26 March 2013: Commuters using London Bridge station were this week disrupted by London Mayor Boris Johnson busking with 2011 X Facotr singer Misha B. Yes, this actually happened.

Johnson showed his guitar skills (when he worked out which end was which) alongside the 'Do You Think Of Me' Top Ten star, to launch Gig 2013, an annual competition for buskers to win a place performing on the London Underground for a year.

Johnson performed a rendition of Bob Marley's 'Three Little Birds' at the tube station, and said he wanted the song played at his funeral.

"Is that an event you're looking forward to?" he asked press, when questions about funeral choices.

"Maybe 'Three Little Birds'.'Three Little Birds'! Yup!"
