You said no strings could secure you, at the station...
His adult shows are good fun too Spaghetti Bolognese would be my favourite song of his. And weird fact for the night, he and my parents sang folk music at a coffee house around 1970-ish

He was my favourite, my mum took me to his concert at QPAC when I was about 7. I've introduced him to Dd 4 years. Which carols is this? What state are you in?

I don't remember him from when I was a kid, but DD (3) has been singing and dancing to "Wash your face with orange juice" at her kindy dance class on and off all year and her class also "performed" it at her daycare christmas concert last week. She loves it!
