Tonight you will hear Adelaide Hall singing a new song-' Envious '.
The lyric of this has been written by A. D. River , which is the apt pseudonym of John Hart , who has been a driver with the BBC for five years. Hart wrote all the finales for Ernest Longstaffe 's ' Follow the Flag' series, and has found an enthusiast in John Rorke , who has included several of, his numbers in the ' Unusually Yours ' programmes. The music of ' Envious ' has been written by Frederick Chappelle , who has also collaborated with Hart on a new number ' No Coupons for Kisses ', which will be sung by John Rorke in his next ' Unusually Yours ' programme.
