I don’t know if I’ve posted this before.. but even if I have, here it is again..
Voices
We’ve watched The Voice – Kids the last couple of Sundays – I love to hear great voices, and get a bit teary at all the family hugs beforehand… where have all these kids with “old” voices come from, though? 9- or 11- or 13 – year-olds who sound at least 35…when did that happen? It’s worth checking it out just for the “wow” factor.
There’ve been other “old” singers online lately – everybody’s probably seen this one, but I’ll share it anyway. 🙂
Here’s a 7-year-old Norwegian girl (Angelina Jordan) singing Billie Holiday..
…and again, singing Nancy Sinatra (I gather Nancy’s version was a cover, as well – anyone know who sang the original?)
This is a clip from Britain’s Got Talent, and she’s an adult. She seems quite dotty, though – thought I’d finish with a cheery bit of talent!
Ernie And Blake
I have every intention of posting some book reviews 😀 but I’ve been wandering around some old clips. Enjoy! (although if you don’t know Blakes 7 and/or Benny Hill, this may not make much sense…)
Happy New Year!
Another year over – a new one just begun..
Let’s make it a good one!
(I used to love this show – my littlest bean loved it, and it still reminds me of him 😀 )
With Us
We’ve had this clip during church services the last couple of weeks – a reminder of what we’re celebrating tomorrow..
..and this is a reworking of an old favourite..
He has come for us, this Jesus –
He is the hope for all mankind..
Nearly There..
Just over a day to the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special..
Here’s a lovely little animation – made by Richard Swarbrick.. enjoy!
Into The Open Air
I’ve been wending my way round YouTube, listening to whatever song catches my fancy.
Here’s one…..
The song is lovely… but the background images just make it better.
This world is a beautiful place.
A Letter From Fred
A competition for songwriters received a letter from Fred, with the words that he’d written for his late wife. They’d been together for 75 years.
The holders of the competition decided to set the words to music, in honour of Fred, and his sweet Lorraine.
This is their song.
