Dear Mersey

Hello


I think it would be this one:

"NO OTHER LOVE" by Jo Stafford.

Considered, maybe old fashioned, but It is much loved by me.

Take gentle care
Best wishes
Elizabeth,
xx

The one I remember the most is

Oh what a night, late December back in '63
What a very special time for me
As I remember, what a night.

sung by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons released in March 1976 I think. The same month I met my husband. :-D :-D

The power of love by Jennifer Rush. Mine and Oh's song the words are so true for us. It brings a tear to my eye everytime I hear it.

A lot of songs remind me of my beautiful Mam, but "Fever" sung by Peggy Lee more than most. She was a great singer, and could certainly do this song justice,
Unfortunately, I haven't inherited her voice. :-) :-) :-)

We played "It's Over" by Roy Orbison at the funeral of my ex- boyfriend because he was particularly fond of his music.

he also liked Marty Robbins and used to sing "Strawberry Roan". That one always reminds me of him, the lousy, drunken, no good...................!

Hi Janet,
You are spot on. It was the "B" side and you can listen to the original song on Youtube.

we married in 1957 and We Will Make love by Russ Hamilton was the hit song at that time.

I said to hubby this is our song and its has been ever since

We Will Make Love Lyrics
Russ Hamilton
(Oh yes we will make love)

When the moon takes the place
of the sun in the sky
I'll call for my girlie,
We'll go walkin' by
To a place no one knows
That's how love goes
Now we are alone
We will make love
Oh yes, we will make love

I wish we could wed
But we are too young
But one day I know
Wedding bells will be rung
For you and for me
We'll promise to be
So faithful and true
I love you
Oh yes, I love you

Now it's getting late,
Now we must part
But before I go
I will leave you my heart
So don't shed a tear
I'll always be near
I'll hold you so tight
And I'll kiss you goodnight
Oh yes, I'll kiss you goodnight

When I go away
Don't ever let your heart go astray
`cos my love so true
Is only for you
So remember you're mine,
You're mine all the time

When the sun takes the place
Of the moon in the sky
We'll go on a journey
You and I
To a far distant land
Where our dreams were planned
In the clouds up above
We will make love
Oh yes, we will make love
Oh yes, we will make love
