If you enjoy Steyn's Song of the Week at SteynOnline and on Serenade Radio, please note that there will be a live stage edition during the 2026 Mark Steyn Cruise - along with many other favourite features from SteynOnline and The Mark Steyn Show. More details here.
~If you missed Mark's Song of the Week last Sunday on Serenade Radio, here's a chance to hear it at SteynOnline. The composer Philip Springer is five months away from his hundredth birthday. In this episode, he joins Steyn to discuss his second most-recorded song - we'll hear the first at the top of the show, because it's that time of year. But Mark has always preferred the runner-up, and Phil gladly acknowledges the debt he owes tune-wise to Georges Bizet - and a rare musical intervention from his lyricist.
