Don't get on much at all now - just pop in to help out where I can.....

It's originally an organ piece by Saint Seans -Symphony No.3 written in 1886, but is more commonly recognised as "If I had Words" sung by Scott Fitzgerald and Yvonne Keeley in 1977......

Original classical arrangement......click on "extracts"

cheers T.C i knew i had heard it wonder who / why they choose it ? YouTube - Scott Fitzgerald & Yvonne Keeley - If I Had Words thanks again

They probably chose it for the title.
" If I had words" What words could discribe a wonderful holiday?
The idea is that a holiday with Thompsons would leave you speechless hence the title sonf "If i had words"
