Sing, sing a song ?

One of my favourite TV programs when I was at school was
‘ Take Three Girls ‘ and Pentangle performed the theme tune .

Pentangle formed in 1967 lemongrove and like many bands have had players come and go, obviously Jansch as he died in 2011, but they do still play occasionally.

You mean you don't listen to them anymore then joannapiano?

Today I've been listening to some 60s classics, well that's what I call them anyway. Yesterday it was 70s classics. Tomorrow, who knows but I'll be singing along.

Happy by Pharrell Williams always lifts my spirits.
In my Hippy phase I used to listen to Pentangle.

ps yes I did post it before but it needs to be repeated.

Exactly TFP
I thought I had already posted this, but maybe not -

So many but Bruce Springsteen, Dancing In The Dark really gets me motivated. It tells me to shape up, stop being so bloody pathetic and just get on with it - whatever "it" happens to be.

After I heard that the Cavern club in Liverpool may have to close, I have spent an hour listening to the Beatles.
Also listen to Titanium if I feel a bit frail. Boosts me.
I like most music classical, folk, pop - anything really.

How about “l hear you knocking but you can’t come in”?

Cherry I haven’t met anyone before who has even heard of Pentangle I couldn't quite remember if I had the name right in fact, it’s over 50 years ago since they played ( or started playing).

I only managed to get to see the Beatles once ( I think it was 1963/64) and I couldn't hear a damn thing for all the
screaming which enraged me considerably! It wasn’t a huge venue either.It must have annoyed them a bit too I should think, yes, they wanted fans, but surely wanted the fans to hear them.

When my son was a toddler he kept asking to hear "The Get No Song". Months later he heard it on the radio..... it was The Stones singing "I can't get no satisfaction"

honeyrose It's my claim to fame! I can (and frequently do) bore for England about my Beatles escapades. I have been on local radio telling my tales a few times. The picture I have with me sitting behind them on stage has been blown up and is by our front door in the hope that someone will ask about it and I can bore some more. They rarely do. My daughter frequently says 'mum, not again please!' Actually it may only have been four times.

Kate1949, my husband is very impressed that you have seen the Beatles 5 times! He’s a Beatles fan, but has never seen them. We have seen Tom Jones - about 15 years ago. Wonderful! Nothing beats a live concert. I also love musicals, particularly Phantom, Les Mis, Cats, Miss Saigon (so bittersweet!), Mama Mia & Lion King. Really love the music from Les Mis and I have the CD which I play when I’m feeling the need for a Les Mis fix. The world would be a much duller place without music. It’s life-enhancing.

Back in 1984 my flat sparkled on Saturday mornings after I vacuumed to this classic . RIP George.

Beautiful lyrics Woodmouse.
Don't know why I've stayed up so late tonight,
Our love story is like another Carpenter's song -
We've only just begun
www.youtube.com/watch?v=__VQX2Xn7tI&pbjreload=101
This was the second time around for both of us and TG we're still together 'after 40 years' +.
Trying to find the guitar riff for this song - it's brilliant -
but seems to be another one that youtube has cancelled .

For the lyrics and his voice: Mirrorball by Elbow
It says it all about my DH and myself - meeting again after 44 years. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjlSr2zg9Jo

Queen - everything - loudly www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tJYN-eG1zk

To remind me what I loved to dance to in the 60s.
Marvin - Heard it through the Grapevine

DiscoGran - I've just realised that your original post title refers to the Carpenter's song:

another one of my favourites which I used to play on the piano and sing along to until old age hit.

lemongrove, Pentangle definitely did do a version of Lyke Wake Dirge which is one of many reworkings of the 17th century text. Bert Jansch was an amazing guitarist.
I have many Pentangle albums (all vinyl) and had the privilege to see them play many years ago.

Music is on every day in our house. Me and my partner often sing along. We like many different types of music, except most opera and we're definitely not disco fans.

If I need to get myself moving I play I love to boogie by T Rex. Or I saw her standing there or anything by the Beatles,
I love ZZtop. Sharp dressed man
Any of those will get me through the housework,

honeyrose Lucky you. I'm envious. This isn't bragging but I was a Beatle nut. I saw them five times and have a photo of myself with them. I saw the Rolling Stones, Tom Jones, Elton John's, Tony Bennett, many more. Apologies. That does sound like bragging. Michael Bublé took some beating I have to say.

I saw Michael Buble too, Kate1949. At Nottingham last December. Brilliant! Seen him 4 of 5 times altogether, but the December concert was the best.

Beatles for me. I can bop around the kitchen to Happy Just To Dance With You with the lovely George on vocals. I love Michael Bublé too honeyrose. I'm so glad we got to see him live before lockdown. He was amazing. What a showman.

Barry White, My first my last my everything.
Nina Simone, My baby just cares for me.
Jerry Lee Lewis, Great balls of fire.
Queen, anything
Status Quo, anything
Johnny Cash, Sunday morning coming down, only after a good Saturday night out.
Definitely a pop person, like a bit of jazz, classical, folk but can't bear opera.

It still does merlotgran. I want to grow my hair again and wear a minidress.

Michael Buble songs! I especially love his Frank Sinatra covers. I love other stuff too - particularly from the 1970’s which is my era. Also ABBA, Simon & Garfunkel, Queen, Elbow (One Day Like This), Marvin Gaye. I love music with a good beat!

French pop music was definitely inferior to English in the sixties. I really couldn't get the appeal of Johnny Halliday although I liked Richard Anthony but wandering around singing Francoise Hardy's 'Tous les garcons at les filles de mon age' felt so cool.'
