I’m pretty sure there is a song that has wishing and hoping..but my memory is a bit Dusty.

An original on guitalele in drop g tuning..gdgcea. Lyrics on youtube.

Before Harvest Moon...there was just Harvest. Visuals are of some recent oil paintings. Descriptions on Youtube. Good to see ya Kev!

I’ll probably just stand on my head and play Young Neil’s Moon Harvest.

While a Paddington hard stare is harsh it may be preferable to a Liverpool Kiss.

I have a mate Mick Blacksmith. He can trace his family back generations to a family of iron mongers (blacksmiths) in County Cork Ireland. I'm wondering what Ron's ancestors did? edit...I was making a slightly rude joke but on googling a sexsmith is someone who makes scythes or similar bladed...

I think on Ron's cover site the most covered artist may be Warren Zevon. Just goes to show Ron's good taste. This is there. One of the last ones Warren wrote when he knew he was on the way out.

Thanks for this theme Joo! I don't really like going first but I see I'm already on the playlist...so time to man up! People who are not so familiar with RS should scroll through that covers youtube site of his that Joo linked to. He's has done many well known covers.

The week hasn’t even started…I’m sure the Bawdy Bard of Birmingham will prevail!

Submit two covers John or as The Crystals implored " Do Ron Ron."

Thanks for the generous theme Sabine. Here's a Randy Newman with a fast beating heart. One of my searching methods for songs is to google an artist I like -the word lyric -then a key word for the challenge...so in this case I googled Randy Newman lyric fast. And this song came up. Not a bad...

That’s rather harsh criticism. I may have to report it to the forum moderato.

I knew a poultry farmer who played his chooks fast classical music. He claimed it made alleggro very quick.

I think in one of my bad puns during the week I used Star Anise to refer to you..somewhat prescient! Well done Northern Johns.

An early Rolling Stone's musing on wealth, class and power. I'm pretty sure St John's Wood and Knightsbridge are still desirable posh London suburbs...but I wonder if Stepney is still a less than salubrious address. I know if a song had been written about about Sydney mentioning a suburb in a...

Here's one from Iron and Wine. The official video on Youtube of this is good with percussion provided by a troupe of rather beautiful Flamenco dancers. Alas all the local Sydney Flamenco dancers were taking a siesta when I recorded.
