From the ITV series, Paul Anka was a great guest with some really good anecdotes and showbiz stories and his singing of My Way as a special version for Parky was a great tribute. I also enjoyed Paul Anka's parody of his hit song Diana:

"I'm so old and you're so young..."!!

Good conversation should flow like fine wine amongst old friends....

Paul Anka's album "Rock Swings" is an object lesson in how to make the proverbial silk purse out of a sow's ear!! There were very few songs on it that I can stand in their original form, but he saw some potential and re-worked them brilliantly. Parky's great at finding people with an interesting tale to tell, and Mr. Anka was so interesting you wished he had longer to talk.

I agree, Rock Swings really worked I thought and particular ones on the album like "True" are done very well. Mr Anka does swing too and I hope we get another similar project!
