Quizzes and Games

Wonderful clip from 'Frozen' still not seen it though. I wonder if we'll still be singing the song in 40 or 50 years like the classic Disney songs eg King of the Swingers, Bibbidy bobbity boo, Whistle While You Work etc.

UNITED WE STAND....Brotherhood of Man

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-o4e2geCXek

Hi Liz :-)

I love that song BUT
I'm very confused!!!! The Brotherhood of Man that I know, is not this group!!!

I was in school with Nicky Stevens (the brunette) in the foursome that won the Eurovision Song Contest with Save All Your Kisses For Me. Her real name was Helen Thomas, and she was born in Carmarthen, where we went to Secondary School. She was a Prefect when I was in Form 1.

She appeared on Opportunity Knocks before joining the band.

I actually like this band singing United We Stand.

(the) VERY THOUGHT OF YOU .... ROD STEWART

AHA- SOLVED

C&P from Wikipedia-
Brotherhood of Man were formed by record producer/composer Tony Hiller in 1969, and originally featured his co-writer John Goodison with Tony Burrows, Roger Greenaway, Sue Glover and Sunny Leslie...

...Keen to keep the established name alive, Hiller set about putting a new line up together. In 1973 he got together a trio of session singers, Martin Lee, Nicky Stevens and Lee Sheriden.... another female vocalist was added to the line up, Sandra Stevens (no relation to Nicky)
