Good morning, Elle!
Rain here!
Cranberries are an Irish band. "Linger" was quite a successful song they did.I have listened to more versions of Little Drummer Boy,
by Johnny Cash, Joan Baez, Emmylou, Vienna Boys Choir, etc and still prefer Boney M's version. Rum pum pum pum!
I think lead singer Liz Mitchell's personality has a lot to do with that.
I noticed at the end of the song she was balancing on very high heels and tapping her toes at the same time and still singing.
I was impressed. She must have a great sense of balance.
I have not heard Bing singing on his own.
Hope the shopping goes well!
Rum pum pum pum!

I think Bing sang "Little Drummer Boy" as a duet with David Bowie. I may be hallucinating that, though!

Hi everyone,

Rusty, you must have sent your nice weather to me ! Sunny, very frosty and very cold. Much better.

The Little Drummer Boy (L'enfant au Tambour) was sung in French by Nana Mouskiri; there may have been other version but this is the only one I know - she does/did have a wonderful voice.

Sorry, Nana Mouskouri - finger nails too long.

Don't know how to 'copy' the reference, but try

if it works, you should see a very old version of Nana - it's not good video but the voice is there.

sorry again

If everything fails, type L'enfant au Tambour - that may be safer since I don't get the video via my link

Good morning, Pigale and Chris,
Nana Mouskouri is superb at it. I watched her last night, Pigale.
Bing is better on his own at it, I think.
Helene Fischer (she is new to me, maybe German?) is very good too.
But I still prefer Boney M.
Rum pum pum pum!

Hi, Rusty!
I am shattered! You are very wise not to go shopping!
And parking the car was a nightmare!!
But I did have a successful trip! I haven't finished it all though - will probably go again on Thursday before I do "Ladies who Lunch".
Wow, you have certainly listened to a lot of versions of "Little Drummer Boy". I think I might stick with Bing.
Funnily enough, almost every shop we went into this morning, were playing Bing - great stuff!
How is the front door coming along?
You forgot the 'pa'.......
Pa rum pum pum pum..........
