and that is the case with me, probably Tannie Joan as well as a whole host of others. Just goes to show you. Say what you want to say to a person now because you never know when they will be gone.

Master Jack, my mom use to play it on the guitar to us when we were little
Amanda....(don't know the artist) my dad always asked my mom to play it on the piano. Ha-ha and he used to sing Liefling -Ge Korsten to my mother... such good memories
Walk of Life - Dire Straits it was my dad's favourite and I can just picture him and my mom on the dancefloor. Also anything from Neil Diamond brings a tear to my eye since my dad passed away in July he was a big fan.

I recently got one of those freebie cds in my Saturday paper & on it is "Some Enchanted Evening" from South Pacific. Listening to it made me cry my eyes out as it was one of my Gran's favourite songs & musicals. I remember so many many hours spent in her flat as a child & teenager & her playing the record. :bigcry:
The lyrics are so beautiful:
Some enchanted evening
You may see a stranger,
you may see a stranger
Across a crowded room
And somehow you know,
You know even then
That somewhere you'll see her
Again and again.
Some enchanted evening
Someone may be laughin',
You may hear her laughin'
Across a crowded room
And night after night,
As strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter
Will sing in your dreams.
Who can explain it?
Who can tell you why?
Fools give you reasons,
Wise men never try.
Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love,
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room,
Then fly to her side,
And make her your own
For all through your life you
May dream all alone.
Once you have found her,
Never let her go.
Once you have found her,
Never let her go!
