Hi All,

you have probably heard that the BBC, sometime ago, introduced `Struttin with some barbecue` as `Strutting with a piece of Barbecue`.

Today, playing some old dance band stuff I found the Stars fell on Alabama lyric sung as

Never dreamed in my imagination
a situation so heavenly
A fairyland that only we can enter
And in the centre `You and I, dear.

The true Brit singer couldn`t force himself to say `You and me` to make the rhyme with `heavenly`

Education is a fine thing.


Pip pip old things

Pat  :-)
