WA2K Radio is now on the air, Part 3

Today is this guy's birthday, and I always laughed at the TV series and the music:

Here is the theme song:

Two great songs for the afternoon here. First Nature:

Now, Friendship: Calling all.

Now, the golden days of Hollywood:

Hurry back, music lovers.

Saying good afternoon with two songs:

First, Handel, with a Sunday hymn:

Now, "the boss" dancing in the dark so that the Baptists won't see him.

From Letty with love to the world

Good Monday morning to all from our Florida radio station.

I hope we get more contributors today, as the reason for the original and the III adjustment, is to find people who share the love of music and other ideas.

I awakened this morning thinking of this poem:


The Ocean
By Nathaniel Hawthorne
The Ocean has its silent caves,
Deep, quiet, and alone;
Though there be fury on the waves,
Beneath them there is none.
The awful spirits of the deep
Hold their communion there;
And there are those for whom we weep,
The young, the bright, the fair.

Calmly the wearied seamen rest
Beneath their own blue sea.
The ocean solitudes are blest,
For there is purity.
The earth has guilt, the earth has care,
Unquiet are its graves;
But peaceful sleep is ever there,
Beneath the dark blue waves.

and, y'all, two versions of the same song:

First, dear Hank. ;(

Your poem brought to mind the song Sailing by Christopher Cross.

Gurda, my German friend, love Sailing by Christopher and since he is from Texas, perhaps we can coax our edgar back.

Two golden oldies; Inspiration is wonderful.

First, The Platters:

Now, seeing a dock in your song reminded me of Otis:

From ship to shore now:

First, the instrumental:

Now, Andy:

UhOh! This has been water day on WA2K Radio, so that is why my music here didn't work.

The Love Boat sank as did "the bear's" boat, but The Yabber Liner is still working.

Better say good afternoon before we sink in the sand:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUjE9H8QlA4

and, y'all, it's Tony's birthday and love this one by him:

Oops, Another Wave:

Diane Tell - Si j'étais un homme

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Qdgt8djNe9M

Hurry back, Mon Ami. Love Diane singing with her man. Glad Lake Geneva didn't rush over you and hope McTag wasn't sitting on those Bonny banks for Loch Lomond to wash him down.

Odd, y'all, the entire internet shut down last evening here and Billy Joel awakened me in the middle of the night.

Two songs for the morning here. First time:

Now, inspired by our Frenchman, a memory of a French president. Here is some info:

François Maurice Adrien Marie Mitterrand (French: [fʁɑ̃swa mɔʁis mitɛˈʁɑ̃] 26 October 1916 – 8 January 1996) was a French statesman, who served as the President of France from 1981 until 1995. He is the longest-serving President of France and, as leader of the Socialist Party, the first figure from the left elected President under the Fifth Republic.

Now, a song concerning him:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xE0KY7HFUdI

Once again, Waving to everyone.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nS_aR8XX_U

Since this is Lonnie Anderson's birthday, I thought of the themes to two
shows:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qlLtvX4xOM

Wondering if anyone here remembers them.

Two dedication songs now.

First, one for our creator.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKtLN9yV-30

Now, for my rabbit friend.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEmL1I0ToTI

I guess if the world won't come to us; we'll go to the world.

I just received a fantastic photo of Ursula and her Swede that was taken at the German festival, and it reminded me of this funny one.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3Xag0wPcHA

Now, the lyrics:

Roll out the barrel, we'll have a barrel of fun
Roll out the barrel, we've got the blues on the run
Zing boom tararrel, ring out a song of good cheer
Now's the time to roll the barrel, for the gang's all here

Then they hear a rumble on the floor-or-or-or
It's the big surprise they're waiting for
And all the couples they form a ring
For miles around you'll hear them sing

Roll it out, roll it out, roll out the barrel

Sing a song of good cheer
Cause the whole gang is here

Our poem for today by Alexander Pope:


happy he, who free from care
The rage of courts, and noise of towns;
Contented breaths his native air,
In his own grounds.

Whose herds with milk, whose fields with bread,
Whose flocks supply him with attire,
Whose trees in summer yield him shade,
In winter fire.

I remember him best for Fools Rush In.

METRIC - Too Bad, So Sad

ah, my dear friend from Brooklyn. You just gave me another memory. When I was small, and lost one of my puppies, my father said:

Too bad, so sad, your dad.

Then, my Mom looked through our trellis and sang this one.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97u_IzXIDwU

I'm the only one in my family with blue/green eyes.

Loved Metric doing that song

Saying good afternoon now and remembering happy times.

Bert and Josie smiling at me as well as my late husband and me on the beach.

I know that edgar/Mark is STILL my friend.

From Letty with love and a smile to the world

Ah, my computer has been misbehaving again. It's alright now. Very sunny day in our Florida radio station.

Thinking of my mom because she loved these guys.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dB30IL-YWjg

Now, some Creole.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4OV8__VA-c

To me, they both mean friends and companions.

Once again, calling. (no, not Indian Love Call.

Here's a surprise, Dean doing New Orleans:

Now, looking at the photo of me on the wooden picnic table at the campground
on the ocean. It's the memory of Leo the campground cat who was really ill, and we had him euthanized.

In the days of yore, there wasn't such a thing, so the ill animals had to be shot:

Many people have done this, but as edgar knows, I like the original:
