What's In Your CD Player/iPod/MP3/Computer/Hi Fi, Right Now?

Back to Jane Olivor-I thought I had "Stay the Night"-but it ois not where it should be. in the "O"s.
My cds are called "Best side of goodbye" "in concert" "so fine! "first night "and "chasing rainbows"
-i have had them all ages--it is quite possible , I bought some of them in US-I cannot remember.

I have alse seen her singing live at a Johnny Mathis concert.

I love her version of "Some Enchanted Evening" also. It just played on my Ipod!

Have you heard Art Garfunkel's cd "Some enchanted evening"---another of my favourite singers--I do have a long long list of favourites. Although that is not my favourite of his cds.

I only like him with Simon and Garfunkel. I have some of his solo stuff, but not that one. There's an American singer named "John Tronnes" and he's pretty good and I also like "John Barrowman" and not because he's Capt Jack from Doctor Who and Torchwood. LOL.

From Matt Monro With Love

I was surprised to hear him sing an into on When I Fall In Love as I've never heard it on that song before, Ella Fitzgerald did that a lot with her songs.

[mariana44]

The intro to that song is great--Karen Capenter includes it in her version too--but I had heard the song many times, before I realised it has a verse. I just love it when a singer includes the verse--Johnny Mathis does this a lot--and in fact, the first time I heard the verse to "Fly me to the Moon" was at a JM concert.

We had a game sat one time, where we had to guess the song from the words of the verse--not always easy with no music--it was one of my favourite games.

Been listening to a nice mixture tonight. Matt's Manilla concert, Patti Page, then Perry Como's 60's singles cd.

[ROBERT M.]

I have had it for a while (years) without ever playing it...........but I'm playing Matts CD Heart of the Man tonight ............the sound quality is not right up there, and the tracks are mainly from radio broadcasts. But it contains "new" Matt song's to me

[Eman]

My Ipod was on shuffle mode in the office and on the drive home and it came up with:
You're the One For Me Fatty - Morrissey
Rock The Casbah - The Clash
I Say A Little Prayer - Dionne Warriwick
The Folks Who Live on The Hill - Val Doonican
My Best Girl - Matt Monro
L'ature Jour - Herman's Hermits
Let's Pretend - Bay City Rollers
All I Do Is Think Of You - The Letterman
Something Stupid - Frank and Nancy Sinatra
Catch A Falling Star - Perry Como
Being The Beguine - Johnny Mathis
Spanish Harlem - Aretha Franklin
New World Comin' - Mama Cass Elliott
What's Your Name - Andy and David Williams
Softly As I Leave You - Matt Monro
So it was quite ecclectic.

Thanks Mariana, I love Morrissey!!!!

[mariana44]

Sorry--not my cup of tea !

[Marian]

Nor mine, but my daughter collected his records.

[Eman]

I totally understand. When I put on a Morrissey record at home my Dad groans and says not that old gloomy puss and his montone voice again!!! However if I put on Matt or something he likes it's pretty cool as we really start to converse about the music!!

[mariana44]

TIME AFTER TIME—SHIRLEY BASSEY
SOMEDAY SOON----EDDIE FISHER
MAN WHO CAN’T BE MOVED—THE SCRIPT
ONCE UPON A TIME –JACK JONES

Listening to Gene Pitney singing "Only Love Can Break a Heart" now. Interestingly, Margaret Whiting recorded this one as well.
