@Letty,
Good morning Letty. Maybe you will like this number:

Bananarama -- Venus

I saw these girls in concert once.

@Olivier5,
Ah, Mon Ami, I love that one and so long ago, I said that was my friend
Eva's song.

Two songs for now:

Last night I stayed up too late because I was in pain and drank too much coffee.

It reminded me of this sad song:

Now, it's a sunny Monday here:

as most of you know, I taught the evolution of music:

@Olivier5,
Well, Mon Ami, I'm back and the sun is shinning a little.

I guess most of us know that Gloomy Sunday was about
a young man who took his own life because his girl friend faked taking hers.

Saying good afternoon now with a song that I sang on TV:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSYq0sNSAkA

so good to have a friend like you and George as others as well.
Now, our poem for today:

Who Has Seen the Wind?
By Christina Rossetti
Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you:
But when the leaves hang trembling,
The wind is passing through.

Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I:
But when the trees bow down their heads,
The wind is passing by.


From Letty with love to all of my friends here. Smile

@Letty,
As always, a pleasure to listen to Billie Holliday.


These days we go to waste like wine
That turns to turpentine

Good morning, WA2K!


How about some more Iggy Pop?
Here he is with Joe Jackson in a tribute to the Duke.

@George,
Good morning to you, dear friend, and as you know I love Joe and Iggy
doing that great swing song.

Strange, George, I have been having trouble accessing this spot, so I had better
strike while the iron is hot. Smile

First, a serenade:

Now a golden oldie:

So sorry that I cannot comment on what you played yesterday.

@Letty,
Schubert's "Serenade" is so familiar, but any time you listen to it, you can
find something new about it.


From their "Last Time Around" album


Buffalo Springfield -- I Am A Child

Ann and Nancy Wilson did a fantastic job!


I'm not the biggest Prince fan, but I like this.

@George,
I agree, dear friend. Schubert is often complicated.

Love Buffalo doing I Am a child and it reminded me of
this golden oldie:

Prince a Case of you was great and thanks for your comment
on my other song.

Hurry back, my Christian friend. It's a sunny day here in Florida, but it reminded me of Hurricanes. <sniff>

Maybe this one will help us think of a wonderful hymn:

@Olivier5,
Ah, my French friend. I got up early this morning, because
I wanted to test my computer here.

I believe this may be part of the French National Anthem:

Alon enfan dela patria.

Now, another attempt:

Now, one for Neil:

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


He admitted that here name wasn't Caroline. Smile

Now, a funny parody on a King:

George, I love the duo by those two guys.
