We sing the WWI era song “It’s a Long Way to Tipperary” when the card we need to play in Spite & Malice has a long way to go!

This group won BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT 6-ish years ago. I/we used this as one of the songs in my dad's (1934-2022) slideshow for his Celebration of Life.

Sirius/XM's 40s Junction (Channel 71) plays a lot of WWII songs -- big bands, Andrews Sisters, old Sinatra, etc.
