…that’s what Petula Clark sang back in 1960somethingorother. Words beautifully delivered but ignored by this woman traveller on the subway in Boston, The United States Of America, who almost ended up with a severe case of head-mash when she drunkenly fell on to the track for a kip. It would never happen in the UK – she’d [...]

A theatre in the Pacific Northwest region has announced that next year's line-up will include "Spotlight on MAE WEST " as part of their 2010 season. • • Four musical spotlights — — focused on king-size personalities of the past — — will delight ticket-holders who adore the Brooklyn bombshell, Harold Arlen, The Mills Brothers, and "British Invasion"...
I find this idea amazing: Take a 300-member choir of hormonally-charged teenagers, male and female, and give them the song "Whenever I Call You 'Friend'" as part of their repertoire; have them practice daily for the next two months. What a fun trick to play on their parents, who will unwittingly show up at a high school concert one fateful evening, expecting to hear Gregorian chant, Petula...
When I read that David Cameron had been instructed to repay £18.16 by Legg because of an overpayment to him of mortgage interest I thought: hold your hand out, you naughty boy, which naturally led me to Marie Lloyd and YouTube. Alas, British music hall is thin on the ground and original songs moreso. I couldn't bear a Petula Clark or Alma Cogan re-jig so this will have to do and makes the point...

I’ve written before that I came out late in life . Reflecting back, however, there were signs of my gayness that I did not recognize back when I was in elementary and high school. I knew I was different but I choose to ignore it and repress it. * I checked-out and listened to all the Broadway Cast Albums in our local library when I was in junior high school. I made mix-tapes of my favorite Broadway...
The '60 survivor takes an emotional journey through her career, including her new album and the hit that started it all, Jagger-Richards' 'As Tears Go By.' Marianne Faithfull has lived a life of reinterpretation. She began as a pretty young face with a sweet voice, scoring her first hit with the precocious Jagger-Richards ballad "As Tears Go By," a 1964 Brit-pop single that might have suggested...
Another wonderful eccentric comedian whose act mainly consisted of "Ooohs!" "AaaahS" "O no missus!" and camp innuendo. Apparently the script writers had to include all the asides- the oohs, the aahs etc. in the actual script! Wikipedia says- "Howerd was born the son of a soldier, Francis A. W. Howard in York, North Yorkshire, England, in 1917 (not 1922 as he later...
