if you have a favourite song and want to share it that would be great.
Although topic is favourite SONGS, noticeable that responses have overwhelmingly been regarding members' favourite performer, group or genre.
Looking at my selection of 12 favourite
songs,( after all how many 'favourites, can you have?), compared to those of other members, seems I am the 'oddball here.
But all of my selections possess some special personal association from my life, so forgive me. Although hardly necessary , ( well, to older members :-" ), I have included my preferred performer. No special order of preference, except No.1!
1. Because (God made thee mine). My Dad ,with Mario Lanza, as my second choice. My Dad's special song for my Mum, and which he sang to her on every special occasion, even well into his eighties.
2. Don't laugh at me cause I'm a fool. Norman Wisdom.
3. It's a wonderful world. Louis Armstrong.
4.Ave Maria. Mario Lanza in a duet with a young choirboy. In one of the former's movies, the title of which I forget.
5. Annie's Song. John Denver.
6.As long as he needs me. Whitney Houston.
7.It's Magic. Doris Day.
8.Green, green grass of home. Tom Jones
9.The Prayer. Andrea Bocelli & Dion Celine.
10.Nessum Dorma. Pavarotti.
11.Didn't we almost have it all. Whitney Houston.
12.Wonderful tonight. Me!! Following in my father's example, my special song, for my special lady. Trouble is, have to leave the vocals to Clapton these days, as my voice has gone awol
