Back around 2000 when visiting my mum and dad, Terry Wogan was turning his radio listeners on to the late Eva Cassidy. I went out and bought the Songbird CD for my mum... along with around 199,999 others apparently as memories of her tragically short career were reignited.

.
My mum has since passed away but I still have the CD.

Now for C&W. This was one of my mum's favorites. Although she liked Skeeter Davis, I reckon this Davis Sisters' version with the soaring harmonies works better.

Followed by the even more catchy remix dance version ..that i really did start bopping too whilst listening .. and agreat from of religious exercise / cardio .

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48laJC8wYl4

DISCLAIMER .. Before the wokies start pontificating about how racist i am .. its a bit of fun .. same as is dished out to all most recently our Scottish friends without so much of a whinge .. so hope its makes you smile ..thats the aim.

Totally agree.
Now will someone please post a video of the guys who dance around the Maypole with bells round their ankles just to even it all up. I am not allowed, so need some to do. Then next it will be tall young guys in very short shorts playing hand ball from the land of the jumping rats. Lighten up, its a joke as Ricki G said.

I take plenty of mickey taking when out n about and on UM .. regardless its the football , my alcohol consumption , rotundenss , Yorkshire pudding and/or ladyboy fetish ... my thick skin prevails.

IMO its a real shame how citizens are controlled nowadays all in the name of political correctness and not deemed being offensive .. gone are great TV programs like LITTLE BRITAIN (banned for racist characters) , BOTTOM (violence) etc ..a generation of wokey wafer thin skinned flowery pussies are being spawned and speaking of mind will be virtually extinct except for some parts of rural Yorkshire and the Highlands of Jockland.


back to the music ..heres a track that was banned as is was deemed to sexual .. and degraded womem both in lyrics and vidoe content .. see more flesh in Soi samphan in the hot season .

MANA from heaven (RIP Keith Emerson & Leonard Bernstein)

I saw Nice, with the awesome keyboard mastery of Keith Emerson, perform America at the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall back in 1969.

.
Ashamed to be English since 23rd June 2016 when England voted for racism & economic suicide.

Disgusted that the UK is “governed” by a squalid bunch of economically illiterate, self-serving, sleazy and corrupt neo-fascists.
