WA2K Radio is now on the air, Part 3

Good Friday morning here, dear friend. The reason that my format
has changed is because I can no longer see the visuals. <sniff>

Hurry back my dear friend from Ireland. Loved that Nina.

Three songs for the morning here:

First, another Nina:

I introduced my students to Barry because he was a history mystery.

Now, for my friend McTag. We both had scottish genes

Well, y'all, I can see them today.

Celtic Woman did a fine rendition of "You Raise Me Up".


Here is one from a former professional surfer from Hawaii.


Jack Johnson – “Cookie Jar”

Back in a bit, dear friend. Have to take another catless nap as I stayed up too
late. Ah, I love cookies.

"99 Luftballons" always lifts my spirits.


A good cover of the Tracy Chapman song


Ryan Montbleau & Tall Heights – “Fast Car”

Well dear friend, I'm back. Going to say good afternoon a bit early
as I'm not feeling too well.

I missed my friend from Ireland's song, and your fast car.

Four songs now:

First, Cookie Jars:

Oos, I missed Scottland the Brave:

Forgive me if I played it twice.

Now Perry Como who will live on forever through his music:

From Lettty with love to all of my friends.

I liked Matt Munro singing "Nina Never Knew". That's a new one for me.


Now another distinctive voice


Roy Orbison – “Dream Baby”

Nina Simone singing "You Put a Spell On You" was fantastic.


Something with a Celtic lilt to it from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia


Natalie MacMaster – “Farewell To Peter”

"Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" is a great song by Willie Nelson.


As I think about wrapping up for the weekend.


The Commodores – “Easy”

Perry Como and Cyd Charisse were great together in "We'll have a Blue Room".


Here's Dino to start Saturday.


Dean Martin – “That’s Amore”

Loved all of your Friday songs, dear friend, and Dean's song reminded me of
the pun you once made:
When you step on an eel and it bites at your heel that amore.

Thinking of The University of Virginia today because of Edgar Allan Poe. Many of us walked around trying to find his memorial site and found nothing.

Here's a brief bio of that fantastic man:


A pane of glass taken from the window of Room 13, West Range, is on display in the University’s Rotunda. According to legend, Poe etched the following stanza into this pane sometime before his unfortunate departure:

Now, The Raven:

Remembering when I had eye surgery, my Beth played this for me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dA6Ysu0pbKw

as you know, my Christian friend, it doesn't have to be Sunday
to enjoy hymns. Odd, George, I was concerned about my daughter
and what a delight to get a phone call from her just now. Incidentally,
thanks for your comment on Perry and Cyd.

Here's another:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBH8mhHSNWo

Odd, I have a ceramic bust of Jesus on the table by my sofa,
and I took a cat nap and when I awakened, his eyes were looking
up at me. Wow!

another history mystery. We'll never know what happened to
Edgar Allan Poe. <sniff>

ah, dear friend, I'm sorry that I chased you away.

Missed the saturday dance, heared they crowed the floor. Don't get around much any more.

Thinking of Walt Whitman saying I think I could turn and live with animals.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcXpKiY2MXE

Hope you will play some more, George.

ah, dear friend, hope you're still my friend.

Saying good after noon now.

Don't know this group, but they are good:

From Letty with love to all of my friends wherever you are.

Vincent Price is just the man to recite "The Raven".


Now let's listen to Willie


Willie Nelson – “Maria, Shut Up And Kiss Me”

"Lead Kindly Light" is a beautiful hymn.


Bring on the horns!


Tower Of Power – “You’re Still A Young Man”

I hadn't heard that hymn before. Very nice.


The Godfather of Soul -- ow!


James Brown – “Get Up Offa That Thing”

Goede morgen dames en heren.
I woke up this morning thinking i need a break, a w/e in Amsterdam sounds goed.

Wim Sonneveld - Aan de Amstedamse grachten.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhdQ59LHorQ

Maybe we should be made learn Dutch as a penance for our sins.
That G is a killer.

George Ezra - Budapest.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcifwiVkX3k

Tot ziens.

Good Sunday morning from here in our Florida radio station.

Just so happy to know that you are alright.

Good to see Ireland back with us as well.

Willie doing Shut up and Kiss me was funny as was Get up off that thing.

Love that Budapest song and James Brown is always good.

Sorry if I missed any contributions.

Our hymns for today:

First, How great thou Art:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0ynr-qAhUY

Now, Abide with me:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deJDkU6qiGE

Now, another lovely one:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax_NMWLEb6U

Uh Oh, did I chase you off again? I thought you would like those hymns.

Here's a great poem about animals:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWAh-ogoJWY

well, my Irish friend, you and I have a lot in common.

I won't play another by Matt Monroe, because it makes
me too sad. <sniff>

Saying good afternoon now with another sad but lovely poem:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecfVIt641n0

Strange, I though George and I were Christians.

from Letty with love and hope for a better tomorrow
