Since the beginning of this series, I have asked you to share your favourite music with links in the comments. I thought I would create a special playlist, sharing the track and link to the latest post of those requesting the song.
Next week I am back in the driving seat with more tracks that are on my personal playlist and some of the background behind them.
Jacquie Biggar is clearly a romantic musical fan and she has requested this track from 7 Brides for 7 Brothers, which was watched many times when I was growing up. If you love romance, you will enjoy Jacquie’s blog and books…
Janice Spina has requested another classic musical favourite with Singing in the Rain with Gene Kelly.. here is an excerpt from the film. Janice is an award winning children’s author and also writes as J.E. Spina for adults.
John Rieber – enjoys all music but mentioned E.L.O (Electric Light Orchestra) and since I can tell that the Flash Mob videos are popular.. here is All Over the World with a tribute to the Mobbers and a not to John’s travels.
Judy E. Martin is a humourist and poet, who sees the irreverent side of life…head over and enjoy her gardening poetry… She is also clearly an optimist! As she has chosen In the Summertime by Mungo Jerry…hahaha.
Hopefully by the time you read this the sun will be shining, especially as we have the Royal Wedding tomorrow.. Enjoy your weekend, and next week back to the regular Drive-Time Playlist, and another chance for you to add your requests to the comments. Thanks Sally
I love Singing In The Rain – we saw it live in the West End, daughter’s friend got a bunch of cheap tickets and we were right up in the gods – the stage filled with water for that number. ps I’m just writing about music for my five questions.

Thank you for another Friday collection of songs! Right now I’m learning a bunch of songs with music by Harry Warren (almost all of them written for Hollywood movies) and am looking forward to doing a program of songs from MGM musicals later this year. Great inspiration from your first two selections!

Me, too. I adored musicals. Rogers and Hammerstein were the best. Those songs still give me a lump in the throat.
