"Well some day I guess
I'll find myself another little girl
To take the place of my true love
But as long as I live I know
I'll hear her singing in the sighing of the wind
Blowin' in the tree tops way above me."

A couple of years ago I went to show which featured a Swedish singer/songwriter (singing in Swedish only), so far so good. Somewhere in the middle if his set he popped a question to the audience “tell me which song you want me to perform next”.

A (really) drunk elderly woman in the audience immediately responds “Johnny remember me”, an answer that for sure caught the artist on stage with his guard down to say the least.

You should have been there to experience but to this day it is one of funniest live show moments I have encountered.

John Leyton – Johnny remember me is found on the single “Johnny remember me” released in 1961.
