Covid Island Discs

Day 3: Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits

OK so yesterday I tried to demonstrate that my musical tastes have just about made it into the 21st century. Alas now I have done that I shall return to the 80s. In year 11 we were asked to write about two songs we liked in an English lesson. The first song I chose was Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits, the second one you shall find out tomorrow. The two songs I chose were based on clever lyrics. This song has the line “and all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme” which I think was a pretty neat line. Enjoy!

My Video Summary

If you click on the Playlist Video for Week 1 (top right of this page) you will be taken to a single video which allows you to play each song in this week's list one after the other. Alternatively, if you watch my own video summary below of this week's songs at the end of the video two playlist links will appear. The one on the left hand side will take you to the video playlist for this week while the one on the right will take you to a single video playlist that allows you to play the complete Covid Island Discs collection for all the currently completed weeks so far — well over 200 songs and counting!
