This is a question Old stuff I still know

Our Ginger Fuhrer says that he could still code up a simple game idea in Amstrad Basic, while I'm your man if you ever need to rebuild the suspension on an Austin Allegro (1750 Equipe version). This stuff doesn't leave your mind - tell us about obsolete talents you still have.

I know the lyrics to loads of cartoons
Was an avid watcher of anything animated in the late 70's right through to the mid 90's. If the theme tune had lyrics to it then I would by default learn them off by heart.

Only this morning I found myself singing the classic theme that was Hanna Barbera's 'Godzilla'.

"Up from the depths
30 stories high
Breathing fire
His head in the sky
Godzilla (do do-do)
Godzilla (do do-do)
Godzilla (do do-do)
and Godzookie.... (slapstick section)
Godzilla (ahhhhhhhhhhhh)"

Thanks - I will now be singing it all day in my head, you shit.

Spiderman, Spiderman,
Does what-ever a spider can.
Spins a web, any size,
catches theives just like flies,
look out here comes the Spiderman.

I can't remember the rest of it but a cassette tape exists of my brother (must only be about 3 at the time) singing the entire thing in my nan's house in the early 80's.

*grins*
"Ulysses, Ulysses. Soaring through all the galaxies
In search of home, flying into the night
Ulysee-ee-ee-ee-es no-one else can do the things you do..."

Though even aged 8 I was a bit of a cartoon snob and much preferred the old Warner Brothers cartoons that ITV had to the contemporary Hanna-Barbera and Filmation ones on the BBC (Tom & Jerry excepted) because they were very obviously animated on the cheap (the same sequence repeated multiple times with different voiceovers, recycled backgrounds for different scenes and even episodes, etc.).
