nothing wrong with some soviet music - The Red Army Choir Alexandrov - Kalinka - YouTube

Here's the best version of Kalinka -

"Kalinka" - Yevgeny Belyaev & the Alexandrov Red Army Choir (1965)

The Melody of the Seekers "The Carnival is Over" is based on a Russian Folk Song even.

I'm not going to sully this tribute thread further MR by continuing this discussion here... sorry.

Suffice to say that if a certain unrestrained contributor was not here, we wouldnt be having this discussion.

Please feel free to PM me, happy to explain further.

Have sent you a PM.

[Andrew Walker]

Personally I think it’s pretty weak attacking someone then saying pm me and I will explain whilst blaming another for their actions But perhaps I’m being harsh as my 1st thought was somehow the attacking post was directed at the wrong person.

The thngs I’ve learnt or have really had rammed home to me this week after what has happened and a story I’ve read on here from another poster. It’s family close friends loved ones husbands wives girlfriends boyfriends your kids and grand kids that are the be all and end all in life. People on here take this place way to seriously at times myself included. None of this on this on here means much. For me what’s important is right here at home.

I could carry on a little further here but in light of todays event I think it is best I am restrained and I leave it at that.

[QUOTE=mightyrooster; I'm sorry? What have I done? I was one of the first people on this thread to tell Paddo to not come in here with negative comments about musical legends that have just passed away and instead try and say something nice. What political comments have I twisted? What have I done? Am I being attacked?

Dear MR, As I advised some time ago, don't sweat the little things. You have done nothing but disturb, in some nebulous way, the King of Kancel Kulture (the KKK). Your posts are gentle and thoughtful and if I were you I wouldn't bother responding to what is, in essence, bullying.

Once again you do not disappoint. Bullying is exactly what it was PC and yes MR is one of the nicest most warm and genuine posters on here. I also wish to assure you that you are still in my top 8 of posters A top 8 that I have yet to finalise.

No one's been attacked Cyclone, you don't wanna see that. Feel free to quote, name me directly instead of the sermon on the mount...won't bite ya.

And I wish I cared for your opinion, but alas...

[Paddo Colt 61]

Hilarious! Look who's talking about naming people directly. Don't do as I do, do as I say. Self serving piffle.

[zac]

ah the chookpen ...

paddo's used to everyone disagreeing with him so he doesn't bother with tact but not sure why jfc had a go at poor old mighty rooster. fwiw, i think judith durham had a nice face and a pleasant voice and the seekers songs evoke the 60s in the same way that the ad jingles of the era do

Oh dear o dear Jackie boy. Thinking before you type would be a good idea. I’d mentioned my 1st thought at the offending post was it may have been directed to someone else and not MR.

Do carry on with your mud slinging and bullying Jackie boy I note you cared enough to respond.

Like I said none of this really means shit to me it’s family husbands wives boyfriend girlfriends kids and grand kids that are the be all and end all to me.
But having heard all about you through another poster I don’t expect you to quite understand that as they did tell me amongst a lot of other things, that apart from the 1st thing you have nothing else of what I’ve mentioned and I think this is what has really upset you and as such I forgive you

Could the ones in this thread please I am begging you to stop bickering. Two of you in particular have been guests in my home over the years and have seen photos of my late parents. I started this thread as Judith was the first singer I remember recognising as a very small child as Mum & Dad would play the Seekers for me. I'm not putting up with another week of this..too much pain and too much sadness last week..either make up and be kind to one another or implement the ignore function..and listen to this lovely song instead..and that's an order from me...
