GOLDEN OLDIE ONE-LINERS

Some of my favourites are :-
" I once had a girl or should I say she once had me. "

" How is Worcestershire, is it still the same between us, do you still use television to send you fast asleeep, does the systern still leak, oh and bye the way, how's your broken heart. " ( It was one line, really ..... anyway that is more difficult to googgle )

" Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry, will you tell us when to live will you tell us when to die? "

The catch : To post a reply and comment and an extra ditty you must first give the names of the singers that were the originals to sing those lines above. And then this system carries on. Discipline me hearties.

Anticant must not use songs from the 1890s - end of rules

Yes indeed LB _ Good morning.
But three it must be to continue.
BTW : You have now helped our ole Anti to get one correct answer. Just wait he will not do the same for us. I should have said no songs from the 1910s methinks.
Stirring with a smile i am me old anti.

I see that none of them are "Jack the Ripper" by Screaming Lord Sutch. As for the two non-Beatles ones, I really couldn't say.

Beatles, Clifford T. Ward and Cat Stevens win me a whisky?.
***
I still have Clifford T Ward on black vinyl - time for me to put these all onto MP3
Cracking under-rated stuff.
'Scullery' is a wee gem of a song but my favourite is this one :

TO AN AIR HOSTESS

The engines roared
The aeroplane soared
And I waited with baited breath for the worst
But everything connected
There was nothing unexpected
Until she appeared looking calm and collected.

I fell in love with an air-hostess
Together we flew the skies with 'Air France'
I wanted to give her a copy of my record
But I did not have the self-confidence.

I fell from such a great height
And wonder if I will ever land.

INSTRUMENTAL

This part of CTW's fanclub gives you a free song that he has never put on disk.
You will need Quicktime enabled, I think.

Duncan Browne was also a quality act in those years.
'Journey' influenced my life in so many ways.
JeesusJohnny - better get a deck and put all those classics onto MP3

After a day in bed with me wicked witch of the north I return to award the lurkin Merkin a double dose of the big W's.
Only a single for you other lot today I'm afraid. You must do better.

A jukebox for every living room I say.
