You must have never heard the cover by Tanya Tucker and Glenn Campbell. It's almost as good as the Bobby Darin version.

I'm really not a fan of Bobby Darin, except for Mack the Knife. I know people in the Matt Monro forum love Artificial Flowers, but I detest that song.

Here's a song that cannot be covered by anyone:

Angels -- Robbie Williams

Hi Paul---I have to agree with you--much as I love Bobby Darin, i do not like the song "Artificial Flowers"

I agree with you on Robbie too.

Did you read my post about Robbie is house hunting locally--one of the places is Matfield, which is the next village that I havementioned before--village green, with cricket in the suimmer, duck pond--several local pubs, and a quaint tearoom--just a few miles down the road from where I live.

Yes, I just read that recently. I was planning to add a post to say how cool it is for you and Robbie to be neighbours, and to ask you to arrange a visit to his estate :D , and also to provide my review of his fabulous latest album, but I never seem to have time to write a long message.

I have recently determined that only two singers' voices make me feel all warm inside: Matt Monro and Robbie Williams. I'll repeat this whenever I find time to write more.

Hi Paul--you could bump into Robbie at our local Waitrose--about a mile from me--next to the station :lol: :lol:
