"Are You Being Served?" was known
for the many song-and-dance numbers that were frequently performed, particularly
in the season finale episodes. I've trolled the web for these and hope to
find more. The below sounds are all in .mid format. Many thanks
to Laurel for finding "Mammy," "I've Got Rhythm,"
"Teddy Bears' Picnic," "Beside the Seaside," and
"Chanson D'Amour", and thanks to Catey for finding "Who Can I
Turn To? (When Nobody Needs Me)"!
"These
Foolish Things" -- heard several times throughout the series.
"Mammy"
-- sung by Humphries, Lucas and Grainger in "The Father Christmas
Affair."
"Teddy
Bears' Picnic" -- heard during "Happy Returns." (Also
sung by John Inman on his album, "Are You Being Served, Sir?")
"Steppin'
Out With My Baby" -- from the musical, "Easter Parade"; sung
by the cast in the finale of "Happy Returns."
"Kids"
-- originally from the musical, "Bye, Bye, Birdie"; the cast sang this
in the finale of "The Punch and Judy Affair."
"Beside
the Seaside" -- Sung by the cast before practicing "We'll Keep a
Welcome in the Hillsides" in "Roots?"
"Waiting
For the Robert E. Lee" -- from "The Jazz
Singer"; performed by the cast in the finale of "Roots?"
"Who
Can I Turn To? (When Nobody Needs Me)" -- from the Broadway musical,
"The Roar of the Greasepaint, The Smell of the Crowd"; sung by Mr.
Humphries when he returns drunk from the pub in "Conduct Unbecoming."
"September
Song" -- a bit of this was sung by Mr. Humphries in "Lost and
Found."
"Night
and Day" -- originally by Cole Porter; played by Captain Peacock in
"The Nightclub."
"I've
Got Rhythm" -- sung by the cast into Mr. Rumbold's phone in "The
Pop Star."
"Chanson
D'Amour" -- sung by Mr. Spooner and the rest of the cast in "The
Pop Star."
I'm still trying to find an .mid file of "We'll Keep a
Welcome in the Hillsides."
