            You're cruel Beefy it would be easier to pick top 500 but then I'd find another that just had to be included! So here are 5 that will always be close to the top of my list
            1 Every Time we say goodbye Ella Fitzgerald
            2 Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau Catherine Jenkins
            3 Ave Maria Lesly Garrett
            4 Stranger on the shore Acker Bilk
            5 My life flows on Aled Jones
            so will these
            Take 5 Dave Brubeck
            Nessum Dorma Pavarotti
            Wonderful World Louis Armstrong
            My Way Frank Sinatra

            and so on
            It's not the growing old I mind but the growing stupid with it!

                          And Joe Cocker's 'You are so beautiful' is much better.

                          The James Blunt was played at a friend's funeral last year, can't listen to it but never liked it anyway.

                                Good version but original by Sting better!
