jets A Song That Moved You? (108* d) RE: A Song That Moved You? 09 Mar 99


when a boy I learned La Paloma on the accordion.I never knew the lyrics for 40 yrs but just the melody pulled me Mother said that she always knew when I was about to look for a ship and go off to sea again.You always went up stairs and would play La Paloma over and over and then you woud be gone ,off to sea again.I only knew the song as The sailors song.After finding the words I understood why but the music alone conveyed the sentiment of the song. On a more recent note Eric Bogl's Now I am resting Easy and especialy that line about having his aons buried on the Burma Railway realy get me.
