This made my day...

Post by Steve Stallings »

I stumbled onto this web site of this New Zealand singer by accident. You've got to give her version of "Close to You" a listen.

Simply amazing! Image

Somebody needs to get Winnie in on this one. I see a "comeback" looming.

Looks like the immigration laws have eased up a bit in NZ. Hell I might even have a shot at getting in...

Reminds me of a recording that Merle gave to his nephew of a band called "Skipper and the Boys". WElistened to it for DAYS..

"Tantalizingly Tasteless" "Hauntingly Horrible" are accolades that come to mind...

Can't get enough of it.

I heard that this is Yoko Ono's mom, and she took lessons from Tiny Tim, or is that just an urban legend?

This might get moved out of "Music" (for obvious reasons) and into "Humor" (also for obvious reasons). Image

This isn't funny.....but I did like her renditions of "Fry Me To The Moon" and "Swanee Liver"

I'm moving this back to New Zealand where it belongs

You guys are right (even Howard), this has nothing to do with MUSIC. I'll help Janice by personally delivering it to Donna.
