YESTERDAY, ONCE MORE ✨️🎢

 

Earlier today, FB Memories reminded me, that two of my favourite JJ shows of all, happened on this day, in different years.😊

The St. Xavier's College Special - JJ # 97 in 2020 and The Ben Fernandez and Warren Mendonsa show from NZ and Goa - JJ # 194 in 2021.

Actually, every 'Jukebox Jammies' session by Carlton Braganza, used to be so enjoyable, that I have many 'Favourite Shows', over a span of 4 years, that I look back on fondly. But, there are a few, that come to mind almost instantly, whenever I think of which ones, were my 'All-Time Favourites'.✨️❤️

Apart from those two, I loved JJ # 180 as well, when Carlton sang many, many 'Sad Songs' in one session; and without a doubt, JJ # 124 with Grace Maureen, remains 'One of the most memorable sessions'...and yes, 'Just Duets' - JJ # 193 with another favourite, Chrystal Farrell, is another session, that I really loved. Also, 'A Night at the Opera', JJ # 178, with Natalie Di Luccio, was truly out of this world.😊

Am sharing these six JJ sessions here today, so I can find them quickly in one place, whenever I want to listen to them again. Those who haven't heard these before, will enjoy them too.

ST. XAVIER'S COLLEGE SPECIAL - JJ # 97 ✨️🎢

(11th July ' 2020)

For anyone who has been a Xavierite, this JJ Session would automatically be very close to their hearts, for so many reasons. It had some of our Jesuit Priests, our Professors, many famous ex-Xavierites sharing their Memories, and lots and lots of absolute Nostalgia.πŸ’•


BEN FERNANDEZ AND WARREN MENDONSA - JJ # 194 ✨️🎢

(11th July ' 2021)

This show happened during the worst couple of weeks for me, in July 2021. I remember that I was so, so sick that day, and in terrible pain. Didn't know what was happening to me. Was actually affected by the Covid virus, but didn't know it yet.πŸ˜’ In the middle of that terrible time, listening to this session, made me so happy.❤️❤️❤️


SAD SONGS SPECIAL - JJ # 180 ✨️🎢

(25th May '2021)

Sometimes, it's just nice to sit together in the company of a good friend and cry. This is what this JJ session was like, to many of us who were listening, on that night in 2021.


AMAZING GRACE - JJ # 124 ✨️🎢

(30th August ' 2020)

A kind of Finale JJ Session, after which 'Jukebox Jammies', sadly didn't happen as regularly or as frequently, as it did before. We all heard Grace Maureen sing for the first time on that day, and without exception, everyone loved her voice.πŸ€—❤️



'JUST DUETS' WITH CHRYSTAL FARRELL - JJ # 193 ✨️🎢

(9th July ' 2021)

Among all the wonderful artists that Carlton sang with, I really liked Chrystal Farrell a lot. So, the few times when she sang on JJ, were my favourite sessions. I really loved the other session that Carlton did with Chrystal too; but am sharing the one, that they did together from Goa here, in which they sang so many memorable 'Duets'.πŸ’•



'A NIGHT AT THE OPERA' WITH NATALIE DI LUCCIO - JJ # 178 ✨️🎢

(23rd May ' 2021)

I started off writing this post, with the intention of posting just my Favourite two JJ sessions, that happened on this day. But then, when I thought of my favourite JJ sessions, there were some that just had to be on my list. This JJ session with Natalie Di Luccio, has to be included here, because even though she was singing from Canada, and Carlton from Bangalore, they did some amazing 'Long-Distance Online Duets', on this show.❤️


...and there are many, many more shows that I loved, but I think I'll stop at the six 'Best' ones, according to me.😁

Now that the JJ sessions hardly ever happen, it's nice to re-live the 'Happy and Unforgettable Memories', which make 'Yesterday Come Alive, Once More'.✨️🎢
