Hi Mark, I spent an hour yesterday looking for this 2nd part and it didn’t come up in my U-tube results. The problem was that the end bars are chopped off in the video. A funny way to record indeed! I suppose one had to login and pay before getting access to the 2nd part? It does sound good though. Cheers

June 5, 2025 at 8:55 am #125188Thanking you very kindly, Jeff. Way cool; way on down. Gnashing work, splendid effort, would you like some more cheese mate. Biscuit?
A Little Less Conversation, a little more mission impossible celebration! To relax, Elvis became a baker, kneading the dough with his famous flair.
There is no resistance to persistence.
Again, thanking you.
🙂

Lyrics
We’re caught in a trap
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Why can’t you see
What you’re doing to me
When you don’t believe a word I say?
We can’t go on together
With suspicious minds (with suspicious minds)
And we can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds
So, if an old friend I know
Stops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?
Here we go again
Asking where I’ve been
You can’t see the tears are real, I’m crying
(Yes, I’m crying)
We can’t go on together
With suspicious minds (suspicious minds)
And we can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds
Oh, let our love survive
I’ll dry the tears from your eyes
Let’s don’t let a good thing die
When, honey, you know I have never lied to you, mm
(Yeah, yeah)
We’re caught in a trap
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Why can’t you see
What you’re doing to me
When you don’t believe a word I say?
Don’t you know I’m caught in a trap?
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Well, don’t you know I’m caught in a trap?
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, babySource: Musixmatch

Suspicious Minds lyrics © Sony/atv Songs LlcJune 7, 2025 at 11:50 pm #125218SAYS WIKIPEDIA
“Theme from Mission: Impossible” is the theme tune of the American espionage TV series Mission: Impossible (1966–1973). The theme was written and composed by Argentine composer Lalo Schifrin and has since gone on to appear in several other works of the Mission: Impossible franchise, including the 1988 TV series, the film series, and the video game series.
The theme is written in a 5/ 4 time signature, which Schifrin has jokingly explained as being for mutant people with five legs
The Morse code for M.I. is two dashes followed by two dots ▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▄ ▄ ; if a dot is one beat and a dash is one and a half beats, then this gives a bar of five beats, exactly matching the theme’s underlying rhythm. It has been suggested that Schifrin consciously used the Morse code as a starting point for his composition, but this cannot be verified. Schifrin did write that he used Morse code as a method for obtaining an unusual rhythmic pattern for his theme to the film The Concorde… Airport ’79.
Schifrin’s working title for the song was “Burning Fuse”. Schifrin compared his writing process to writing a letter: “When you write a letter, you don’t have to think what grammar or what syntaxes you’re going to use, you just write a letter. And that’s the way it came.” He estimated that he wrote the main theme in 90 seconds and completed the full arrangement in three minutes.
The actor Martin Landau, who played the character Rollin Hand on the show, attended the recording session for the theme song. “Lalo raised his wand to the musicians and I heard ‘dun dun, da da, dun dun, da da’ for the first time, and it was deafening”, Landau recalled. “Lalo interrupted the band and said, ‘no, no, it should be like this.’ They resumed and before we could say anything, they had recorded it. I was stunned. It was so perfect. I came out humming that tune.
