La Mer
- 24 August 2010 21:5567091Today from the Admiralty pier, and the sight and sound of a stormy sea. Now a quiet image, and the only sound I hear is Debussy. No match for mother nature, but possibly the nearest we`ll get to the sound of the sea. Sorry, but Debussy is one of my top three favourite composer`s, and of course he loved the sea, as do I.
Tell them that I came, and no one answered. - 24 August 2010 21:5767093i thought you were referring to an edith piaf song colin.

24 August 2010 22:1767096Howard, Edith Piaf did sing it but it really belongs to Charles Trenet who wrote and sang it.
Bobby Darin sang the English version, Beyond the Sea. - 24 August 2010 22:1767097Milord no Howard! You`re not a Debussy connoisseur then?Tell them that I came, and no one answered.
- 24 August 2010 22:2667098thanks for that alec.
colin i am a great fan of debussy, but he does not seem to have had anything in the top 40 for ages. - 24 August 2010 22:3067100Not many music lover`s about these days among the young I suspect Howard.Tell them that I came, and no one answered.
