In homage of the Olympics here's
"The Stars of Track and Field"
by Belle & Sebastian
"... in your blue velour and silk
you liberated
a boy I never rated
now he's throwing discus
for Liverpool & Widnes ..."
"... you only did it
so that you could wear
terry underwear
and feel the city air
run past your body ..."
Stars of Track and Field are beautiful people!

Doh! Now that song's going to be in my head all morning. I'll admit to liking it even if B&S is categorized as "sad bastard music" by the Jack Black character in the High Fidelity movie.
their references to velour and terry towelling clothes just make me think of the 70s!

@Martin - yay! I love sad bastard music - just ask Wess! ;o)]
@star girl - the word on the street is that the 70s is very 'in' at the mo! ;o)] x *
