Nana-rama
Another birthday this weekend, and more of what we like to call "Sunday music". Many happy returns (yesterday) to house fave here at Dolores Delargo Towers (and the world's biggest-selling female solo artist!) Miss Nana ("respectable spectacles") Mouskouri!
To open this little tribute, Nana and her chums give us a little Greek dancing lesson, with the song that (with new English lyrics) became Never On A Sunday - how appropriate, some may say!
Here she is duetting with Julio Iglesias on Grande Grande Grande (better known as Dame Shirl's Never Never Never):
And finally, here Nana and Mireille Mathieu perform a beautiful version of the Spanish-Mexican standard La Paloma:
Harúmena genéthlia! [Happy birthday in Greek]
See my previous tributes to the magnificent Nana here and here.
