That special thrill when you reference someone famous and the famous person joins in
Here’s the always followable @haveigotnews on Venice being named the world’s most ‘liveable city’.
As the world's most liveable city is named as Vienna, organisers say there’s been a mistake and it's actually been pipped to number 1 by Joe Dolce.

And it’s not just Midge who can’t let it go.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not Joe F****G Dolce, that song is an absolute TRAVESTY. Wheras the song as number two is a complete masterpiece. We walked in the cold air, freezing breath on the window pane lying in waiting. #thismeansnothingtome #ohvienna

I’ve wanted to say that for years like a true fan it’s been my bug Bear for over 30 years that Vienna didn’t get to No 1 , saying that I was proud when it was named best No 1 of the best No 2s

Joe Dolce song is the most ridiculous tune I've ever heard . Absolute rubbish. Then you get a proper legend song, Vienna from professional Synth Meisters , Ultravox , that misses no1 spot from a 1 hit wonder dude Should have been number 1 , end of
