ARCHETYPAL ‘lets the music do the talking’ (ie dull patter, tinted pilot spectacles etc) jock, presented weekday early mornings for seven years. Main reason for employment seems to have been to cause confusion with Adrian Juste.

I cant recall too much of Adrians ability as a DJ ( although he must have been talented just to have made it onto Radio 1!! ) I do recall a rather good jingle of his.It was based on Joe Fagins theme to Auf Wiedershen,Pet and the first few lines were ” Now its Adrian One, on Radio John…that doesn’t sound right ( that doesn’t sound right )”. A bit vague, i’m afraid but thats all I can remember of it.

As someone who uses maths professionally, the jingle with its permutations appealed to me a lot.
Here are the words — the link below doesn’t work.
Now it’s Adrian One
Here on Radio John
That doesn’t sound right
(That’s living all right)
Is it John Radio?
Or One Adrian? No
That still isn’t right
(That’s living all right)
It’s so hard to be clear
When your brain’s not in gear
But whoever he is
He’s all right
I know. It’s Adrian John
And it’s Radio One
Now that sounds all right!

Here is the Adrian John jingle, tracked down by my girlfriend. I really hope it works because this is unquestionably the greatest radio jingle ever.

Thanks very much for putting the jingle on here, David. It is a great jingle and it was good to hear it again.
