Random Bond moment of awesomeness
I was at my favorite neighborhood coffee place(not a Starbucks,although I've been known to go there, too!), and someone was talking about chopping down a mango tree(occasionally I'll hear about people having mango trees around here-our climate is perfect for them!) and I started singing "Underneath the mango tree". Of course I had to explain it to everyone else there.

I start humming "Underneath the mango tree" every time I hear mention of Mango trees... now I don't have to feel weird about it anymore! 
What an awesome anecdote you have here. Well done!

Just found a version of this by Wild Billy Childish and the Blackhands on YouTube. Childish is best known for being in Thee Headcoats and various other garage punk bands, so this authentic-sounding version is not what I would expect from him.Ale wrote:I start humming "Underneath the mango tree" every time I hear mention of Mango trees... now I don't have to feel weird about it anymore!

Awesomeness in a bottle. Or in this case put to music.
Love 'Underneath the mango tree' great find Kris. Now the only difficulty will be to stop humming it.
