I just discovered this group through Folio Devotees. I hope this one will be as stimulating as that one has been for me. Anyway I just heard from the BBC World Service that Vera Lynn had broken into the British top twenty. This is quite amazing for a popular singer who was at her height some three score and tens years ago. I know that I have liked her work even though I as born twenty some years after the Second World War. Does anyone else on this work enjoy her work? I know that this is not quite on the literature theme of this group but Anglophilia takes form in many ways. BBC 3 anyone?

Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn? Remember how she said that we would meet again, some sunny day?

We're going to be so embarrassed when a dozen of us turn up. She played us for suckers!

Actually I purchased two of her albums but Ijust considered myself somewhat an eccentric when I play them in the classroom after school I do get comments!

I have her We'll Meet Again album on cassette tape which unfortunately I haven't heard in quite awhile. She was known as England's Song Bird and had a very beautiful voice.

Oooh - I love that song even though I am generations younger than those who actually heard it played as an anthem and thanks to you fine people I now know who sung it. Thanks!
