  1. First thing I thought of for the #AStoryTold theme of this week's #JukeboxFridayNight was Hole In The Ground by national treasure Bernard Cribbins. It's such a fun little tune that ultimately disguises a murder or, perhaps, justifiable homicide occurring at the end. This lyrics video has some questionable spelling.

  2. A Thing Well Made, The Mutton Birds. Perhaps Aotearoa's greatest storyteller-in-a-song is Don McGlashan. Here he eerily echoes the terrible tragedy at Aramoana.

    It's Wednesday
    So I do the mail orders
    There's nothing much
    Some oilskins and a 303
    For a hunter over in Westland
    And oh yeah
    One of those AK-47s
    For some collector down the line
