    Description: LET’S GO TO THE MOVIES AGAIN
    Movies and music have been a natural combination ever since sound was first added to moving images. Whether a film is a tear-jerking drama, an action-packed thriller or a side-splitting comedy, the right song at the right moment will always elevated the impact of a scene. Beyond that, many songs written or recorded for films have stood on their own with the popularity of some eclipsing the movies that inspired them.
    Who can forget the Vangelis music "CHARIOTS OF FIRE" in the music of the same name or Celine Dion's soundtrack "MY HEART WILL GO ON" in Titanic, then of course there's Whitney Houston's "BODY GUARD" - all legendary musical tracks and all evoke strong emotional reactions!!

    Following the enthusiastic response we've had to our previous Movie sessions, we have compiled another fabulous list of movie songs over the years so please join us and:

    LET'S GO TO THE MOVIES AGAIN.

    Dress to impress if that's your bent but please bring along your instruments and enthusiasm.
    The Songs will be projected up on the screen.
    The Song List and updated song book are attached.
    If you'd like to nominate some songs you'd be happy to lead, please email Kathy De Garis,, our MC for the session:

    We need lots of leaders up on the mics so please don't be bashful. Look to your inner Ewan McGregor, or Bette Midler, practise a few songs of choice and have a go. There'll be plenty of support but we encourage you all to participate in the fun.
