Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for November 16, 2017

Sorry, mister, but I think Andy doesn’t know that song. Mind if you hum a few bars to help him out?

What is this supposed to be, something to just fill up the space today…?

Oye ‘tis truly sad that an artist of Andy’s calibre is never appreciated in their life time. More of the pity is that his forte is not singing but “the bending of the elbow” at various pubs and the conning of other fellows out of the money so he can continue that bending of his elbow.

Andy should sing “Behind Closed Doors”. Said doors should be those of a bank vault five stories below ground!

Do you know the refrain from singing?

can you sing “Far, far away?”

Even in my twenties, I know that that is an old, old gag! ha ha ha

How about the ‘Sounds of Silence’.

Sing tenor….ten or twelve miles away

Sing solo….so low I can’t hear you

How about giving Andy a drink of half and half? Half of yours and half of the old lady’s out of the chamber pot.

Sad. The comments today are more amusing than the strip. Good work from all who have posted thus far.

I’d suggest John Cage’s “Four minutes, thirty-three seconds” – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4%E2%80%B233%E2%80%B3

Or he could mean “Shut Up” by The Black Eyed Peas?

Don’t ask “Who are they?” Everybody knows who they are… Once you Google them.

..Sing " Shaddpa Your Face "! That was a #1 hit in the U.k...

…Did they have the joke of yelling " Free Bird!!!!!!!!! " at buskers in the U. K.?

Does “Go jump in the canal” count as a request?

Can you dance. It’s not prettier but at least it’s quiet.
