And a band that was only together for one song, on one night
The Dirty Mac
Ok, technically that's 60's (1968), but I don't care.

50's and 60's man.............

We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
And the waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, "There is no reason
And the truth is plain to see. "
But I wandered through my playing cards
And they would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open wide
They might have just as well been closed

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, "I'm here on a shore leave,"
Though we were miles at sea.
I pointed out this detail
And forced her to agree,
Saying, "You must be the mermaid
Who took King Neptune for a ride. "
And she smiled at me so sweetly
That my anger straightway died.

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale

If music be the food of love
Then laughter is it's queen
And likewise if behind is in front
Then dirt in truth is clean
My mouth by then like cardboard
Seemed to slip straight through my head
So we crash-dived straightway quickly
And attacked the ocean bed

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale

Such a powerful force. Sadly, she passed away at the age of 78 on September 29th this year.

So many top 10 hits.






CREEPY!!!!!!!



One of my favourites............


Great tribute - history of Australia's greatest entertainer via interview.



Live Concert in 2013, when she was 72 years young. Intonation is still well centred, even at that age. Wow! Truly invincible.

Chose this take, because Tom Jones intro............

The original above, then Bette Midler's version............


And, as a bonus........... lol, the Aguilera Sisters. Make her cherry pop and panties drop.

Music brings out emotions in just about everybody. This song does that. Beautifully written and performed. Anyone who has ever loved someone would get this song.

Another Canadian artist................

End of 80's but still 80's

Along with music comes dance. Dance moves. Ah, I remember my younger days on the night club dance floor. If I tried some of that shit now, I would end up in Burnaby General. My forte was the swing. I could take any girl and turn her into a dancing queen....... can I lead? Yes, I can lead......

Mashmakhan............ Canadian group.

A bit of history behind the song...................

While on the subject of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel.............

Solo version.


both of them............

and then............. this cover version. Same lyrics, but kind of angry. Disturbing, gulolol.



Music is a powerful thing. Whether you listen to it, play it, or create it. It is one of man's most amazing gift from the gods.
