Stick to Da, Da, Da

Worrying times as we enter the Christmas period, as the government discover that many of us aren't literate enough to read the words on the karaoke screen.

Thank God at last someone has found a way of persuading kids it's worth reading - "if you don't do your book learning, you'll never be able to sing Angels without mumbling through the difficult bits..."

Amongst other songs the government worry are too challenging are I Will Survive and Mustang Sally - which the report describes as being by "The Commitments". Proving that literacy and knowledge are two separate things entirely.
