Name That Tune 33

11

A little late this week, but here we go with Name That Tune 33. It will be the penultimate game of this series, next week will be the last. Christmas is creeping up on us, and I most likely won’t have time to keep up with this game in December. The new series, in which everybody starts from the beginning as far as the scores are concerned, will start in January.

Let’s see if anyone can catch up with Spnnrn, who at the moment leads the field.

First though, let’s have a look at last week…

Last week I presented a classic from the movie “High Society” The song I was looking for was True Love‘ as performed by Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly. The cover I was talking of was by Elton John and Kiki Dee. For a bonus point, I wanted to know which version you liked best.

Five Points then go to Trish and Todd, Dan, Alan Novich, Clete6 and Spnnrn. Well done all of you!

this weeks song was one of the biggest selling UK singles of all time and was released in 1981 … let’s see if you recognise it.

This instrumental song was a hit all over Europe in 1971,
got to no. 5 in the UK, no. 3 in Germany and no. 1 in Switzerland. Do you know this one???

You may have seen that I have started our old charity “Bridge to the Stars” again. After paying in the balance of 75 Euros to the Hamburg Childrens Hospice, we have started from scratch, and after one week, the total already stands $13.91, due mainly to a generous donation by Andy.

If you think you would like to help, then you have 2 choices. Either buy your xmas goods and Cds etc. through the online store, or, if you feel able, then you are welcome to make a donation via Paypal, by filling in the details at the foot of the sidebar

Remember, you are helping sick children. More about our charity on the Bridge to the Stars page
