There are still two days of voting left, so things could change, but it looks very much like SuggestFest will win for the Artists/Covers festival. A couple of people have said that they're anxious to post their suggests even though the poll hasn't ended yet, and a few people have already posted suggestions in other topics. So I decided to make this topic to keep all of the suggestions together in one place. I've marked it "unofficial" for now. If SuggestFest wins the vote, I'll change it to "official". If you've already posted suggestions in other topics, please repeat them here. If you'd rather wait till the vote is official, that's fine too.

Update - 2013-07-30 - This topic is getting quite long, so I thought it would be good to summarize the suggestions here.

       Gimme the chords and lyrics and I'm all over it like Stuart Hall at a junior disco....

                                                       henwrench

chords and lyrics pm'ed to you, but i couldn't identify any of them so hope it makes sense to you.

      The mrs has got a few days off work, it's the daughters 7th (7th!!!) birthday and I've got an original that needs finishing on me MBR, but after that I'm an OFFICIAL SuggestFest whore...

        Don't ya just love this place?  :) ;) :D ;D

                                                            henwrench

Wouldn`t have guessed "you" Mr. Rottenhead to suggest "me" to do that, but it`s time to commit a crime!  :D

I want to help with that one - Maybe bass and some "Breakin' the law" bg vox!! That's about all I'm good for these days...

My suggestion sounds like Sweet, might as well do "Love is like oxygen" ;D

Actually, the song does rock, Jim you amaze me sometimes...

Quote from: Geir on June 29, 2013, 02:23:15 AMI just wanted to get the first suggestion in. And I suggest that OldRottenHead does a cover of .........


















Oh ..... You really thought I'd give you a head start James ??? ...












Oh well  ...  It rhymes with

Eye rant, let tit scout on thy dead

learnt it and recorded it, is in your mail geir but i'll wait til the 1st to post it for the fest. this puppy has his leash on. was your idea so you can suffer first.

got it down to 4 chords, and now i could hammer in nails with my fingertips.

my ears are bleeding from having it on repeat ;D

I suggest that launched and Bluesberry cover "Sweet City Woman" by The Stampeders.

[grooveshark]4803493[/grooveshark]

I suggest that Blooby and Lurker do.... Johnny Winter - Cheap Tequila - Oh pretty pleeeease!  :D

Quote from: 64Guitars on June 29, 2013, 06:14:11 PMI suggest that henwrench covers "They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!" by NapoleonXIV.

Perrrrrrfectly done, 64guitars... perfectly done.

unfortunately I couldn't even come close to play those keys like doug ingle of iron butterfly. nor do I know anyone who can for that song. I am lucky I can do what little keys I do with one hand, he uses both.

Quote from: oldrottenhead on June 29, 2013, 02:52:47 AMNick odh does: this town aint big enough for the both of us by sparks

I've though about it before, to be honest.  Would have to be a lower register though.  I've got all these music making aps on my iPhone now, need a project.  I get no time to do home recording now.

Question is, how you gonna get through all those return challenges though?  I'm going to challenge you to the third song that shuffles onto my ipod;
1. War - Frankie Goes to Hollywood
2. Ilse of Her - Klaxons
3. Ben E. King - Supernatural Thing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dh3FmghHXKM

I'd like to hear Geir & Jarle do 'Green Shirt' by Elvis Costello :-)

Thanks for the suggestion.  Along those lines, it would fun to do the full electric version of "Still Alive and Well."

Blooby

Ha! That was the first one that popped in my head but i thought you guys like doing acoustic, but hey if you want to do Still Alive and well, that be really amazing. I`d like to hear your electric chops on that.
 One of my fave albums ever!

I suggest that phantasm777 covers "Wicked Truth" or "Double Cross" from Bloodrock's 1970 debut album.

Gnasty?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2z0cKtSlHOU

All over it Burtog, at least once I finish this one for ORH!
 You sir,were actually the 1st suggestion I thought of, so my suggestion for Burtog...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41lqQ4brvK4
You might want to get the cd version it's much better.

One for Haylie


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ozOi5hoHD4

#Invalid YouTube Link#

Or Maybe the violin!

I suggest that Gritter and Gnasty cover the closing theme from the Wayne & Shuster show.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OKNJLcnGh4

Haha!! Thats hilarious!

I have not seen that in a lot of years and of course i remember every word. Awesome.
Hmmm.. I will see what i can do. Who you want to be Gritter? Wayne or Shuster ?

[grooveshark]4803493[/grooveshark]

Now I got that damn song rattling around in my head - There's an easy listening station I tune to sometimes and they play that one frequently. What is it with easy listening, I just caught a buddy of mine tuning in to the same station the other day. And you would never even suspect...

Reminds me of the Tommy Boy scene:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LG0_-uiNBjo

This is a more serious suggestion, and one I know my brother will back me on as well.

I'd like ORH to cover Francis Dunnery's "Give Up and Let It Go"

Here's a video for inspiration:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuY8V65bCH8

And here's the studio version

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K71aZ5epXmU


I appreciate all the suggestions I've got and will try to do as many as I can cope with at the moment. (I've already started research on a couple of them :D)

I would like to suggest that Bruno does a cover of this wonderful song:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xikm2YS_7xM

oh i might need some help with that one geir. cant find tabs for it anywhere.

Haha - let me have a think - this one would be quite a challenge!

ORH - I'll take your challenge!

I would like Sandy (Gritter) and/ or Kari (Redler) to suggest a song for me.

Surprise me! Only condition: to have the chords on the internet. Like Henwrench, I don't have any musical talent whatsoever.

Sandie Shaw essentially with the Smiths

Excellent! I'm obviously down for the count today and tomorrow celebrating our independence day, but I'll be back in action after that. We can do a different one if you want, I just had that one rattling around in my head the past couple days.

Rob (facemask93) do you have time for some suzzane vega? I was thinking on the queen and the soldier, but any from her debut album would be awesome.
Swansong - what about some indie song? But you have to sing!  I was thinking on pavement. His singing is quite relaxed and you would fit well.

I suggest KennyMac do "Don't You Forget About Me" by Simple Minds.

i beat you to it hook..............oh wait it was another sm song  lol.

Don't you forget about me ,mmmmmmm. That's do able Hook ;D,,,,,,jim what about new gold dream ? ;D

i think i put you down for love song kenny

Aye,,,,,,ok bloody nae give n take wi you,,,,,,,Im on it. ;D

Ill do both,,,,,,,,Im going to regret this  ;D

I haven't got a lot of time at the moment but I really appreciate being included and should get to some suggestions in August, hopefully :)

Geir - Valley Girl (I'll find the time to do the speaking bit, if Ted's in)

ORH - Walking After Midnight - a great suggestion for me - I've already done it (one of my early SC ones)
https://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?topic=15409.msg192185#msg192185 (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=15409.msg192185#msg192185)

Bruno - Hummingbird - if you want to play it honey, I'll sing it!

Kenny Mac - Dream a Little Dream of Me - I love the idea of doing this one and it'll definitely be top of my list :)

My suggestion is for Holdempok - absolutely anything (vox and acoustic) ;D ::) ;D

Quote from: kenny mac on July 05, 2013, 03:33:25 PMI would like old rottenhead to do pump it up by elvis Costello  ;D

    That is inspired. But if I may be so bold as to suggest that Jemimas Kite do this, thus taking some pressure of wee Jimmy Higgins. We don't need another case of 'exploded Scot's heed'.

                                                   henwrench

And now for the ace in my pack...

            AndyR - Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick -

                          Don't um and arr - just get on with it....

May I suggest 64Guitars covers Expo 2000 by The Chocolate Watchband?

Hopefully not too much of a surprise - might I suggest Burtog covers I Heard Ramona Sing by Frank Black?

I'd be over the moon if Bluesberry would cover Be Not So Fearful by Bill Fay (also covered by Jeff Tweedy):

Yes, he was awesome!

Edit:

Jeff and Harry!!

Pleased as punch is what I'd be if Geir would cover Victoria by The Kinks:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2GHlcwlT1Y

I'd like to suggest launched covers I'm Waiting For The Man by the Velvet Underground:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOmZimH00oo

Well, that's all my suggestions for tonight...more to come soon.  :)

I know I don't hang out here very often, but I would like to suggest Hook to cover Brownsville Station's Martian Boogie ukelele style.

Quote from: cuthbert on July 06, 2013, 07:46:26 PMMay I suggest 64Guitars covers Expo 2000 by The Chocolate Watchband?

I'm not familiar with the song or the band. But I had a listen and it sounds pretty cool, so I'd love to give it a try. However, it depends on how much time I can find to work on it, as I've already received three other suggestions. I've never managed to do four songs in a festival before. I'm usually doing good if I get one song done. But there's a first time for everything. If I can find time, I'd be happy to do this one. Thanks for the suggestion.

I want to suggest Hook does a uke version of Say A Little Prayer. If only to hear the one "Each morning I wake up, Nefore I put on my make-up"

Some great songs, SwanSong. But the idea of SuggestFest is to suggest that a particular member covers a particular song. So, which members do you want to cover these songs?

Steelguitar does: andy by les rita mitsouko

Hum. Very difficult to play sing and do Les Rita Mitsuko on one hand, and the song "Andy" on the other hand!!!. I will try it, but I don't know if there will be a good  "listenable" thing

Okay, here comes my next round of suggestions... :)

It'd be way too cool if Gritter would cover Child of the Moon by The Rolling Stones:

I would like to suggest that Gnasty do Suffragette City by Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0UsRWmylgA

I bet he'd rock it up!

I'd do a cartwheel and probably injure my old self if Redler would cover Judy Is A Punk by The Ramones:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLq6KaWaQYQ

May I suggest that phantasm777 cover Brontosaurus by The Move?

I know dasilvasings does great Serge Gainsbourg covers, so I'd like to suggest he take a crack at Manon by Serge:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZFcHF-wjBA

a fabulous album

I would really like to hear a Demonised version of Michael Schenker Groups "Into the arena". I used to play this live, but I think my fingers are too rusty now :D

I suggest that Greeny covers the closing theme from the TV show "Family Tree".


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuoTVEx4XKU

I used to listen to my iPod thinking "could I cover this?" for every song.  Now I'm listening thinking "who would do a good cover of this".

So when this next one came on, I thought of Henwrench.

So I would like Henwrench to cover Rags to Rags by Eels.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVB5KZaQguk

I'd really like Mr 64 to cover the theme tune to New Tricks :D

Hadn't heard this one before, but I like it a lot! I have a few suggested songs in the pipeline already, but I'm up for it henwrench is...

Kenny Mac, please do:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPAzwUhXnzs

You'd make a Norwegian Viking very happy

that's a great suggestion Geir, i love that song, hell I totally love A- ha & this tune has Kenny Mac written all over it!
Rock On!

A Norwegian Viking would make me very happy if he and his Norwegian Viking brother would cover this one by Golden Earring (if they have time, that is):

[old_scroll][/old_scroll]


This is actually the second time I've suggested this one for Geir. The first time was in 2010 for PirateFest, but he didn't have time to do it then. So maybe he can do it for SuggestFest. But no pressure, Geir. I know you probably have lots of other requests and might not have time to do this one. So I'll understand if you don't get around to it.

Kenny Mac did a great cover of Roy Orbison's "Crying" (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=17856.0) for DeadRockstarFest, so I'd like him to cover "Running Scared" if he has time (after he does "Hunting High and Low" for Geir).

I'd like to hear Hook cover "When I'm Cleaning Windows".




George usually played a banjo ukulele, but here he is playing it on a conventional uke.



Here's a page with the chords:

http://www.ukulelesongs.com/uke/ukulele_chords/music/tabs/George_Formby/When_Im_Cleaning_Windows.php (http://www.ukulelesongs.com/uke/ukulele_chords/music/tabs/George_Formby/When_Im_Cleaning_Windows.php)

I don't know if they're right, but it's a start.

Ron Sexsmith is awesome, and this is an awesome (and short!) song! I've been away for a week, then I'm away for anothre 2 weeks shortly, so I'll see if I can squeeze some time in. Great suggestion though :-)

Love it 64, I'm trying to do them in order so I think I have 2 in front of this one but I'm excited about that one too!

Yes. I remember the first time you suggested it, and I'm sorry I haven't found time and inspiration to do it yet, but with a little help from my bro it might just be possible to get it done this time (and I will push it up in the queue ;))

Would it be possible to have some kind of extension on this suggestfest, still got 2-3 tracks which have been requested by others but due to holidays and wot not most of August is going to be a right off for recording time.

Maybe others are in the same boat????

As with any festival, you can send me a PM before the festival ends (August 31) to let me know which song you're currently working on for the festival and don't expect to complete on time. You can then take as much time as you need to complete it (within reason) and I will add it to the jukebox whenever you post it.

The idea is simple. I don't want to continue adding new songs to past festivals after they've ended. But I recognize that people may start working on a song during the festival and the festival might end before they get a chance to finish it. So, to allow people to finish songs they started during the festival, I'll add the finished song to the previous festival as long as I was advised of it during the festival. Once the festival ends, if you decide to start working on another song, it won't be accepted for the festival because it wasn't started during the festival. Of course, you can always post any song you like. It's only a question of whether it will be added to the festival jukebox or not. If I know that you started working on it during the festival because you sent me a PM during the festival, I'll add it. But if you didn't send me a PM, then I have no way of knowing when you started the song. I'm sure most people would be honest about it but there will always be a few who will lie just to get another song in the festival. That's why I need the proof of a PM sent to me during the festival.

And please don't send me a list of 6 songs that you're "working on". ::)  I'll accept one song without question. Any more than that and you'll have to convince me that you really have started working on them. Most people only work on one song at a time. So if you've started more than one song, you'll have to provide reasons why you didn't just finish one before starting the next. And, just to keep people honest, I might ask you to send me mp3s of the unfinished songs if you claim to be working on several.

Many of us have received several great suggestions for SuggestFest and we'd like to do them all, but we know we won't have time. We'll just have to skip some songs, or post them later as regular posts and not submit them for SuggestFest. For example, I've received 5 suggestions, so far. They're all great songs and I'd like to do all 5 of them. But I doubt if I'll complete more than one before the festival ends. I started one at the beginning of the festival and recorded a couple of tracks, but I haven't found the time and motivation to get back to it. Hopefully, I'll be able to finish it before the festival ends, but I might need an extension (I'll send myself a PM ;)). I'll still probably do the remaining 4 songs eventually, but they'll just be regular song posts, not festival submissions (unless they happen to fit the current festival at the time). Of course, I'll still acknowledge the people who made the suggestions in my post. In that sense, my songs will be part of SuggestFest in a small way. But they won't be added to the SuggestFest jukebox and they won't get the SuggestFest banner or message icon. To me, getting the songs done and posted is the important thing. Having them in the SuggestFest jukebox would be nice but it's not a big deal. People will hear the songs whether they're in the jukebox or not.

---

Update: We've decided to include SuggestFest as a choice in the poll for the Sep/Oct 2013 Artsist/Covers festival. See my next message in this topic.

Oh you're so strict Mr 64 - I've started on all my suggestions, of course they might all sound the same ;)

Within minutes of posting my last message, I started to have second thoughts. So I put it to the admin team and oldrottenhead came up with a good idea. What we'll do is include SuggestFest as one of the choices in the next vote. If enough people want to continue with SuggestFest for another two months instead of starting a new Artists/Covers festival, then that's what we'll do. That way, you'll be able to focus on completing the suggested songs rather than getting distracted by a new Artists/Covers festival. Of course, we'll still have a new Theme/Genre festival, so you could get a bit distracted by that. You'll just have to decide what you want to focus on.

If SuggestFest doesn't win the vote, then late submissions will be treated like any other festival, as described above. That is, I'll only add your late submission to the festival if you advised me by PM before August 31st that it will be late.

We've still got a month to go before SuggestFest ends and we vote for the next two festivals. So try to get as many songs completed as you can. And start thinking about whether you want to continue SuggestFest until the end of October or start a new Artists/Covers festival instead. Voting for the Sep/Oct festivals will probably start around August 26th.

What if the suggestfest (which is clearly a winner!) linked with the normal festivals (suggestfest deadrockstar III / suggestfest songs about buildings/ whatever...)?

It opens some nasty opportunities like "I suggest X makes an original about the Talking Heads"...

Sorry all - I have been away on and off all month
so I playing catch up reading  this topic
what a great idea.


Tommy

I had an idea that revolves around the idea of a 'SuggestQuest'. Instead of a festival 'per-se', what if there was a board of suggestions that members could dip in and out of when the mood strikes or when another fellow member suggests 'a must do'. We all have periods when originals are blocked up in our calculation flowings, or we can't think of a cover to tackle and then an idea of a cover tickles us silly. EG. Nick/odh has suggested an Eels song for me to do, but through holiday/family commitments I'm gonna find it almost impossible to fit in although I really wanna do it. Sort of a rolling 'Fest, but substituting the 'Fest element with the 'Quest element. Or maybe just extending the SuggestFest is a simpler and better idea. Forgive the rambling, incoherent nature of this post, but I've just dropped 30mg of Valium..... 9{} and time is against me...

I think that's a great idea - the SuggestFest has breathed a lot of life into the site in what can be a 'slow' period over the summer, captured members' imagination and created new/potentially collabs. It would be great if we could continue it in some way.

We have something like that already. It's a topic started by Greeny back on November 4, 2008, where people listed the names of songs that they'd like to cover but, presumably, weren't able to because there were certain parts that they didn't know how to play or they didn't have the needed instruments. This topic is a great opportunity for people who want to collaborate with other members. Just browse through the topic to find a song that interests you, then contact the person who suggested it and propose a collaboration. Maybe I should move that topic to the Collaborations board and make it a sticky.

https://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?topic=939.0 (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=939.0)

We could do something similar for suggestions. We'll just create a new topic for it in the General Discussion board and I'll make it a sticky topic so it's easy to find. Then people can post their suggestions in that topic.

One problem is that, as the topic grows to many pages in length, it will become time-consuming and confusing to browse through all of the suggestions. I'm finding that already with this topic for SuggestFest. It would be even worse if we created a new board for this purpose as there would be many topics in that board to browse through. So I think it's best to just have the one topic. The admin team could maintain a more concise listing of all of the suggestions in the first message of that topic. It would also be good if we could mark which suggestions have been done already.

But let's not start this new topic until SuggestFest ends, which could be the end of October if enough people vote for that. Until then, we should post our suggestions here in the official SuggestFest suggestions topic.

Would it be improper of me to be tickled pink if dasilvasings covered Head On by Jesus and Mary Chain?

Actually I'd just like to hear any new stuff from Trevor.  Are you out there?

Hey thanks for the nomination... I am around but have had enough going on that it feels like a year since I touched a musical instrument.

I would not have chosen this song but I'm already getting some ideas...

I remember cuthbert did a great rendition way back at Punkfest:

Your assistance has also been requested by Geir and Haylie on "Valley Girl". Not sure if you saw it.

https://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?topic=18828.msg233054#msg233054 (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=18828.msg233054#msg233054)

I've created a Master List of all of the suggestions in this topic so far. It's in the first message of this topic.

https://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?topic=18828.0 (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=18828.0)

That should make it a lot easier to keep track of what's been suggested for you. Just look up your name in the left column. All of the songs suggested for you so far are listed to the right. I've also included a column that indicates if the song is done and links to the topic where it was posted.

Continue posting your suggestions here in this topic, as usual, and I'll try to keep the master list updated as new suggestions are posted. I'll also try to update the "Done" column as songs get posted for SuggestFest.

Creating the list was a huge job, so I wouldn't be surprised if I missed something or made a mistake or two. However, a few incomplete suggestions were left out intentionally as they didn't mention who was meant to do the songs, or they left out a song suggestion completely and only mentioned a member's name. Every suggestion must be for a specific song to be done by one or more specific Songcrafters members.

Also, be sure to include the song title and artist in the text of your message. A YouTube video on its own isn't enough because they can get removed from YouTube. This happened once already and there was no text in the message to indicate what the song was.

And don't suggest songs for yourself, not even as collabs. The idea is to suggest a song for someone else to do. And someone else will suggest a song for you to do. It's okay to suggest that several members collaborate on a song, as long as you're not one of them.

That's quite a list brother...Thanks!!!
Rock On!

good work 64.

I suggest for SwanSong to do Rolling Stones' As Tears Go By.

I'd like to hear Bluesberry cover "Rock and Roll Song" by Valdy. It's a Canadian classic from 1972.

[grooveshark]6830941[/grooveshark]

Maybe Vanncad could do Murray McLauchlan's "Farmer's Song" from 1973.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJbO0quK-cU

Gnasty probably has enough on his plate, but if he finds time (especially if SuggestFest is extended to Oct 31), I'd love to hear his cover of "(Isn't Love Unkind) In My Life" by A Foot in Coldwater.

That's a lot of work you put in there, 64G, but is av very useful list.  I copied the list to Excel and pivoted it, it's a great insight.  I've had four suggested and done 3, whereas I've suggested 6 and had none done. :(

I guess in this life there are those that suggest and those that are suggested to...

I'm not doing the 'Because I Got High' one at the moment but I am working on 2 raps - a cover, Gold Digger (Kanye West) and the 2nd an original. I'm struggling with the first one and find myself thinking (just this morning) how would Nick do it! You are a constant inspiration :D

I wouldn't be too chuffed until you've heard it  ???

I'm nearly there now, I've got some vague notion that I'd like to perform it at some point* - so I've done my usual with my guitar - but I did seriously consider doing something with it in Garageband - you were, so very nearly, my inspiration :D

* I think there's potential for humour, mainly because I'm very white, middle-aged and mumsy - can't quite grasp the funny yet but it's there somewhere so I thought I'd make a start by learning it

That's a lot of work 64, fantastic list.

One for Gnasty....

Cooooooooooool.....

What about this one for you James - Lovesong by The Cure (I prefer Adele's version) - I think you'd do a great job with it (of course you might not want to!) :D


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5f1D9kHogq0

my fave song to dance to, much to the embarrassment of my loved ones

Alfredo please let us listen to your cover of starway to heaven

I think Alfredo and Chunk should get together for a John Martyn song (the only one I know is May You Never and that's already been suggested).

I suggest James suggests a Fester for them.

What a massive suggestion 64..........you hit it right on the sweet spot for me with this one......the guy is a very good guitarist....I'll have to work on this one for a bit....its in Drop D tuning, my current favorite tuning........just listen to his guitar work, thats intense....Thanks for this one.

Wow well done 64 on that list
 Superb ;D

For oldrottenhead and chunk:

"Indigo" by Peter Gabriel

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtCe_Q0D3gI

I've been thinking - what about The Homes of Donegal - Paul Brady, written by Seán McBride for Alfredo and Chunk :)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kk8foQOQVk0

I'd love to hear RonnieJM do the traditional Scottish song "Jamie Raeburn". Any version is fine, but here's one I found on YouTube as an example.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CqXksQFKos

I mentioned this song earlier in a reply to Kenny Mac's Blue for You song and actually I think it makes for a good suggestion for Kenny.

Nice song.  There's a lot of good stuff from DM in this later period (later in my mind anyway).  Would love to do several of their songs from this time, It's No Good, Dream On, Walking in My Shoes...  Something's bubbling up in me for this one, though.  Like my other Depeche Mode cover, there'll not be any synth though.  Don't get the time anymore..

Tainted Love, eh?  Interesting.

There's a few different versions of this song as well as the Soft Cell. There's the original northern soul version, and a nice one by Marilyn Manson, which I'm quite fond of.

The original Soft Cell is seminal for me also though.

I'll have a think about it.

Well, I'd really like someone to sing The Next Time, by Cliff Richard (yes, I know) - I love this song and it has special significance to my parents. Also, I really like the tone in Cliff's voice in the early years. So who to choose to do this one justice . . . Kari (Redler) of course (we'll all be swooning honey!)

The song starts at about 0:40 ish (it does slightly irritate me though the way Sir Cliff hangs on to his consonants in this)
