Year: 1999. Goal: make thunder strike thrice. Meaning: to get Sir Cliff a third Christmas UK #1. Tough luck: only half of the proposition was achieved, as "The Millennium Prayer" was dethroned after three weeks at the top of the summit precisely on Christmas week! The culprits: Westlife, with a double-sided single "I Have A Dream"/"Seasons In The Sun", both covers by, respectively, ABBA and Terry Jacks. Maybe if Sir Cliff had released it at the right time (i.e., 2000), things would have turned out as planned! Anyway, this song consists of a mash-up of sorts, as Sir Cliff sings the words to the Lord's Prayer to the tune of "Auld Lang Syne". And no, this hasn't charted again since. And for the last time, respect Sir Cliff!

Something rather undeniable about this one. Works quite well.
Three threads and none of them are "We Should Be Together?" Hmph.

Sir Richard needs to chill with the Botox.
