All Far Too Quiet on the Western Front

The essential difference between the rulers and the ruled is that the former get to swan off to banquets hosted by the hottie Dutch queen where they make grand plans for places even more distant and unpronounceable, while the latter can't help noticing that their own towns and countries are a lot crapper than they were twenty years ago...

Many happy returns of the day to the great Don Black, a legend. The first two tracks from Matt Monro set the standard for these songs – wonderful.

Steyn's Song of the Week

Soliloquy

Happy Father's Day to you and yours. We have some Father's Day moments from The Mark Steyn Show here, and we close out the day with a song for those about to qualify for the category. I miss my dad more and more as the years go by. This Song for the Season is one he used to like singing - mostly the "My boy Bill" bit, because it all gets a little more complicated after that. It's more than a song, but a dramatic soliloquy on imminent fatherhood. This essay is adapted from my book A Song for the Season...
