All the info he has been received makes reference to ‘men/males etc’ none of it is sperm sprayer, owner of balls.

Yeah, those were the classics 🥲

It would’ve been Steps or something for me back then. Kids today don’t know how good they’ve got it.
 
Probably quite a lot of z list celebs lurking to see if they get a mention (hello Stace and Jake and other desperados)

also, an unpopular opinion which apparently scandalised my colleagues this morning: i think grease 2 is better than grease.
No way.

Cos like, at least the national anthem teaches you patriotism/pride in your country
Singing the national anthem at assembly is pure weird. American styles of pledging allegiance

I remember we sang pop songs on end of term days or when something was happening and it was a lot more enjoyable than the same songs. Probably less weird too given the religious aspect to it

What songs do they sing though? Watermelon Sugar? Tragedy?

A lot of pop songs have rude lyrics in, what a minefield!

In response to an earlier question, topics are no longer made someone emailed Mars and they confirmed they have been discontinued in the UK at least; not sure about anywhere else.

I can’t remember off the top of my head but I know something of Jess Glynne‘s was one. Which I thought was a pisstake in itself cos Jess Glynne is shite!
They also sang The Greatest Showman song. And something of Taylor Swift’s.

Oh trust me I agree with you, I still think singing pop songs is weird though.

At our church wedding I refused to have any hymns from school cos they still give me flashbacks of sitting on the hall floor for what felt like hours on end, no way was I having lord of the dance or Michael rowing his boat anywhere!

I think I meant peas but Peaches wonders if I know what peas are, so to be honest I'm slightly baffled. I feel like some cataclysmic awareness is about to hit me that what I all my life I thought was a pea is actually a sultana or something.

I’m not religious at all but I loved an assembly banger. Shine Jesus Shine and Autumn Days are absolute ANTHEMS.

I’m 20 and can remember singing pop songs in assembly. We sang songs like ‘We are the Champions’, ‘Help’ and ‘Believe’. I don’t think I ever actually sang any proper hymns until secondary school and we only learnt the national anthem in the lead up to the Queen’s Jubilee. I don’t think children need to learn the national anthem to learn patriotism and letting them start their day singing upbeat songs they recognise is probably more uplifting than having to sing a hymn not everyone is going to relate too.

I AM THE LORD OF THE DANCE SETTEE🪩

Maybe it’s me. I remember sitting on the floor in the hall as a kid, picking little mash-potato scabs off my shoes, thinking, ‘these hymns have no relevance to me at all’, and then a cursory ‘soz Jesus‘ in case he was offended and decided to not give me any Christmas presents punish me horribly. But I know if the school had made me belt out Black Eyed Peas or Girls Aloud or Ke$ha or whatever I listened to in 2009 I would be thinking ‘this is rubbish and I could do it at home without getting pins and needles and mash potato on me’.

I still say this looks banging.

You can read them all online. My father used to buy them everyday before. The last newspaper I bought was over 11 years ago and it was only because they had a coupon which gave you a free scarf.

Oh God, I just had a flashback to Year 4 assembly where some kids played recorder accompaniment to Shine Jesus Shine. What a glorious sound that was, not
