Thanks for the real translation to your Luz Casal song, Francis. I like it much better.

edgar, thanks again for your comments. Love, love, love Roy Clark's Thank God and Greyhound She's Gone. It begins so sadly, then develops into a fantastic funny.

I know that our radio fans get tired of me playing this Italian hunk, but I can't help myself.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9NYZQ5bh0c&feature=related

Now, the translation.

Here, where the sea shines
and the wind howls,
on the old terrace
beside the gulf of Sorrento,
a man embraces a girl
after the tears,
then clears his throat
and continues the song:

I love you very much,
very, very much, you know;
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the veins, you know�

He saw the lights out on the sea,
thought of the nights there in America,
but they were only the fishermen�s lamps
and the white wash astern.
He felt the pain in the music
and stood up from the piano,
but when he saw the moon
emerging from a cloud,
death also seemed sweeter to him.
He looked the girl in the eyes,
those eyes as green as the sea.
Then suddenly a tear fell
and he believed he was drowning.

I love you very much,
very, very much, you know,
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the vein you know�

The power of opera,
where every drama is a hoax;
with a little make-up and with
mime
you can become someone else.
But two eyes that look at you,
so close and real,
make you forget the words,
confuse your thoughts,
so everything becomes small,
also the nights there in America.
You turn and see your life
through the white wash astern.
But, yes, it is life that ends
and he did not think much about it
on the contrary, he already felt happy
and continued his song:

I love you very much,
very, very much, you know,
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the veins, you know

I love you very much,
very, very much, you know,
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the veins, you know
Francis

@Francis,
Nor do I, Francis.

Another birthday boy. Don't know him, so here's a little info.

Jonathan "Jon" Lee (born 26 April 1982 in Devon, England) is an English singer and actor. Lee is best known as a former member of pop group S Club 7 (later S Club) who split in April 2003. He was the youngest member. S Club 7 also starred in a number of their own TV sitcoms, playing themselves.

Now, his song.

@edgarblythe,
edgar, thanks again for your comments. Love that one by Donovan. Let's hope you get some rain in your part of the world.

Love all the ethnicity that we have experienced here on our cyber radio.

Time to say goodnight, and I think that I shall do so with two songs.

First one by another Vaughn. I think most of us know the lyrics to Twilight Time, so the instrumental is fine the way it is.

and to welcome George ob1 back, a trailer from a great movie.

Goodnight world,

From Letty with lots of love

Morning Ms Letty,Ed and all WA2K peeps.Kate Bush has been playing around with her old tunes.Here's her new version of Deeper Understanding....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5UsjqXXcZ4
Kate Bush - Deeper Understanding.

As the people here grow colder
I turn to my computer
And spend my evenings with it
Like a friend.
I was loading a new programe
I had ordered from a magazine:

"Are you lonely, are you lost?
This voice console is a must."

I press Execute.

"Hello, I know that you’ve been feeling tired.
I bring you love and deeper understanding.
Hello, I know that you’re unhappy.
I bring you love and deeper understanding."

Well I’ve never known such pleasure.
Nothing else seemed to matter.
I neglected my bodily needs.
I did not eat, I did not sleep,
The intensity increasing,
‘Till my family found me and intervened.
But I was lonely, I was lost,oh so lost,
Without my little black box.

I pick up the phone and press Execute.
"Hello, I know that you’ve been feeling tired.
I bring you love and deeper understanding."
"Hello, I know that you’re unhappy.
I bring you love and deeper understanding."

I turn to my computer like a friend.

I need deeper understanding.

Give me deeper understanding.


Here's the original....

British punk singer Poly Styrene, who fronted the band X-Ray Spex wearing braces on her teeth and day-glo outfits, has died aged 53 after a battle with spine and breast cancer, her website said Tuesday.

The singer - whose real name was Marianne Elliot Said - was famed in the band's late 1970s heyday for punchy songs such as "Oh Bondage Up Yours!" and "Germ Free Adolescents".

She was one of the first female punk icons and remained a rare presence in a largely male-dominated business, having formed her band after seeing The Sex Pistols perform on her 18th birthday.

"We can confirm that the beautiful Poly Styrene, who has been a true fighter, won her battle on Monday evening to go to higher places," a statement on her website said.

Thanks Polly,a true Brit!....

Hurry back, edgar, and we all loved Lena doing Blowing in the Wind.

Hey, Brit. Loved Kate's Deeper Understanding. I never hear her that I don't think of our Raggedy. Miss her. Thanks for X Ray Spex's Poly Styrene. Don't know that one, but it says quite a bit. Thanks for the introduction.

Here is Kate doing Wuthering Heights. Not my favorite of hers, however.

When I was a kid, I recall trying to read that book, because it began with someone opening the shutters and seeing two ghosts walking across the moors of England.

Here's "the cat man"

Good morning, radioland. That's some interesting videos this morning. Kate Bush is sometimes good, sometimes bad, for me. Poly Styrene(did I get it right?) was new to me. Never heard of her before.
Cat Stevens I always like. That song was new to me.

@edgarblythe,
Thanks again for your comments on ABBA, edgar.

You sent me searching again.

José Doroteo Arango Arámbula (5 June 1878 – 20 July 1923), better known by his pseudonym Francisco Villa or its hypocorism Pancho Villa, was one of the most prominent Mexican Revolutionary generals.

As commander of the División del Norte (Division of the North), he was the veritable caudillo of the Northern Mexican state of Chihuahua which, given its size, mineral wealth, and proximity to the United States of America, provided him with extensive resources. Villa was also provisional Governor of Chihuahua in 1913 and 1914. Although he was prevented from being accepted into the "panteón" of national heroes until some 20 years after his death, today his memory is honored by Mexicans, U.S. citizens, and manyMexicans.


Viva Zapata! is a 1952 fictional-biographical film directed by Elia Kazan. The screenplay was written by John Steinbeck, using as a guide Edgcomb Pinchon's book, 'Zapata the Unconquerable', a fact that is not credited in the titles of the film. It is a fictionalized account of the life of Mexican Revolutionary Emiliano Zapata from his peasant upbringing, through his rise to power in the early 1900s, to his death. To give the film as authentic a feel as possible, Kazan and producer Darryl F. Zanuck studied the numerous photographs that were taken during the revolutionary years, the period between 1909 and 1919 when Zapata led the fight to restore land taken from the people during the dictatorship of Porfirio Diaz. Kazan was especially impressed with the Agustin Casasola collection of photographs and he attempted to duplicate their visual style in the film. Kazan also acknowledged the influence of Roberto people around the world. In addition, numerous streets and neighborhoods in Mexico are named in his honor

Loved Elvis' G.I. Blues.

Saying goodnight with two songs.

First, Emilio Zapata.

Now, one by that famous Canadian and his sidekick, Nelly.

Love ethnicity and always will.

To the world,
From Letty with love
