Divishti Rankin of Australia

I'm relaying a question asked by Bob Bossin:

"La chanson francee" is set to Edith Piaf's "La vie en rose". Divishti Rankin of Australia had the idea for the new lyric. I learned her version from Judy Small and then continued to twist it into its present shape. My efforts to find Divishti Rankin have failed. Can you help?

G'day semi-submersible,

The name rings no bell for me.

... A Google on "Divishti Rankin" brought up only Bob Bossin's query

... Just "Divishti" brought up 4 references to a "Divishti" who is a female comedian from Queensland ... and 2 more to "DIVISHTI" - who seem to be a band.

Have you directly approached Judy Small? She has returned to law practice (well - last time I heard ... ) but should be traceable. (She was in law practice with frequently hilarious ex-Pom singer/songwriter Bernard Bolan ... but he has retired to the depths of Victoria!)

I do have some e-mail lists that might find Judy (or, at least, Bernard ... who might know). If I turn up anything useful ... I'll be back.

Regards,

Bob

I'll forward your query on to a local Maleny Muso who will know where to find Divishti ...

Cheers!

she's an old friend of mine - yes, she wrote the song, and gave Judy small permission to sing it. she's also an excellent comedian. if you pm me i'll send you her details.

best wishes

G'day,

I guess Divishti's reply was addressed to Bob Bossin ... so I've e-mailed it to him, via his web site (linked by semi-submersible).

Regards,

Bob (Bolton)
