Watching Listen and Singalong: Part 31 (I think): "Heathcliff" December 30, 2009

You know on the same day I get my piano accordion my brother arrives to visit with his new ukelele which was a Christmas present from his wonderful wife. Here, we can all enjoy the pleasant strum of the ukelele as well as singing along. Shout it out – “Heathcliff”. There’s not much better than […]
