Social distancing & group singing is challenging, but this video shows the hard won results. Congrats to Washington Revels for this nice take on a climate change theme. Greetings to everyone.
Helen! So great to see you in this! It's brilliant! This is the best parody of this song since Chanticleer's "Now is the Cold of Winter", which they did on A Prairie Home Companion many decades ago. Thanks for including the lyrics, my friends and I will want to learn this.
Now is the Month of Maying - coronavirus version Now is the month of maying, yet home alone we’re staying Fa la la… Now is the month of maying, yet home alone we’re staying Fa la la… While we’re in quarantine, no dancing on the green Fa la la… While we’re in quarantine, no dancing on the green Fa la la… Our may pole stands neglected, so we’re not all infected Fa la la… Our may pole stands neglected, so we’re not all infected Fa la la… It’s hard to share a flask, when you must wear a mask Fa la la… It’s hard to share a flask, when you must wear a mask Fa la la… Avoiding the infection, with Internet connections Fa la la… Avoiding the infection, with Internet connections Fa la la… Together all we sing, to celebrate the spring Fa la la… And as we sing this song, we all have no pants on Fa la la…
This was a superior show! And I'm proud of my nephew Danny Pushkin who played the Lord Chamberlain - don't see him here, too bad since it was a great costume. Excellently led by Greg Lewis. Best holiday show in town!
