In about 1700, the tradition of #AprilFoolsDay was popularised. We’re all foolish sometimes – especially in #love #Singing #Feelgood
Why do fools fall in love?
Love is a losing game,
Love can be a shame I
know of a fool, you see,
For that fool is me!
Tell me why, tell me why?
Why do birds sing so gay
And lovers await the break of day?
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from up above?
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do they fall in love?
Why does my heart skip a crazy beat?
For I know it will reach defeat!
Tell me why, tell me why?
Why do fools fall in love?

In 1889, the #EiffelTower opened. Here is a classic French song from Edith #Piaf #Singing #Feelgood
La vie en rose
Des yeux qui font baisser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voila le portrait sans retouche
De l’homme auquel, j’appartiens
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il ma dit des mots d’amour
Des mots de tous les jours
Et ca me fait quelque chose
Il est entré dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C’est lui pour moi
Moi pour lui dans la vie
Il me l’a dit, l’a jure pour la vie
Et, des que je l’apercois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat
Des nuits d’amour ne plus en finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des enuis des chagrins, des phases
Heureux, heureux a en mourir
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d’amour
Des mots de tous les jours
Et ca me fait quelque chose
Il est entré dans mon Coeur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C’est toi pour moi
Moi pour toi dans la vie
Il me l’a dit, m’a jure pour la vie
Et, des que je l’apercois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat
Lalalala, lalalala
La, la, la, la

It is Easter Sunday! Here is an appropriately named song from #MottTheHoople #Singing #Feelgood
Roll away the stone
Won’t you roll away the stone
Why be cold and so alone?
Won’t you roll away the stone
Don’t you let it die
No matter if fools say we can’t win
I know I’ll fall in love again
Roll away the stone, roll away the stone
So sing – we still got a chance
Baby in love and sweet romance
Roll away the stone, roll away the stone
Won’t you roll away the stone
Why be cold and so alone?
Won’t you roll away the stone
Don’t you let it lie
There’s a rockabilly party on saturday night
Are you gonna be there
(well I got my invite)
Gonna bring your records
(ohh, will do)
Made it!
Won’t you roll away the stone
Why be cold and so alone?
Won’t you roll away the stone
Don’t you let it die
Come on roll
Come on roll, yeah
Come on roll
I want you to roll
Come on….. yeah
Come on roll

In 1998 #Titanic won 11 #AcademyAwards. Here is the theme song #Singing #Feelgood
My heart will go on
Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you, go on
Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you, go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you’re here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we’re gone
Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to.
In my life we’ll always go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you’re here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
You’re here, there’s nothing to fear
And I know that my heart will go on
We’ll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

In 1930, the great songwriter Stephen #Sondheim was born. Here is a song from “A little night music” #Singing #Feelgood
Send in the clowns
Just when I stopped opening doors
Finally finding the one that I wanted was yours
Making my entrance again with my usual flair
Sure of my lines
Nobody’s there
Don’t you love a farce? My fault, I fear
I thought that you’d want what I want, sorry my dear
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns
Don’t bother they’re here
Isn’t it rich? Isn’t it queer?
Losing my timing this late in my career
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns
Well, maybe next year

Nothing inspirational in the anniversaries section today. So here is a song from #Oliver This brings back memories! #singing;#feelgood
Consider yourself at home
[DODGER (spoken)]
Mind?!
Consider yourself at home
Consider youself one of the family
We’ve taken to you so strong
It’s clear we’re going to get along
Consider yourself well in
Consider yourself part of the furniture
There isn’t a lot to spare
Who cares?..What ever we’ve got, we share!
If it should chance to be
We should see
Some harder days
Empty larder days
Why grouse?
Always-a-chance we’ll meet
Somebody
To foot the bill
Then the drinks are on the house!
Consider yourself our mate
We don’t want to have no fuss,
For after some consideration, we can state
Consider yourself
One of us!
Consider yourself…
[OLIVER]

[DODGER]
Nobody tries to be lah-di-dah or uppity–
There a cup-o’-tea for all
Only it’s wise to be handy with a rolling pin
When the landlord omes to call!
[DODGER]

In 1981 Joan Jett and the Blackhearts got to No.1 with “I love rock and roll”. #Singing #Feelgood
I love rock and roll
He smiled, so I got up and asked for his name
But that don’t matter, he said, ’cause it’s all the same
He said, “Can I take you home
Where we can be alone?”
And next we were moving on, he was with me, yeah me
Next we were moving on, he was with me, yeah me
Singing, I love rock and roll
So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
I love rock and roll
So come and take your time and dance with me
Ow!
He said, “Can I take you home
Where we can be alone?”
Next we’re moving on, he was with me, yeah me
And we’ll be moving on and singing that same old song, yeah with me
Singing I love rock and roll
So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
I love rock and roll
So come and take your time and dance with me
I love rock and roll
So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
I love rock and roll
So come and take your time and dance with
