December 10, 200816 yr I cant stand swing music so doesnt matter who would release it id hate ,i hav eneve rbeen a huge robbie fan but i bought his greatest hits and excapology album and i like many songs of both for me i prefer take thats style of music especially song like patience and the fantastic rule the world I have no objection to certain swing songs but they have to be in the right setting and with the right singer. The setting being a dead smoky club with a fifty-odd year old bloke, cigarette in one hand and scotch on the rocks in the other! Norma
December 10, 200816 yr I love swing. Loved Robbie in the Albert Hall. I even bought the DVD :wub: And I am not really a Robbie fan...
December 10, 200816 yr Author Thank you for replies. I don't sing well and have a limited vocal range. I only sing for my fiance, but my best hope of carrying a song is to write my own and swing seems to fit my voice best. It's a new direction I'm going in. But I do write other forms too. Really the songs write themselves. I don't know where it comes from.

Really the songs write themselves. I don't know where it comes from. What about a nice bit of Country and Western! Honestly ... there are one or two good songs in that genre (a few years back I wouldn't believed I'd have said that). Dean Martin even did a couple of good C&W songs. Norma

December 12, 200816 yr some counmtyry and westerns can be ok but i wouldnt be buying much of it for instance i love kenny rodgers songs the gambler I actually like quite a few country artists ... Dolly Parton and Shania Twain spring immediately to mind at the moment. I used to know loads of them from the 70's but didn't like them at the time - the tragedy of having a dad who hogged the 'stereogram'. Norma
