How Deep Is My Love

My love is
  as deep as the ocean

Yet the ocean is 
  not as deep as my love

Hi Gershon, The Gibb brothers were born on our little island and up until his death Robin had a house here. They recorded a very beautiful song called 'Ellan Vannin' which is all about the Isle of Man:-) hugs jan xx

Hi, again! I've just listened to 'Ellan Vannin.' It has a trace of the "Moody Blues" influence in it, I thought. At any rate, it's a touching tribute certainly. Thanks again for pointing me to it. Ciao, Gershon

Amazing. Who would have 'thunk' it? I always thought they were from England itself, just like all the rest of those other groups who were popular in America during the great "British invasion" (musically) of the 1960's. I'll definitely have to listen to 'Ellan Vannin.' So sweet of you to share this with me. You, Jan, are a true-blue PS friend, forever (I hope). Thanks again! :) gw

I think this is a brain twister, and my dendrites are arguing now, so thanks for the read.

Gosh. You've struck a chord with those bee gees, Jan! Hadn't crossed my mind at all,...and already I can't get the tune out of my head either! Weren't they awesome? I believe they started recorded in 1967 and hung it up in 2001. Incredible longevity in an industrity known for brevity, eh? :) Smiles everyone!! :) Gershon

Maureen, I think that this is the first time I've ever been called a 'romantic' in my brief fling on this mortal coil...Not that I mind...Perhaps I'll just call myself 'Romeo' now. Thanks a million for your visit! ~ Romeo
