Karaoke Friday

Well I hope people weren't too shocked at my choice of music for Karaoke. I wanted to do something a bit different and a bit more challenging.

I'll bet you look good on the dance floor by the Arctic Monkeys is very topical as they released the fastest selling debut album in the history of the UK.

Half man half biscuit's 24 hour garage people is a classic in British sarcasm and with such a dark ending.

Meline's choice of song was as ever very pretty and beautifully sung. A modern version of the classic "Twinkle twinkle little star".

Not many people realise that this famous children's song has five verses:-

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

Then the traveller in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

As your bright and tiny spark,
Lights the traveller in the dark,—
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
