Well,it's the 1st of December 2012 and time to wish all my friends and subscribers all the very best for the festive season and also to wish you all a very happy 2013. A real rollercoaster year for me starting with the early part being in hospital or at home with visiting nurses getting better after a diabetic coma. Hopefully the drugs I am on are now controlling that and I can spend this Christmas out of hospital!! My apologies that my video uploads have died away-it is difficult doing anything new with Abba now (for obvious reasons) and also my eye sight was slightly affected by the diabetes which means it is no longer wise to spend to much time in front of a screen. Many of you know I have a second channel (roydoncrossing1) and this did have some Abba stuff on it and many of you had kindly subscribed....ALL of the Abba stuff on there is now on this channel and that channel is now only used to bulk upload videos relating to the BTV channel for featuring on the fan page for that channel so please feel free to unsubscribe to avoid being bombarded with videos you may not be interested in,
Lyrics: Can you hear the drums fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar
They were closer now fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid fernando
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, fernando
Now we're old and grey fernando
And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums fernando?
Do you still recall the frightful night we crossed the rio grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, fernando
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, fernando...
