    Does that mean we're permanently back in April, Eddie?

    September in the Rain
    It might as well rain until September

    Why all that rain?

    I'm glad you posted that jonnie, before I made a fool of myself and said it was by The Doobie Brothers - it was a close run thing!

    Well it's a long long time from May (for May read April) to September ...

    Ah - that's September Song, isn't it. Not my favourite.

    D'you think Eddie is running out of ideas to occupy us ?

    By the way what's black and white and read all over,

    sorry red all over?

    Just heard this brilliant item on the one o'clock news about a film about modern setting of the Easter story being pulled because Coca Cola objected to Jesus getting into a car and opening a can of coke. Monty Python couldn't have made it up.

    Here's one, by the lesser-known poet William Topaz McFranagall:

    It is Monday the third of September,
    A day which I hope you will for a very long time remember,
    For, though I shall be a very long way from the Silv'ry Tay,
    It is still, to me at least, a very important day,
    For on that day I can expect to have lots of fun,
    Because once again I shall be twenty-one.


    The scansion is, I admit, a bit dodgy, so it probably needs to be either a jazz song or sorted by a rap artiste.

    But what would you expect from McFranagall?

    after realising that I put my "blue" entries on the wrong thread (duh - stuck them on the prior thread) I'll simply say "September" by David Sylvian.

    oh, and "September the ninth" by Robert Wyatt

    Wasn't there a Duran Duran one? I probably liked that when I was a teenager.

    Can I go for a poem on this one, Eddie? September 1st, by W.H. Auden. Sombre, but not irrelevant.
