Hello Mariana, Lena and Harry, Mariana44 and everyone ( I think I have everyone covered). One of my very favourite MM ballads, the absolutely lovely "Till Then My Love".

Hello Mariana44 and all. Yes I agree, I cannot ever remember hearing "Till Then My Love" being played on the radio. And the same goes for "Maria" by Matt. I have heard just about everybody elses version of that song on the radio, but I have never heard Matts version on the radio, which I think is the BEST ever.
Another -T- song now, another fabulous ballad "This Is All I Ask".

My tears will fall now that your gone :(

Hi Marian and everyone.
I believe there is only one video of a concert with Jack Jones. This was in the early seventies I believe, with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra.
He's done a lot of tv shows both here and in the U.S. of course, and a couple of feature films.

My "T" this time is "This time"... :D

Marian.

Hi everyone. Going back to "This Is The Life" what a really classy song it is. A song Matt recorded for Capitol records in America in the 1960's.
I will stick with the letter -T- with "This Way Mary".

Hi all. I'll have another go, as no one has had a go for over two days now.
I'll stick with the letter - T- with Matts version of the glorious ballad "The Party's Over".

My tears will fall now that your gone :(

Hi all---well I cannot think of another "T", nor can I think of a "U", so I am going straight to "W" with another of my favourites

"With These Hands"

Hi everyone. My - W - song is a 1960's song. Originally I think from a Norman Wisdom show .............. "Walking Happy"

Hello Marian and everyone. Another -W - song, more famous when sung by Nat King Cole is "When I Fall In Love".

Hi all--I was trying to think opf another "W" ,when I realised that I jumped straight from "U" to "W"--I guess there are no "V"s , as I have not been corrected.

So back to "W"

"What to do"


One of Michele's favourites, as she mentiond on the concert dvd. Rightfully so, a lovely song, and a beautiful rendition.--I guess I love it too!!

Hello Mariana44. There is one MM song beginning with the letter V that I know of. One of Matts recording's in Spanish, but I will be greedy and keep it for when the game goes round again :wink: :wink: I bet everyone know's it now though.

One of my Top 10 Matt songs begins with the letter -W. The superb ballad
"Who Can I Turn To". :D :D

My tears will fall now that your gone :(
