This, and 'Summertime' from Porgy and Bess are beginning to drive me even further round the twist.
<tries to remember 'silence songs: gets 'Sounds of Silence', 'Silent Knight';'Il Silencio': 'Silence is golden'; then realises that all of them are loud powerful songs.

Comic strip was 'The Perishers' I now remember, where the crabs made the great leap sideways.
It's lonesome away from your kindred and all
by the campfire at night where the wild dingoes howl
But there's nothing so morbid, lonesome and drear

Tell Laura i need her,
tell laura not to cry
mylove for her will never die.......
