It's the song Mike, not the artist.

well i just watched it and i think you are talking balderdash Mr Rolls.
the man is an entertainer and i think everything i have ever seen of his has been magnificent..
ok its not as good as Jerry Marsdens version, but Jerry had been playing it a site longer... ;D

Gerry's version is far better I agree Crabby, I just thought it would be a change today of all days.

Both Liberace and Rieu remind me of the old saying ‘he’s so fond of himself that if he was made of chocolate he’d eat himself’

There used to be a wonderful Liberace museum in Las Vegas. Sadly closed now.
It had a selection of his pianos and outfits. Had to be seen to be believed. I was only talking about it today with the Tesco man who was hoping to go to Vegas later in the year. As some of you know I worked for a year at Uni of Nevada which is just outside the city.

I've been to Las Vegas twice and never gambled..Wasn't even tempted but the casinos are great for good, nicely-priced food and drink 24 hrs a day.. ;D

Nope, missed that one.. The Brits never did master the burger like the yanks and I don't mean McDonalds. Happy to see that Wendy's are expanding in the UK, I like their square patties..
