*Three composers of musicals are featured on the front cover of Musical Spice 2. Two are performing, one is very small. What are their names?
*Charlie's Getting Married at Last.
In my last newsletter in March I inadvertently misled you... DSP writer Dennis Watkins did not write the lyrics to Charlie's Getting Married at Last released in 1981. What he did do in fact was mime the lyrics on the video clip and composed the the song on the B side of the record. oops.
Anyway....I received two entrees to the competition to update the lyrics to make it more appropriate to Prince Charles wedding mark 2.
Hi there!!!
I love getting your updates and loved the challenge of Charlie's lyrics - so here's my version (well, 3 of them!):
*******************
Charlie's getting married once more
To the dog that showed up at his door
He's not too bright - love at first sight?
And Her Majesty has fainted on the floor.
Charlie's getting married this year
With a grin that goes from ear to ear
He says it's true - he always knew
He'd marry a girl with a large rear.
Charlie's getting married again
From a young chick to an old hen
The time has come - he's had his fun
Poor Charles is getting married again!

It might give you a laugh at least!
Cheers!

Here's a quick stab
Charlie's getting Married once again
To an old flame, a real Plain Jane.
The Queen is quite unhappy. The Duke's an unhappy chappy.
Coz Charlie's Getting Married once again.
Years and Years they've sweated for this day
The only thing to do now is to pray
Coz Charlie's getting married once again.
