A song for the day, firstly because I like the music these two make together and individually, and secondly because the title seems appropriate right now.

Entirely appropriate. I was doubtful about watching because I am a big fan of Patsy Cline, but the lady has a fine voice. Well done to both.
I always like Richard’s stuff but these two ‘kids’ are absolutely brilliant. Its been running through my mind all day. Great bit of claw-hammer accompanyment.
Look them up on YouTube.
They were called The Bygones for a while, but have split up, or at least stopped touring, recently, but some of their stuff is very good. And I love the way Josh produces amazing recordings from his small front room. He sings Paul Simon better than Paul Simon these days.
(Replying to Richard) – in Paul Simon’s defence, he is 83 now!
Agreed
Here’s the MSNBC segment entirely appropriate to this song, Richard. In fact, Ari Velshi (standing in for Lawrence O’Donnell call’s Trump and his acolytes CRAZY several times. And Robert Reich closes the segment.
As Velshi says, Trump’s claim that he has a policy on tariffs and the economy is an insult to policy (in similar vein to apologising to bricks for comparing Navarro to one). Velshi knows what he’s talking about when it comes to economic policy so well worth taking 13 minutes to watch this.

It’s warbler time
And swallows are out in force
I’ve been thinking that “Eve of Destruction” is the appropriate song for Trump’s America…

Indeed would need to be crazy for luvin’ Trump, or have no other good options!
Beautifully sung. Crazy?

Why would anybody in their right mind go to the USM(ango)? for business or for pleasure.
Why do the LINO chimps not distance themselves from the USM(ango)?
This circus is going to go on & on until Mango drops dead (given he sees himself as king for life)
I will not be going
I have been more times than I ever needed to do, I now realise
Thank you. Alison Young’s vocal is lovely, and Josh Turner is an astoundingly gifted guitar player. Here’s another gorgeous duet with Reina del Cid, on which the harmonies show his vocal talent also. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBcr4LMF3mc
Thanks
There is a link at the end to Allison Young singing Till There WasYou by the Beatles. This is so pretty I’m going to add it to my karaoke repertoire (I take out my hearing aids when singing).
This is fun…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YJZkTh53KU
Apparently Wiilie Nelson’s original title was “Stupid”, but the record company wouldn’t put it out unless he changed it.
