Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Rab Noakes songs From: Herma Date: 30 Jun 00 - 12:32 PM Thanks John, for your reply! The lyrics I'm looking for are: "What would have happened if I'd stayed around", "Without me ,just with you", "East neuk misfortune", "Turn a deaf ear", "The 2nd Mariner's Song" Hope you can help, love, Herma |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Rab Noakes songs From: GUEST,JMCC Date: 03 Jul 00 - 08:55 AM Herma, No problem with the first four, all from "Do you see the lights." Will be in touch with lyrics. Not so sure about "Mariner" though. Any more info?. Will double check albums in case it's one I've forgotten about. If all else fails can check it out with Robert (Rab) himself. love, john. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Rab Noakes songs From: Herma Date: 04 Jul 00 - 02:50 PM John, Thanks for your trouble so far! Second Mariner's song appears not to be a Rab Noakes song, but written by a P.Morgan. Do you know anything about him by chance?? Will wait for you to get in touch, there's no hurry !! Love, Herma |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Rab Noakes songs From: Herma Date: 31 Jul 00 - 03:48 PM John, Just to get back to my request: were you able to find any lyrics of the above mentioned songs? Have been out of touch for a while, due to the holidays etc. Will you let me know? Thanks, Love, Herma |
