Thread Name: WWII songs
Subject: RE: WWII songs
Looks like about 12 hrs of material there! I'm keeping the lists in case I do a show like that. If I do, however, I would omit the German songs so as to avoid offense. "Lili Marlene" did become popular in the UK and later among the other Allies. My own favorite is "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square" - for the melody rather than for the words. (Americans note: it's pronounced Barcl'y.) == Johnny in Oklahoma City
