Dana, Fairytale, Arrows Show

Dana Rosemary Scallon (born Rosemary Brown on 30 August 1951) is better known simply as Dana, an Irish singer and former politician. Her career began when, as an A-level student, she won the 1970 Eurovision Song Contest with the Lindsay/Smith penned "All Kinds of Everything", a subsequent worldwide million-seller. Over thirty singles and thirty albums later, Dana's career continues, now also as a leading songwriter and performer of Catholic music like "The Rosary" album, another worldwide million-seller. The singer became a popular pantomime princess her portrayal of Snow White was so successful it lasted fourteen years, including an extended season in the West End of London. Her talent for charming the children was recognised when she was chosen to star in three Children's Royal Variety Shows. She ran in the Irish presidential election of 1997 and surprised everyone with her performance. Basing her campaign on the Irish Constitution, Dana Rosemary Scallon (Independent), an early-priced 100/1 outsider, finished third with double the votes of the one-time-favourite Labour Party candidate. Within two years this surprising newcomer to politics had become an MEP Connaught-Ulster's first female member of the European Parliament. This single made #13 in the UK charts in 1976. "Fairytale" - lyrics: It's morning And we've slept the night away It happened Now we can't turn back the hands of time Yes we've stolen this moment We've forgot about one simple fact We both belong to someone else As we slept the night away chorus As we lay We forgot about tomorrow as we lay As we lay Didn't think about the price we had to pay It's morning And now it's time for us to say good-bye (good-bye) (Good-bye, baby) you're leaving me I know you gotta hurry home and face your wife I would never never wanna hurt her (never, baby) She would never ever ever understand You belong to me for just one night As we slept the night away chorus We should of captured all of our thoughts But instead we got lost In the second In the minute In the hour (in the hour, baby) ---
