"Wings of a Dove" is WONDERFUL. I think I have a 78 of it. (For the kids here, those younger than 50, that's a 76 RPM recorded disk from Ancient Days. They were not vinyl, so don't even start with that "vinyl" thing. Even the first Beatles record wasn't vinyl. (Meet the Beatles on the Capitol label was, but Introducing the Beatles on VeeJay wasn't.)
OH! Where was I?
Mary Hopkins, a Paul McCartney protege from the 60's:

the only way to fly is on the wings of love,
