    Morning Frank…ahhhhh, right out of my era, The Platters! Soft, and sensitive, and nicely done. A morning that begins with a tune from you is a good morning, so if I encounter an ad it wouldn’t bother me one bit. 👍

    I love The Platters! They were going to perform in my city many years ago (of course not with the original lineup anymore) and the show was cancelled. I was going to take my mom - who introduced me to them in my childhood - and I was devastated. Great song, Frank! Much love from Brazil.

    I love your soft approach to, well, every song I've heard you cover. I'd like to hope that I'm not alone in saying that I'd have to hear you belt one out sometime so we could hear that lovely baritone voice sail! Wonderful cover and don't sell yourself short, you've got a wonderful voice and guitar skills good Sir! 💙🙏🏼

      @@FrankWatkinson no worries, it's a joke at the expense of the u.s. government. Nina Jankowotz was our almost head of the disinformation governance board and posted her rendition of that Mary Poppins song. Figured if I'm going to be on RUclips might as well tell them what a joke they are. Love your music frank, I can't sing so no worries.
