Subject: RE: Inappropriate melodies,ctd.
Just read this thread for the first time. I was up untill about 3.00am Saturday night in the Orillia area and we spent the last half of the night fitting bothGilligans Island and Amazing Graze to everything we could think of, they fit everything with one exception. Great Fits; Fanny Power, Ludwig's 9th(Ode to Joy) Great Exceptations, (apologies to any Dickensian's) Dave Brubecks Take 5, put it was late by then.

We used to do the While Shepherds to Ikley Moor, whilst it is still best for a sing alongs, we now use the tune "Otford", an 18th cent fugeing tune for performances. JohnB
