I spent the early part of my childhood (at least primary school) thinking that two people featured in songs that actually never existed.
1. Anne Jenoit... "If you're happy, Anne Jenoit (and you know it), clap your hands...
2. Ray Novarus... "send her victorious, happy and glorious, belongs to Ray Novarus (long to reign over us), god save the queen.
I slowly disabused myself of these misconceptions but I miss my two childhood friends
