Did this one get mentioned?  "When that man is dead and gone"
Heard on YouTube by The Radio Stars with Two Guitars (Al Bowlly & Jimmy
Mesene).  It was Bowlly's last recording, made on 1941-apr-02.

Elsewhere during this thread, "T" mentioned
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.  My father, who
is Welsh, likes to pronounce this as a party trick.  He says it's just a
silly name chosen for the tourist value.  They used to hang a banner with
the name at the train station so people could have their picture taken.  He
says they took the name down during winter to avoid having to repaint it.
