Faithfull Facts #24
The phrase 'Callooh! Callay!' from Marianne Faithfull's new song "Sparrows Will Sing" is a reference to the poem "Jabberwocky" written by Lewis Carroll that appears in the sequel of "Alice In Wonderland" published 1871. It's a nonsense poem, but the phrase is an exclamation of joy. Marianne recorded "Jabberwocky" for her first album "Come My Way" in 1965.
