Our theme songs are back. First we had animals, then places, now we have names. But because we might easily run out of names it’ll be fine to post songs with he, she, him, her, mine, I etc in the name. Here’s one for starters.

Mamma mia
Migs, to Sir With Love, the first movie where the issue of color was brought forward. It challenged the older generation and their ideas that to be “of colour” equated with being inferior. The younger generation loved it. I was about 15 years old..so you might have been too young to remember.
I wasn’t born yet, Min.
I’ll get’cha for that one Migs…hey where could you find a woman like that…perhaps in May..
Time for something up nice and loud..I used to play guitar once too, sadly due to my hands no longer a possibility.
Yesterday don’t matter if it’s gone..
For our Tony
Now let’s get ready to rock..
It’s not a name, but you know why..
Ginger was always bitter that she did not get the same recognition for her dancing as Fred. She used to say I did everything he did but backwards and in high heels. Ginder get my vote
Luna, re doing everything that you do but backward in high heels, my bloke is a bit like that too..only he rarely wears high heels.
This lady will be performaing in Albury next month. I wonder if she’ll bring the dancers with her. Maybe not. They’d be in their 70s now.
That’s my home..see the crazy gypsy in my soul..
You fill up my senses…
And now something just for me..volume up nice and loud.. what else for me.
And this song was from which Broadway musical and the female star (who was not a singer) was..double dare and only minimal Googling allowed..
This one is the ringtone on my iPhone.
Have been advised that I posted off thread and that the song supposed to have “names” in them so here goes:
C’est chanson d’amour du Manhatten Transfer..c’est si bon, mais c’est une autre chanson.
Et maintenant voici, c’est si bon..
What a feeling…
This made every teenage girl cry back then.
One I doubt many of you will know about…Signe (me) by Eric Clapton.. ok no words.. but hey what can I say.
Signe, what a lucky girl to have Eric Clapton write that melody just for you.
What hat did you pull that one out of, Signe?
If you’re worried about Signe Migs, you’re gonna really wonder where I pulled this from…
Do I dare listen to it, Bacchus?
BTW, where’s my breakfast?
This isn’t a song, but it’s worth singing about. This Saturday Port Adelaide are playing the West Coast here in Canberra. You can still get a motel, surprisingly.
I won’t admit to any culinary skills – you’ll just want me to cook as well as clean and tidy & laundry duties and…
You’re not going to believe this:
@Min, I was delighted when he offered… ok now for the truth, I
am thinking he knew either someone, or had history in Sweden, it’s an old….old Swedish name and pretty rare these days out of Sweden, it was my grandmothers name therefore handed down to me.
Or this:
Miglo, you have a wonderful voice.
Very impressive isn’t it, Roswell.
