What food these songs remind me of...

Often when I've little to do, I switch on my music system and sit there doing nothing. Once jusbefore lunchtime I was doing exactly this but I couldn't help thinking about food because as always I was hungry. So I tried to relate dishes to these chart-busters on my playlist.

YESTERDAY-   The Beatles

This Paul McCartney sung high-octave song brings to my mind some sort of high-calorie indulgence that you have today with glee, but tomorrow you are disgusted with yourself for not resisting the killer dish that has packed to your pounds. Yesterday my worries were so far away...

Blueberry Cheesecake, anyone?

STAIRWAY   TO   HEAVEN – LED ZEPPELIN

This ear-shattering music teamed with the soulful singing of Robert Plant makes for a dish that packs a punch, but has still a soft side to it.

Very hot Peri-Peri chicken takes the perfect spot. Also, chilli chicken.

YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL--  James Blunt

This has to be tutti-frutti. Seen anything more beautiful and colourful?

SHE LOVES YOU—The Beatles

Ice-cream. She loves me, you, everybody. We love her too, don’t we?

TIMES THEY’RE A-CHANGING—Bob Dylan

Things have really changed for the coffee. From being a syrup made by the beans of a plant found first in Arabia, it now comes in hundreds of varieties- Cappuccino, Espresso, Cafe Mocha, Macchiato, Cafe latte, Cafe Americano, Irish coffee- take your pick.  

SCIENTIST—Coldplay

This quirky little song is best described by a layered anniversary cake. There are so many layers in both of them that you have to devour them to understand the taste fully. Moreover, this cake is so technically tough to make, that it would take no less than a rocket scientist to prepare it, literally.

MOVE LIKE JAGGER—Maroon 5

Panna cota, baby! Ever seen it wriggle and move and shake seductively when you pick it up with a spoon?
