Every week, Peter will select one choral piece that listeners will sing along with in the Choral Hour. It will be a “Last Night of the Proms” kind of piece – something that is known, and that people will enjoy singing along to.
JULIE ANDREWS: My Favourite Things, from Sound of Music – 9 May 2021
The lyrics for this week can be found below:
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favourite things
Cream coloured ponies and crisp apple strudels
Door bells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favourite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favourite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember my favourite things
And then I don’t feel so bad
