Spent 4 hours travelling by car last night (long story!) so we listened to lots of music. These 2 songs were the ones still in my head this morning.

Since watching a little of Glastonbury ... weren't The Who fantastic! The song that has been in my head was this Burt Bacharach one Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head - funny how a song just sticks in the mind


But to reply to Zand four hours travel is a long time ... do you wish to share your story later ?

Drink plenty of tea to help you recover from a long journey, that's what I do ... I'm just off to put the kettle on

All the best Jan

@Jan1 I'll tell the story on the footie thread!

And another:-

Someone just mentioned The Undertones to me, so these sprang to mind:-

Sad to hear that Val Doonican died last Wednesday. I can remember when we all sat as a family and watched his show, it was a Saturday Night viewing must.

So going back a few years here is Val Doonican and Walk Tall


Michael Valentine "Val" Doonican (3 February 1927 – 1 July 2015) was an Irish singer of traditional pop, easy listening and novelty songs who was noted for his warm and relaxed style.

RIP Val

All the best Jan

Just watching Arena on BBC 4, Amy Winehouse "the day she came to Dingle", this was one of her songs that was played.

My thanks to Graham who first introduced me to this, see here - http://thelowcarbdiabetic.blogspot.co.uk/2015/07/rod-stewart-love-is.html

... it's my favourite at the moment.  

We went to see these guys last night, and this was one of the songs. Brilliant. And I lost a pound in weight too. Who knew head banging used so many calories huh?

I'm having a Rod Stewart renaissance (is there such a thing?) I blame it on Graham when he introduced me to Love Is by Rod Stewart here

Hope everyone has a great Saturday evening

I agree this is brilliant Wish I could move like that too.

Just put this up on the blog a band that's new to me

Cilla’s career began in the 1960s, after rising to prominence as a singer, with a string of hit singles to her name, including ‘Alfie’, ‘Step Inside Love’ and ‘Anyone Who Had A Heart’, which came to be known as one of her signature songs.

Over the years, she later made the break from the world of music to TV, fronting hit shows like ‘Surprise, Surprise’ and ‘Blind Date’, among others.

Cilla was married to her manager, Bobby Willis, for over 30 years, until he passed away in 1999, after suffering from lung cancer.

Together, she and Bobby had three sons, Robert, Ben and Jack.

... May she RIP
