I have long considered Brazil a marvelous song.
And Linda Ronstadt with Bobby is a great one.

This is for our Aussie friends

@edgarblythe,
My Boomerang won't come back is hilarious, Mr. Creator, and I think there was someone on our forum named Boomer. Thanks again for your comments, dear friend.

More Synchronicity, because I awakened this morning thinking of James Taylor, so here are two songs by him. First, his signature piece

Now, Paper Moon:

Hey, James, We're calling your name, now where are all of my friends? Smile

As edgar knows, I like the original so here is Glenn.

Well, I played Bonaparte's Retreat, because today is Napoleon III birthday.

Glenn will live on through his music.

Glenn is the kind of singer I like all of his records.

@edgarblythe,
Wow! I had no idea that the man with the velvet voice did that one, edgar, and thanks for you comment on Glenn.

Here's one that I know best by The Four Freshmen, but what a surprise to find out that John did it. (poor John)

Incidentally, Latin George is alright. He said that he had been working really hard and was Pooped. Maybe later.

Those versions of Polka Dots and Moonbeams are great. My favorite version is by Tommy Dorsey and Frank Sinatra.

Great Johnny Mercer, letty. That was a good treatment of Annabel Lee.

Here is one of Harry Belafonte's very early recordings

Good morning good morning
We've danced the whole night through
Good morning, good morning to you.

Hurry back, Mr.Creator, and thanks again for your comments on my song. Loved Harry doing Dissonance Island.

You hurry back as well, my Roman friend and I enjoyed Soledad Bravo to this American lady. Smile

Three songs to begin the day in our radio station.

First, The Bronte Sisters were born today, and I think most of us know
That Emily tucked all of her creations away and it was here sister that found

them and had them published.

Two trailers now for the great creativity of dear Emily:

First Jayne then Heights. Smile

Now, a fantastic trio, y'all.

Hope our music plays here; having a bit of a problem. Anyone surprised? Smile

Ah, me. That was supposed to be Do Ra Me by Andy, Bobby and Eddie. Maybe it will work later.

Good evening from the eternal city. Here's one stolen from Izzy on another thread:

@Olivier5,
This song was written by Serge Gainsbourg for Isabelle Adjani, French actress turned singer for a season. Nothing great but it's based on a series of puns with the names of the united states: Ohio, Nevada, etc. Maybe you'll like it.

@Olivier5,
Ah, Mon Ami, you are back in France again. Thanks for that information, and
Isabelle singing Ohio was fantastic.

Trying again, dear friends:

Now, dear Eddie. He died because they replaced his broken hip with metal:

@tsarstepan,
Welcome back, my long time friend tsar. I loved Verdi's Otella, and Shakespeare is a part of it as well.

Somehow it reminded me of Emily's poem:


A narrow fellow in the grass
Occasionally rides —
You may have met Him — did you not
His notice sudden is —

The Grass divides as with a comb —
A spotted shaft is seen —
And then it closes at your feet
And opens further on —

He likes a Boggy Acre,
A Floor too cool for Corn —
Yet when a child, and Barefoot —
I more than once at Noon,
Have passed, I thought, a whiplash
Unbraiding in the Sun
When, stooping to secure it
It wrinkled, and was gone —

Several of Nature’s People
I know, and they know me —
I feed them for a transpost
Of cordiality —


But never met this Fellow,
Attended or alone,
Without a tighter breathing,
And Zero at the Bone.

Now, another good song

Now, a birthday lady:
