euro, Loved that Lonesome Boat song, especially the Irish whistle. Hurry back soon.

Vonny, I am amazed that you do French music as well.

Sorry if I cannot comment on each contribution.

Just a memory for our friends here. We no longer do the rating system, because it doesn't match the format of our radio.

Saying good afternoon with Perry as it is dark and rainy here.

Arena was married to her manager Ralph Carr. They married in 1995 and divorced in 1999. She now lives with her partner, French artist Vincent Mancini, and their son.

Good morning from our Florida radio station.
Great mix of music last evening from France England and Ireland. Sorry that I cannot acknowledge each one.

edgar, Leonard and "the fab four were great.

Latin George, Blue Heron was also excellent. I have some white egrets prancing around in my front yard.

Two songs from here in our radio station.

First, Since it is Veterans Day here, a tribute.

La Guerre de 14-18 - Georges Brassens



Depuis que l'homme écrit l'Histoire,
Depuis qu'il bataille à cœur joie
Entre mille et une guerres notoires,
Si j'étais tenu de faire un choix,
A l'encontre du vieil Homère,
Je déclarerais tout de suite :
"Moi, mon colon, celle que j'préfère,
C'est la guerre de quatorze-dix-huit !"

Est-ce à dire que je méprise
Les nobles guerres de jadis ?
Que je me soucie comme d'une cerise
De celle de soixante-dix ?
Au contraire, je la révère
Et lui donne un satisfecit,
Mais, mon colon, celle que je préfère,
C’est la guerre de quatorze-dix-huit !

Je sais que les guerriers de Sparte
Plantaient pas leurs épées dans l’eau,
Que les grognards de Bonaparte
Tiraient pas leur poudre aux moineaux...
Leurs faits d'armes sont légendaires.
Au garde-à-vous, je les félicite,
Mais, mon colon, celle que je préfère,
C’est la guerre de quatorze-dix-huit !

Bien sûr, celle de l’an quarante [WW2]
Ne m'a pas tout à fait déçu,
Elle fut longue et massacrante
Et je ne crache pas dessus,
Mais à mon sens, elle ne vaut guère,
Guère plus qu’un premier accessit,
Moi, mon colon, celle que j’préfère,
C’est la guerre de quatorze-dix-huit !

Mon but n’est pas de chercher noise
Aux guérillas, non, fichtre non,
Guerres saintes, guerres sournoises
Qui n’osent pas dire leur nom,
Chacune a quelque chose pour plaire,
Chacune a son petit mérite,
Mais, mon colon, celle que j’préfère,
C’est la guerre de quatorze-dix-huit !

Du fond de son sac à malices,
Mars va sans doute, à l’occasion,
En sortir une - un vrai délice -
Qui nous fera grosse impression...
En attendant, je persévère
A dire que ma guerre favorite
Celle, mon colon, que je voudrais faire,
C’est la guerre de quatorze-dix-huit !
Letty

@Letty,
Great find! That must be the only song by Brassens which was ever translated into English. And well translated too !

@Olivier5,
Well, Monsieur, as I have said before, you inspire us here. I may have a gene of French, too. Just found out that one of my ancestors had Beauford as a name.

Now, a birthday man's tribute:
