"Angel of the Morning"/"Queen of Hearts"

Sometimes the way things happen can be a bit spooky methinks! Graham www.ipernity.com/home/351757 uploaded a superb entry to 'Soundtrack to Life' with two links to “Queen of Hearts”. One by Dave Edmunds and one by Juice Newton. By coincidence, just prior to this I had also uploaded this link to “Queen of Hearts” and “Angel of the Morning” by Juice Newton. Once uploaded I changed my mind in so far as I decided I wanted to firstly have a link to “Walking by Myself” by Jimmy Rogers. So, I made my upload private :-)

Also, when I was thinking about doing the Juice Newton upload I was wondering around our local market and came across the 1981 album “Juice” on vinyl. The guy was asking £3 so, of course, I bought it immediately :-) Coincidences can indeed be spooky :-)

So, I'll stop rabbiting and release my Juice Newton upload to the world :-)

I've had to return to 'PhotoFunia' for help here :-)

The playing cards are courtesy of 'PhotoFunia'. The photo is mine. Vicki was posing for photos at 'Focus On Imaging' at the Birmingham NEC way back in 2011 :-)

Vicki is clearly an 'Angel' and 'Queen of Hearts' :-)

We, therefore, have two tracks for the price of one :-) “Angel of the Morning” was written by Chip Taylor and “Queen of Hearts” was written by Hank DeVito.

~ Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-)))

*****This was done using PhotoFunia*****

From Wikipedia -
"“Diamonds & Rust" is a song written and performed by Joan Baez. It was written in November 1974 and released in 1975. In the song, Joan recounts an out-of-the-blue phone call from an old lover, which sends her a decade back in time, to a "crummy” hotel in Greenwich Village; she recalls giving him a pair of cuff-links, and summarizes that memories bring "diamonds and rust." Joan has stated that the lyrics refer to her relationship with Bob Dylan."

Here we go again re my all-time fave songs :-) I have so many all-time fave songs that it might appear that everything ever written is one of my all-time faves :-) But, in my humble opinion songs don't come much better than “Diamonds & Rust” :-)

I have, so far, failed to create a suitable photo but after being introduced to 'PhotoFunia' by Karen (k.e.s_kloset) I think I have come up with a novel solution. Well, that is my logic here and I am sticking to it :-) So, “Diamonds are Forever” and “Rust Never Sleeps” becomes “Diamonds & Rust” :-))

I didn't think there could possibly be a better version than the original. However, I have been totally blown away by a live version by 'Blackmore's Night' where Candice Night takes the lead vocal. This version sends shivers up and down my spine :-)
