Hi Liz :-)

I'm not surprised about Kate Fletcher- I thought it had a Scandinavian feel.

I do remember that Kylie song! It was when she was going through a period of experimenting with styles. I thought at the time it was a bit creepy :-D :-D :-D

Mike has been visiting his daughter in London. It was his Granddaughter's birthday. He is back now.

You Were Made For Me ... Freddie and the Dreamers

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=So9gS4LGwF8

I was about 6/7 when this song was made.
When they sang "You were made for me, don't pretend that you don't know", I used to sing "...You were made for me, Darling with a chewed up nose"! :-D :-D :-D

I really thought those were the words!! And I used to do the dance :-D :-D

Well she certainly has a beautiful voice. I googled her and found this

'As well as singing, Kate plays guitar, kantele and double reed instruments solo and with her partner Corwen in a duo.

She plays historical music including Viking and Medieval music, and is one of the few practioners of Kulning (Scandinavian cattle calling) in the UK.'

A very talented lady.


Where The Wild Roses Grow....Nick Cave and Kylie Minogue

Not one of Kylie's better known offerings!


My avatar is for the upcoming Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Where is Mike by the way?

Good Evening Gang :-) :-)

Hope you are all happy and well today!

Liz- You know some great bands :-)
I'd didn't know The Band! It's good to hear old favourites done in slightly different arrangements or styles:-)
Loved The Rose of Cimarron.

Great Avatar BTW. Us Celts must stick together against MIKE **** shhh- don't tell him!

Wet here again, typical on my days off!

Good Evening Gang :-) :-) <3

Pleasant day here today. Went to our local Country Park where they had a Classic / Vintage Car Exhibition, and we had a lovely walk afterwards :-) :-)

Great Songs again, the two of you! The Scots have obviously got good taste :-) :-) :-)

Thanks for those clips Jem. Considering he wrote some pretty big songs, Hugh Nicholson is not well known as a songwriter. Shame. I did enjoy watching them.


KEEP ON LOVING YOU....REO Speedwagon


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJzNZ1c5C9c

Hiya Emms :-D <3

Another great one though on the same theme! I wonder how many sons about jealousy there are? :-D

Here's Emma's great songs

Killing Me Softly
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1eOsMc2Fgg

WHY DON'T WE HAVE A LITTLE DIVERSION FROM THE ALPHABET FOR A WHILE.. A theme within a theme! (only if you want to) You can still carry on with the alphabet if you'd rather.

Songs with Jealousy in the title or about Jealousy. We could put JEALOUSY THEME on the top of the post

JEALOUSY .... WILL YOUNG

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MHtrM-jf9o

Killing Me Softly With His Song.........Roberta Flack

You beat me to it Jem <3


I was thinking...

Jealous Guy...........Roxy Music :-D

Good Evening to the Singing Thread :-) :-)

Hi Liz :-)
I really enjoyed both those songs on that clip. They are not Bee Gees songs that you hear quite as often as their later ones. Very sad though!

I found these I thought you might like to watch-
