Try A Little Tenderness



Stanley Kubrick began his great satire of the Cold War, "Dr, Strangelove..." with this tune.
I present it here in honor of the latest START agreement signed yesterday in Prague. I predict that our Republicans will try to restart the Cold War all over again and piss off the Russians just for one more chance to say "Up Yours!" to that black guy in their White House, but I'll just enjoy this little moment of sanity while it lasts.

Here's Ray Noble's version of this venerable old tune:
