Lyrics

People–people who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world,
We’re children, needing other children
And yet letting our grown-up pride
Hide all the need inside,
Acting more like children
Than children.

Lovers are very special people,
They’re the luckiest people
In the world.
With one person, one very special person
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you were half,
Now you’re whole.
No more hunger and thirst
But first be a person
Who needs people.
People who need people
Are the luckiest people
In the world!

Art for charity

Thanks to Peter for this link to DSB’s contribution to another fund raising event

This time she was among dozens of celebrities who sketched a drawing to be auctioned for the National Literacy Trust

Don’tcha just love their summary:-

“In her astonishing five decades in the music industry, Dame Shirley Bassey has been wowing fans old and young with her distinctive, diva-esque delivery”

( I wonder when the word “Diva” started as a description of Shirley. It might have been in the 1990’s.
Anyone know when? )

(Non-DSB) Remember that kilt?

Nicky Spence, as we all cannot forget, was the Special Guest on the June tour

A fine Scottish tenor

I enjoyed his singing, and am pleased he is doing well

Here’s a link to some good news about Nicky’s career
