#EarwormOfTheDay is this sweet-as-pie ditty from Tommy Steele - 'A Handful of Songs': https://youtu.be/Y492Jc9IbxM

Very "Pied Piper figure strolls into town" along the lines of a number of classic introduction-song #showtunes, or something like Donovan's 'Hurdy-Gurdy Man.'

#TommySteele's diverse career not well remembered now, and dismissed as cheesy, I think, but it's worth listening to his lovely, fun voice from 2Is days to HALF A SIXPENCE and more.
