Mary Hopkin "For All My Days"

FOR ALL MY DAYS
From the film "Kidnapped"
Jack Fishman / Roy Budd

This film is now available on DVD and as a bonus unlike the Audio CD and VHS the music does not fade out at the end and we get the whole song.

Lyrics
For all my days in many ways
I'll think of all I've lived to see
The mountains high, clouds in the sky
I thank the Lord for sharing them with me

The summer's glow, the winter's snow
Are not to me just scenery
When tree tops sway I long to say
Oh thank you Lord for sharing them with me

Life I believe, love we receive
We shouldn't take too casually
For all my days in many ways
I'll thank the Lord for sharing them with me

"You Look Familiar"

I don't know whether I should say thanks for this. It's 4-30 in the morning and I have to be up early in the morning and I can't stop watching these Mary Hopkin videos. She's every bit as great as I remember her all those years ago. I'm going to suffer tomorrow but what a beautifuk voice.

If wales was always sunny it would mean no rain to make the landscape as lush as it is ;) and you would not appreciate it as much when the sun is shining brightly :D

[richpat]

@3tangle3 Yes very true...But we do get more than our fair share of the wet stuff...LOL

I think the Mass Media Passed Over This Lady & I call FOUL ! I think to them She was & IS TO-2 Bu-ty-FULL w/ a PURE Clean & Clear Voice. MAJOR Over-Look here & SHE HAS TALENT Mega For-EVER !

@richpat Ah, yes,sorry - missed that. The film Kidnapped with Michael Caine this music is in is a brilliant film, full of old scottish politics from the 17th/18th century. The music in the film Get Carter also with Michael Caine, music also scored by Roy Budd is also brilliant. Good clip of Roy Budd playing the theme music of it, with clips of Get Carter as well, here. An excellent vid,

All the very best to you.
