Thread Name: 'Singing Together' - BBC Song Booklets
Subject: RE: 'Singing Together' 1958 UK
Does anyone remember the "votes" for best song at the end of the year? I think this was on "Rhythm and Melody". I remember the presenter was a man with a northern accent, and when he announced one year, (would have been 1960 or 61) that the winner was "Who Is Sylvia?" the whole class was incredulous, as we were sure it would be "Men of Harlech", which we would all sing lustily, even though we were in Egham, in Surrey!
I can't remember my class voting, perhaps we couldn't afford the postage.
