MW (music) Lyr Req: When Priscilla Tries to Reach High C (8) RE: Lyr Req: When Priscilla Tries to Reach High C 19 Jun 14


Sorry, my mistake, that reference - that I made in my last posting - to "Norman Long" and "www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AHbG_eOkc" - was an error: I erroneously! referred to a completely DIFFERENT comedy/musical hall song-video uploaded at YouTube.

BTW, that Norman Long song is a GREAT number that I happened to find today at YouTube: it is called
"Why is the Bacon So Tough?". It was written in 1928. Super lyrics. Well worth a look at!

The Norman Long version isn't a complete rendition (there are better videos of the same song at YouTube, if you want to hear the whole version!), but it is the best for explaining the origins of this wittily, if bizarrely!, titled song.

So back to "Priscilla in high C" . . .
,-)
Still looking for that sound file . . .
