Re:Pat

The sweatiest time was waiting for USA to join, we were all mighty glad when they did.

 I think it would have been touch and go.

I've got a disc of Vera Lynn's songs - she's an amazing lady! And I heard Dog say to Cat: "Okay, you can outclimb me! But can you outrun me???"

Yeah, one of our cats loves to wake us up each morning with a cold nose! Startling! And a 'pop' song that will still be listened to in ten times decades, huh? I'm gonna say "Whip It" by Devo! Remember: no one gets along . . . until they whip it!

I, too, wonder how many songs will hold up a 100 years from now...Things are never ull when cats and dogs are together.

A sentimental song that spoke the heart of the nation, of hope and optimism

No wonder it has lasted!  Reminds me of another wistful war-song that was loved on both sides: LILY MARLENE sung by Marlene Dietrich.

I'd bet on one of the Beatles' songs standing the tests of time and popular fickleness.

I remember Vera Lynn (didn't hit on her name until you mentioned it)

and I remember the words to the song. "There'll be blue skies over, the white cliffs of Dover, tomorrow, just you wait and see."  It was a sentimental song that came out during the war years, when all the grownups were praying for the war to end, and for the Allies to win. It wasn't a given then.
