WA2K Radio is now on the air

Cleo Laine is perfect, Barry. Funny that she referred to cockney sparrer.

Love this one by her. What a range she had.

Cleo does mozart.

Good afternoon again. I have been rather busy, what with having a nap and then rearranging storage so I could put an entertainment system cabinet in there without taking it apart. Now I have to rearrange the living room.

Here's a birthday boy I bumped into on my last trip to Dublin when Prince let me down- Oscar Wilde....

"Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much."

John Lee Hooker - Hoogie Boogie.

hurry back, edgar. Good one by the fab four.

Barry, we did a tribute to Oscar earlier, but that photo of his statue in Dublin is exquisite. Don't know that one by John Lee Hooker, but I recall him doing I've Got My Eyes on you. (who is Prince)

Here is Dorian's portrait at the end.



Now, the trailer with Hurd Hatfield.

My older sister introduced me to all of the oldies.

Good evening! I can't remember if I already posted this one but its my favorite by Adam Lambert, For your entertainment!

I posted pics and told my sorry story on Izzie's Yabber thread at the time but here's a recount.Back in 2008,Prince advertised a one night only performance in Dublin,Ireland.As Dublin is an hour's flight away,I booked my ticket for the concert,along with flight tickets and hotel reservations.
Three weeks before the concert,Prince pulled out.Flights and hotel costs were non-refunderble soooooooooo,I thought I might as well get to know Dublin with my camera,which I did,hence the pic of Oscar....

Prince - Purple Rain.

I caught up with him at the 02 in Greenwich a while later.Fantastic night
I don't do religion but,if this Jehova's witness knocked on your door would you tell him to go away??????????

Morgan, Welcome back. Great one by Adam Lambert. Remember, we PLAY music here, buddy.

In the days of Oscar Wilde, they put him in prison for being gay. I did smile at Rockhead saying he knew why he was straight, because he wasn't good looking enough to be gay.

Hey, my cockney friend. Prince's Purple Rain would not play here, but I know him and his music. How great to meet celebrities. Some are fun and some are not so much fun.

How about one by Sir Elton.

Hurry back, Barry. Really enjoyed Dave Byrne's Lazy.

Saying goodnight a little early as I'm feeling lazy myself.

First Purple Rain. (had no idea they were of the Jehovahs Witness group) They knock on my door all the time.

Good morning folks. See you all later in the day.

Good morning, WA2K listeners and contributors.

Hey, Water Man, welcome to WA2K radio.

Morgan, Thank you for complimenting WA2K.

Barry, Thanks for the correction on The Prince and Joni Mitchel's song.

hbg, You missed out salute to Litz, but he is worth more than one, methinks. Loved the Lang Lang version and Bugs Bunny was funny.

Once again, here are the lyrics to the Litz's Dream of Love song:

In all my dreams i only dream of you, love
i guess it was meant to be
and all those dreams, you make them all come true, love
i know you're the one for me

and through my darkest night
you send your brightest light
and make me feel so strong
so strong in your nude embrace
so weak near your shining face

in all my dreams you take me to the stars, love
and that's where i long to stay

Ah, Ontario, I adore Victor Borge. He also played The William Tell Overture upside down and backwards and when inflation was robbing us, he inflated the language by saying: Any two four eleveneth . He is indeed our Great Dane as is our sculpture, hebba.

Mandolins in the Moonlight was lovely as well.

Victor died after returning from a concert in Copenhagen, Denmark, and that reminded me of Danny Kaye doing Hans Christian Anderson.

Now, another birthday man.

He directed so many fine movies, yawl.

Hurry back, edgar.

Hope I didn't miss anyone, but as you know, my way of thanking everyone is to thumb them up. To whoever thumbed up my contributions, thank you as well.

good morning msletty , ed and all listeners !
indeed , i did miss your tribute to Franz Liszt .
