Sayings

Music, Nostalgia, Songs

 

This week’s theme, SAYINGS, includes song titles that have been incorporated into our everyday vernacular.  Aretha Franklin‘s ‘That’s Life’, Monty Python‘s ‘Always Look on ‘The Bright Side Of Life’ and Johnny Farnham‘s ‘Rose Coloured Glasses’ portray some of our often used expressions.  John Paul Young, the Aussie Highlight of the week, tries his luck as a ‘Soldier of Fortune’ while Merv Benton is suggesting to ‘Yield Not To Temptation’.
