what to do

Post by Chris Kelly » Sun Jul 13, 2008 9:17 pm

Such a lovely song and I have only heard it for the first time on the DVD of the Australian show. Michele says it is one of her favourites and already it is one of mine too. Looking at the discography, it was only ever released as a B side (unless I'm missing something). I wonder why it was never an A side as I am sure it would have been a big hit.

Have you found The Definitive Track List yet Chris? It lists every song Matt ever recorded, and which recordings they appear on.
It is invaluable if you are looking for individual tracks.
From the Home page go to News, then scroll down and you'll find it.
If you've not seen it yet, I'm sure you'll find it very helpful in finding which 78s/ 45s /EPs /Albums /CDs all the various tracks appeared on. :D :D

Hi Chris---I only heard that song for the first time on that dvd too---and I agree it is a great sing--certainly deserved more recognition--I do not think that I have ever heard it on the radio.

Yes, up until the last couple of years or so, I think it was only featured on 1 cd, "This is Matt Monro", one of the first cd's I actually bought of Matt's. Now, of course it is on "Matt at the movies" and I think if I remember correctly, "The Ultimate".

I am desperate to watch it but cannot track it down.

If anyone has ever seen it I would love to read your thoughts. :)

Yes of course, it's on Matt Monro Sings too, which is probably too new to have been added to the Definitive Track List yet.
It's criminal that these CDs are being sold for only £2.99
:( :cry:

Hi All,

I have this lovely song on the "2 for 1" CD.
"These years and "The late, late show"

If any fans don't have this lovely compilation, it is well worth getting as you have about 75 minutes of Matt for about £6.00 from HMV. :D :) :wink:

"What to do" is gong around in my head as I write this, as it was last night and I am walking around the house doing jobs and whistling it. I have never whistled doing jobs in my life!
