Just got an email at work saying this sad news and cannot work anymore.

Doris Martin, was it the UK DVD you purchased ? If ever a new edition of Midnight Lace on DVD could be issued, would it be too much to hope that a French audiotrack would be included ? I know this audiotrack exists and is very good (far from true of all Doris films) for having seen the movie on the ...

Thanks Mike, Very good idea to combine Cinderella and Doris. Cinderella looks like Doris, don't you think ? When I was a boy I was going to see those old Disney's for Christmas with my grand mother and I loved the songs... the way they were sung at that time, because today they have changed them. I ...

Just watched the clip (just type "french and saunders hollywood" in the youtube search menu) and totally agree with you Jas : very funny and not offensive at all. I love this kind of humour anglais .

Two days ago there was a very great movie on French television: Orson Welles' Touch of Evil. Very impressive. Isn't it the kind of film noir that our webmaster likes, and that could figure on his site dedicated to classic movies ? Touch of Evil has a very special story related to the way Orson Welle...

It's interesting to compare the new version of "heaven tonight" on BBC2 and the not remastered version previously posted on here in 2008 by Mikey and still on line : http://www.dorisday.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=2550 http://www.box.net/shared/zs91mbejtr5cyaiirqjr It looks like they have somewha...

Thanks A LOT for the link joy_boy. It's extraordinary to listen to a new Doris song today after all these years. It's really a wonderful gift for all of us her fans. And it's all Doris. If only she knew the joy she gives us with this new release ; for it's a burst of life, a cry of joy, an affirmati...

Yes I'm listening to Frednet right now and they play one of those beautiful songs from the "André Previn" album.

Carmel is 8 hours ahead from London and 9 hours ahead from Paris, so when it is 10pm in London it is 2pm in Carmel.

Hey you all lucky guys who are in Carmel, how is the weather over there ? Here it's been raining all day long.
Have a good time.

If I'm lucky...
Haven't seen the movie and would like to. But love the song.
Howard, how do you like the version by Melody Gardot, recorded in 2010 ?

Thanks Suzie. :) Staying with DD's early B&W film dramas, here's "Young Man With a Horn": Very good banner. Makes me think of the true story of the wonderful cornet player that inspired this movie: Bix Beiderbecke . He was of german origin as Doris, and also a very gifted musician. I agree with JMi...

Ain't seen the ad but love the song : http://www.box.net/shared/r53fziu8fe
(Version from 'My Dream Is Yours', 1949)

This banner is - to me - one of the most beautiful ever.

Jas, Howard, Mikey, Doris, Peter, Hana, I join my best wishes to yours for 2011 to all Doris Day fans.
May the number of forum friends all over the world be multiplied in 2011, allowing a growing number to discover all the good she gives.

I would like to share with you that song by Vera Lynn that haunts me : it's a lovely day tomorrow (1940). This very simple melody composed by Irving Berlin has an incredible power to hearten and fortify, just like so many Doris songs do. It starts on a waltz tempo and ends on a swing rythm and I wis...

Hi Mike !
Listening to frednetradio right now.
Love Doris' voice

Your erudition is really amazing !

Just purchased the above CD from amazon. It's quite good. All classics from MGM films mostly played by the famous MGM studio orchestra. The bossa nova from The Glass Bottom Boat was composed and conducted by Frank DeVol for the movie. If you would like to listen to it it's there http://www.box.net/s...

Dorine it's a must see ! This movie is a total delight. It's on the Warner DVD collection #2, one of my first purchases. It's the atmosphere of the late 40s, the magic of the old time cruise and of Latin America, superb music with the Page Cavanaugh Trio, and a sparkling Doris...

This banner is awesome ! The colour is bright
It's all Doris !

Just listening to tonights show right now (with great pleasure...). But what happened ? The sound quality is a lot better as usual ! (It was not that good before, what I was putting down to poor internet connexion). Did Frednet change anything in the broadcast method ?

Isn't this what you're looking for :

I too have downloaded the show and am very happy to listen. I missed most of it when it was originally played on april 3rd because it was Easter vigil and I was going to church. And also my internet connexion is not that good and there were interruptions. So many thanks to Mike and Keith. Pedro.

Marion, your birthday tribute video is superb, you're very talented. Your avatar is also a treat. I wish I were able to do such things

All right Puck ! I've just had a look in your photo album : it's beautiful !
