You know, with a radically different arrangement, maybe a tempo change, I could just imagine Hayley singing that. It's actually not too bad. Of course, there are probably some very different opinions here, but who knows. Until we get a track list w/audio samples (or a very thorough press release), we won't know. The word "Hushabye" might not even be in any of the song titles (as with all of Hayley's other albums). -Taylor i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Martin said that, too, but as I told him, Paradiso is in the title of 2 songs on Paradiso... Cinema Paradiso! Then, of course, there is the word Winter in the song Winter's Dream, although it has an apostrophe S added to it. Then there's River of Dreams, but maybe that's not technically an album. Yet it was nominated for a CBA, so it has to count. I listened to the version by the Mystics when somebody posted it. It was okay, but I'm not interested in the Beach Boys' version. They are not my favorite sound at all, their falsetto kind of annoys me. If Hayley sings it, I'll listen to hers, of course. But I'm voting for the Hushabye Mountain song, or an original by Hayley. I'm not saying that they got Hayley on the NOB tour based on a song on her new album, because she's naturally a good candidate for that sort of thing. That's the sort of the genre she's in, and she's performed and recorded broadway hits many times before. But, if there is in fact a broadway song on her album, her management could have seen that as another way to promote her album a little. But who knows, she probably would have been in it either way. But it certainly wouldn't hurt if she was able to perform something off her latest album on the tour.

I think she might do IDAD and OTR on the tour (somebody is doing them), and it wouldn't surprise me if they were on the album too.

Of course there is no guarantee that "Hushabye Mountain" will be on the album. For all we know, Hay;ey could have written a song called "Hushabye". Martin D Maybe, but... isn't the song from a broadway play? And she's going on a broadway tour? Something else to ponder. Libby, HB is from the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and was a popular song from the musical in the early 2000s. That movie never was one of my favorites...

Okay, let's not have an album of new recordings of previously-recorded songs. I doubt we could expect more than one like that on any one album. If there are any, I'd vote for IDAD. Obviously I know nothing about CCBB. I guess I just assumed it had been a play, too. Whatever. I know very little about old movies or broadway plays. Martin, what do you not want her to sing in Manchester?

Obviously I know nothing about CCBB. I guess I just assumed it had been a play, too. Whatever. I know very little about old movies or broadway plays. Martin, what do you not want her to sing in Manchester? CCBB is a marvellous old film about a vintage open-topped car with a mind of its own, that turned out to be a magical car. The title is loosely based on the odd little chuffing noiseS it made when starting up and moving off. Children are some of its main characters and many children (and ex-children!) love it to this day. My grand children certainly did, when they watched it not too long ago. I guess it's a Mary Poppins kind of film and from the same era, over 40 years old. Hushabye Mountain is one of its most well known songs (among those of us who are no longer spring chickens!). Libby and Taylor, the song Martin D is concerned about (and rightly so!) is "You'll Never Walk Alone" from the 1940s musical Carousel, which has been a hit record by several singers, including a no. 1 by Gerry and the Pacemakers in the 1960s. They are from Liverpool like The Beatles, and the fans of Liverpool Football Club adopted the song as their club anthem, and it still is that to this very day. We wouldn't want Hayley singing that in Manchester because the fans of Liverpool and Manchester United football clubs have been deadly rivals for many decades, and with many United fans among the audience, that song would probably be unwelcome there! All very silly of course, but that's the reason. Cheers, Dave

Martin, what do you not want her to sing in Manchester? You'll Never Walk Alone. She'd probably get lynched. They take their football seriously up there! Martin D
