Apologies Peter and thank you.

This is an oldie but I'm sure that it will ring some bells with some of you.

' Picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been '

PS - My cousin, Malcolm, is a campanologist.

Is there anyone here bold enough (or not too proud) to name the tune from my clue? Peter, as I'm usually my own worst enemy, then i'll take the bait ](*,) :fsbgrin: and suggest that the song title might be ... More Today Than Yesterday? PS I like anagrams, as they are usually a useful way of beginn...

Sometime this afternoon, I will give this one a go, although it will be slow.

A ( hopefully ) Very Happy and Especially, Healthy New Year to you all.

Peter, you believe correctly.

Your turn.

She don't feed me peanut butter She knows that I can't take" Thank you Peter, although I have never been that keen on peanut butter, on Christmas Eve, Richard tried out a slow cooker recipe, Peanut Butter Chicken; it was delicious. Let's see how quickly this one goes: She's a good girl Who's c...

Peter_S wrote: ↑Mon Dec 25, 2023 10:22 pm Well, conscious or not, you both know the song. Now, someone name it, since you already have the title.

Peter, I have only just looked at this and it's Bread and Butter, although I cannot remember the artist/artists.

I happened to be doing some archaeological work in his garden (strangely for a time we lived in the same village in Hampshire). He seemed a jolly soul and allowed use of his outside convenience. Against the wall were framed copies of covers of the radio times in which he featured. Upon the cistern ...

I think someone should start a "Claims to Fame" thread - I can see some activity on that f it happened... Plummy, is that going to be you then? :fsbgrin: There may be mention of where I saw Alan Titchmarshes 'Gotcha' if that were to.occur Or perhaps, Ian, it's going to be you because I ca...

Ooops! Ian beat us by 1 minute!! Listening to Symphony No 3 - Symphony of Sorrowful Songs by Henry Gorecki gave me the idea of putting up Mad World by Tears For Fears. Lots of cover versions of course, mine being by Torul. Well done Ian =D> :) and having pipped Peter and his daughter to the post, i...

Thank you.

Let's see who can come up with the correct answer to this one.

I have this song on my rowing iPod - Summer of '69 - (Bryan Adams ).

I recently put up a line from a Phil Collins’ song on Name That Tune and wrote that I had a ' claim to fame ' with the artist. Articflipper correctly identified the song as, In The Air Tonight and asked me if I was related to Phil Collins, to which i replied, “ Not That I know of.”, Peter ( Seidman ...

My computer refuses to spell your name correctly and keeps putting Take, so Good Luck Take :) 👍 and Richard and I hope that the experience will encourage you to enter future competitions. We are already doing something on that Saturday, otherwise we would have loved to be there in order to cheer you...

Yes jill are you and Phill related somehow? Not that I know of. Jill, tell us about you and Phil Collins! Peter, at the moment I need to reply to some outstanding emails but give me a couple of days and then I'll post an explanation on the Ladies Banter Thread. Spoiler alert though - Mr Collins and...

No Steve, it's not Foreigner.

articflipper wrote: ↑Mon Nov 20, 2023 10:24 am In the Air Tonight. Am i right jill?

Yes, articflipper, you are right. The song of course, sung by Phil Collins.

Over to you.

Keep streaking Jill!! Jimmy Webb wrote All I Know, and he said that he and Art Garfunkel are still friends. Thank you Peter; the piano playing gave me goose bumps. My mum was an accomplished pianist but unfortunately, I never inherited her talents. As for the streaking, at this time of the year, it...

Thanks Jill. We managed to stay on the surface of the ocean. Since the songwriter is on board, I want to choose one of his songs. A fair number have already been used, so hopefully someone knows this one. "I bruise you, you bruise me We both bruise too easily" Peter, at the moment, I woul...

Norman Greenbaum (who I do not think is Jewish) was the one hit wonder who wrote Spirit In The Sky. Peter, I thought that this one would go very quickly and yes, of course, it's Spirit in The Sky. :) =D> As I have been an atheist for many years now, Mr Greenbaum's religious leanings are his busines...

Thank you Plummy and yes, it does.

Back to 1970 and a song, that in my younger days, I danced to many times: When I die and they lay me to rest.

Someone told me long ago

I love this song - Have you ever seen the rain.

Thank you Peter for the beautiful photographs.

My favourite is of ( what I think must be ) the paddy/rice fields, all those different shades of green.

Very pleased that you had a great holiday too and also had much needed opportunities to put your feet up and enjoy a beer or two ... or three.

Carole, thank you for your latest health update and I hope that you will receive some clearer news soon about your heart surgery. I have a lot on at the moment, so will save my Tale of Two Kitties for another time. Take great care and going forward, I send you all good wishes towards a new beginning...

Congratulations, Philip and Collette.

I love your ' can do ' attitude. Two shining stars.

Paul, like Plummy, I also looked up the song but unlike Plummy, I didn't recognise it at all, which doesn't mean it's not well known, just that there are huge gaps in my musical knowledge. For Peter, there's usually a collective sharp intake of breath when Mr Glitter gets mentioned over here in the ...

Thanks for the clue Jill. I think Peter has the right era, but that it’s actually the Walker Brothers. And the song is The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore. Paul, you are correct on both counts. :D =D> You have also saved me in the nick of time, from being crossed off Peter's Christmas card list becau...
