Name That Tune 3.17

What happens when the wife has a holiday and is off work at the same time as yourself? Yup, you got it, all your plans go haywire. Which of course is what happened to Name That Tune this week. Been out all day today of course doing things that I really wouldn’t do otherwise.

Luckily I’m managing to slip it in very quickly in a spare moment, so let’s see what you make of these two tunes

This is a soundtrack from the movie of the same name, and thus I am looking for the actress who sang this song. A great movie btw, one of the wifes very favorites

Oh, fortune! It appears that the wife is tired from todays undertakings and has fallen asleep, thus giving me the chance (I hope) to talk about last week.

Last weeks offerings were Asia – Heat of  The Moment (which not everyone found easy. Sorry Debi, this week will be more to your liking) and Procol Harum’s In Held Twas I.

Twas correctly identified by Alan Novich, Andy, Trish and Todd, Mike daddyo (got there in the end), mschomike and Elvisaaron! Well done all :)

The table

59 – Alan Novich 52 – Trish & Todd 38 – Dan 4 – Ellie

53 – Andy 42 – Mike (daddyo) 7 – Debi 4 – duncanw

      Achilles Heel my foot!! (if you will excuse my dreadful pun). You were spot on with both songs as usual. However, I do now know where your weakness may lay…. :)
