Someone gave me a set of coasters made from old 78 records...... just the labels and the actual music thrown away.
I felt sad in a way, that these old 78 records are all being turned into plant pots and coasters and the music is being lost forever.
So I though I would hunt down this particular piece of music and see if I could find it. After much searching, I managed to track down a copy of it on YouTube.
I might just learn to play it and sing it to Kitty. :)
Here are the words...... do sing along.........
Just like a sunflower lives for a sunshower
My inspiration is you
Just like the joy after hearing a child's laughter
My inspiration is you
You're like the dream of every poet
You stand supreme, how glad I am to know it
Just like a real sweetheart craves an ideal sweetheart
My inspiration is you
We all need someone we can lean upon
To give us guidance when we're woebegone
We're all like ships lost on the ocean
Until the light breaks through the dawn
@lsquared I have a collection of 78s I have been gathering from charity shops and car boot sales. Fortunately I have an old Dansette record player that will play 78s..
how sweet... we had some old records garnered from a garage sale i think i threw them out because they were just gathering dust,...now i feel bad about that!
I am sure Kitty will thrilled when you sing it to her.
I still have a collection of LP's and 45's from the 1960s and I have a few 78s too that belonged to my Mum.

I have a collection of 78 records from my parents' youth. Sadly, I don't have a means to play them these days.
