TOMMY SHELBY — PEAKY BLINDERS S03E02

Music that fits Alastor pt 1

I'm trying to edit Al with songs from his time, that also fit him as a character in some way. Here is one of them...

Mr. Radio Man 1924

Al Jolson (with Isham Jones & His Orch.)

Little broken hearted Sammy

Sitting on his Daddy's knee

Listening to the radio

But his heart is breaking so

Seems the angels took his Mammy

Any wonder why he cries

When his Daddy fell asleep

Little Sammy boy would creep

To the radio and cry...

Mr. Radio Man

Tell my Mammy to come back home

Won't you do what you can

`Cos I'm so lonely

I've been listening here every day

Since she went away

But no word from Heaven's been heard

Can't the angels hear me pray

When the sandman is nigh

And to slumberland I must go

I know she hears me sigh

Over my radio

When the reason I'm crying

And sighing, I'm all alone

Mr. Radio Man

Tell my mammy to come back home

Mr. Radio Man

Tell my Mammy, my Mammy to come back home

Won't you do won't you do what you can

Oooh! I'm so lonely

I've been listening in every day

Ever since she went away

But not a word from Heaven have I heard

Can't the angels hear me pray

When the sandman is nigh

And to slumberland I must go

I know she must hear me sigh

Over my radio

Oh, and the reason I'm, I'm sighing

And I'm crying, I'm so alone

Mr. Radio Man, please

Please tell my Mammy to come back home

I love old music and in me trying to find music specifically for a character, I found so much music and downloaded it from Internet Archive that I'll need to delete something soon...

Hopefully, I'll edit the thing (also planing to animate this)
