I was also wondering why, for this version, they add 'After I'm Gone' to the title...that like doesn't even exist in the lyrics...anyhow, maybe Harry adds it in his recodred version...I wonder if any of my elder relatives would have that album kickin around...I do see it's available for bid online

I listen to Belafonte... You'll Still Be Needing Me & Oh Linda !! Played ok here as well.

No... (After I'm Gone) jj ! But of course didn't get the entire song like RM posted. Maybe he adds (After Im Gone) in the end ?

'all for 28 seconds worth' ....ugh, where have i head that dig before:cool:

ok, when i got to to Mac it played fine...some sort of codec error when trying to open in Windows

i wasn't expecting that 'islands' dance arrangement, quite startling yet fun, imo

i suppose my surprise at the cover was mainly because i though the Songbook rarities were straight from the vaults and never thought thy might have been previously pitched...will I perhaps find a cover of say, Mama Said, out there?;)

minor observe: he sings 'making liFe a broken toy' ....based on reference to Wayne's site, i thought it was 'making liKe a broken toy' ...i kinda prefer the former, a pretty fine metaphor, imo
