Here's a documentary on Harry Nilsson, if anybody is interested

 

 

Thank you so much for sharing this! I just watched this. 2 hours seemed a bit long but it passed so quickly! Very interesting to know about Harry Nilsson like this. 

I kind of felt lucky that I was happened to know about him through Mika. 

Now I can imagine more clearly how much Mika got excited when he listened to Harry Nilsson's CD in the car, and find out more about his songs and influenced by him automatically. :)

Although it keeps saying 57 minutes on the main BBC page, the actual radio schedule (and radio pages in newspapers) show a 2 hour programme.  Let's hope it's the latter :pray: .

 

 

57 minutes isn't nearly long enough! as soon as i saw 57 minutes i wondered how'd he'd have time to talk to all those people, DJ songs and talk about them, have other people play songs, etc, and got a bit scared he won't have time to perform any covers

Same thought... hopefully the right length of the show is the one showed by the radio schedule  :crossed:
