Griffin says:

"That was Take My Breath Away by Berlin"!

Is he right? He's waiting for his treat.....

Sadly, that song reminds me of Tom Cruise :( ...which then reminds me of South Park :D , which is all well removed from the lovely Ms Nunn...

Aitch,

The middle name, dating (I was born in '63) and my country and western allusion should help.. if you feel so inclined!

Griffin howls whenever I put on any C&W, so it gets short shrift round here....

Her name will drive you crazy Aitch once you see it in print. She's a household staple on the must play list with "older" blokes in North America. Thanks for the age shot Evan, I am definitely in the older bracket and I do like both kinds of music too. :lol:

KD Lang did a few covers of her work. Quite spectacularly IMO. Ms. Hensley got regular play in our house while I was growing up. She had a voice that could make you fall to pieces. 8)
