Crying by Roy Orbison
Pretty Woman By Roy Orbison
Baby Love by Supremes


ES

Evening ES

Have copied and pasted them onto the master list!

Will let you all know when we've got them all!

Ruth

That was a nightmare - felt so confident it would work. Took three attempts. Never mind.

Corrie's songs:


The first time ever I saw your face - Roberta Flack

Happy memories
More than a feeling - Boston

For my beautiful baby sister, Sandy
Little Baby Nothing - Manic Street Preachers

Thanks, Ruth - this is a idea!

- love your choices! Nice to have met Mrs. and Daughter Electric, too. Do they realise there is a fan club on here?

Corrie

Hope Not

ES

Why on not? It's good to be appreciated. Who's fixing showers at the weekend? You loverley person, you. My dad does the same for me. Part of the reason you collective Dad's are loved so much! I cannot begin to imagine my world without my dad. He is amazing! He's the most intelligent, profound and weird person I know. I love him so much, but he knows that (in between the ROWS). The best rows I have ever had have been with Big Bry. Can he argue???? Grumpy old bugger but I 'im so much it hurts.

He was on 'Tomorrow's World' three times with his inventions.

Hallo

My three choices are:

Annie's Song...John Denver

Bridge over troubled water...Simon and Garfunkel

Chris Isaak....Wicked Game

Couldn't think of anything yesterday, but had a bad night and these songs came to me. Come to think of it, they're all a bit sad, I suppose. But then, what do you expect at 3.15 a.m.
Ask me again when I've had a few

Hi Ruth

3 oldies that are favourites of mine are:-

Everyday I Write The Book - Elvis Costello

Helen.

Hi Geordie

I guess I ought to post mine:

Hey Jude - The Beatles (Macca was just awesome singing this last year, live at Earls Court)

Follow You, Follow Me - Genesis (our song!)

Bat out of Hell - Meat Loaf - (reminds me of a brilliant summer)

Ruth

Hi-ya



what I ment to say was


Whoa! My love, my darling,
I hunger for your touch,
Alone. Lonely time.
And time goes by, so slowly,
And time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love.
I need your love.
God speed your love to me.

Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea,
To the open arms of the sea.
Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me,
I'll be coming home, wait for me.

Whoa! My love, my darling,
I hunger, hunger!, for your love,
For love. Lonely time.
And time goes by, so slowly,
And time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love.
I need your love.
God speed your love to me.

called erm "something to do with Ghost"

ES

Oh dear ES

You're as sad as me

Don't know what it's called either...can sing it with you though.

La la la la laa la

Unchained Melody by the Righteous Brothers, maybe?

Always makes me cry buckets and looks lovely written out.

Bunch of softies!

Our list is brilliant!

Mustard Seed
Hi-ya

O and this I like too.

Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've bought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

When we finally kiss goodnight
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

ES

It's 'Unchained Melody'

Jimmy Young had a huge hit with it a few decades ago
