Sleep well, edgar. I understand Rick's song, I'm Tired, and "the fab four's" Tomorrow Never Knows was a big enigmatic.

euro, I really, really liked Oo song by Liz. Her paper boat reminded me of Oriental oragame.

Two songs for the morning here.

First, Love Me With All Your Heart.

Now, ABBA.

Last evenings' dinner was both fascinating and delicious. Loved sitting on the deck and looking at the ocean as we dined, and meeting total strangers with instant connection always amazes me.

edgar, Loved "the jester" doing Twist of Fate. I think there was a book by George Eliot/Mary Ann Evans about Silas Marner.

hgb, thanks to both you and edgar for restoring our signal.

Great jazz by Peter Appleyard. Don't know him so thanks for the info.

Here's one to match edgar's song, but first a definition.

An accomplished fact; an action which is completed before those affected by it are in a position to query or reverse it.

Now, the song.

Some songs don't need an English translation

I don't get the connection of Simple Twist of Fate to Silas Marner.

Fait Accompli in English Razz

@edgarblythe,
Ah, loved Jackie Wilson's cover of Van Morrison, edgar.

Great Fait Accompli in English. Thanks again for showing us the way.

A Simple Twist of Fate was a movie, Texas. Here is a comment concerning the movie.

I missed the first two or three minutes that would have included the credits and so did not realize that I would be watching George Eliot's moving novel. Although the movie was thoroughly modernized it took very little time for me to realize what I was watching. -- Much to my surprise and delight. I felt that George Eliot would have loved this movie. I give it a strong recommendation if you have read "Silas Marner". Those who have not, though, may find it contrived.



I think yawl missed this one by The Celtic Lady, (especially euroGeorge), so I'm going to play it again.

@Barry The Mod,
Welcome back, Brit. Loved the photo of Neil, and in the Right Stuff, I did hear this one played. (it used to be the army air corp, but was later changed to U.S. Air Force)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vl3I-fYYaoA&feature=related

Then, of course, there is the RAF. Razz

There is still, and probably always will be, the question of whether we really went to the moon.

Hi De Hi.

This song was written by an Scottish born Australian and performed by an Irish band. A good combo!

@Letty,
I used to dance my heart out to Wilson Pickett music, performed by a cover band at the old Ambassador Hotel in LA.

Sigh.

Wandel, Welcome back to our little studio. Thanks for that version of I Say a Little Prayer for You. Well, I hope Isaac doesn't hit anyone.

McTag, good to see you here as well. I love Ricky Nelson. Hello Mary Lou is a good one and he has done so many great ones. I love the instrumentation as well.

euro, You missed The Last Rose of Summer by that Celtic lady, but it doesn't matter as you can check it out later.

Wow! I love The Fureys Leaving Nancy, especially the patois. Just saw that Eric Bogle is Scottish. Bet our McTag will like that.

Speaking of great accents, here's David Bowie doing a dance with a baby. He was "the goblin king."

osso, welcome back to you as well, and I danced to practically all of those songs by Wilson. I did one with a young guy and out lasted him.

euro, you are so funny. The May West thing? I have the sniffles myself, Irish. Hope you sleep well, and we'll wait for osso to respond to your song.

edgar, Love Starwalker by Buffy and the visuals were fantastic. Reminds me of Dennis. Hope he is well, too.

Saying goodnight a bit early as I need to get myself in the bed.

You're right, Texas. Great mix of music on WA2K radio.

Thinking of Ursula and her Swede. Haven't heard from her recently, so first ABBA.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Do1zUt8Tqck&feature=related

I know we've done that song before on our radio, but it's worth another listen.

Now, our hymn for Sunday.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U21b6h8g7PM

Wonderful having Scotland, Ontario, London and Dublin with us today.Of course Wandel/Goethe via Germany.

From Letty with love to the world.
