from the film "CIRCUS OF HORRORS"-- a realy lovely song, written by Tony Hatch---sung by Garry Mills---"LOOK FOR A STAR"

I have not heard it for ages--it never seems to appear on any compilation, so I hope I have the names right. I once had it as a 45" , but it seems to have vanished.

I am surprised that there have been so few "James Bond" themes listed so far---this is my favourite--

"FOR YOUR EYES ONLY" SHEENA EASTON.

The Carousel Waltz from 'Carousel'. :D
Lots of lovely tunes in the film, so it's difficult to choose. :D :D

No songs from musicals allowed--there are just so many, that I will start another thread later.

This is just for theme tunes from drama, romance, comedy etc.

I do not recall this one being listed yet

"AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER" from film of same name---and I think the film soundtrack was sung by Vic Damone.

I have not seen this one yet--much to my surprise

"A SUMMER PLACE" from film of same name--not sure if it was Percy Faith's version in the film---I do not remember much else of the film.

I love that movie Mariana. The kids of today have no concept of life before birth control pills and "free love". Good grief a good night kiss was a big deal on the first date. When Sandra Dee is asking Troy Donahue if he is a "good" boy it is so indicative of the time
