--such phrasing -- who does that kind of phrasing now? No one.
That's because most people don't know how to sing a song, anymore. It's all riffs and runs. People find it impossible to just sing notes and interpret a tune. When was the last time you actually heard someone just sing a song, and not put in 5 or 6 notes, where one ought to be? Sad, really.
And enjoy the beauty - all the joy and beauty - that a Merry Christmas can bring to you!

Posted: 12/19/05 at 2:24pmLately it's got to be Here Comes Santa Claus. But I really love the stage coach song at the begging of the film Calamity Jane. Probably for the line "Whip crack away, whip crack away!". LOL

Cheese - you make me smile very broadly - and I refuse to believe that your use of the word 'begging' instead of 'beginning' was an entirely innocent slip!

I never saw the boy before
So nothing could be sillier
At closer range his face was strange
But his manner was familiar
" ...the happiness in the tune convinces me that I'm not afraid."

So I talked to my Ma like a good girl should
And Ma talked to Pa like I knew she would
And they all agreed on a married life for me
The guy is my guy where ever he may be...
" ...the happiness in the tune convinces me that I'm not afraid."

"Everybody Loves A Lover"
It was her last chart hit, reaching number 6 in 1958.
Who's the most popular personality
I can't help thinkin' it's no one else but me
Gee I feel just about ten feet tall
Havin' a ball
Guess you might call me a Pollyanna

A Burt Bacharach song, Send Me No Flowers...
Ever since the day that you went away
You've been sending Flowers to me......
I wish someone could cull her musical vault, supposedly full of unreleased gems. She covered a Bruce Johnston song called - Let's Visit Heaven Tonight, and it's apparently quite brilliant. With Terry Melcher gone, I doubt it will ever see light of day, at least not in my lifetime...
Life is...just a bowl of cherries...

My favorite: "Please, please, don't eat the daisies. Don't eat the daisies, please."
Now I won't be able to get it out of my head the whole day.

Posted: 10/23/06 at 11:59amI love the title song for Move Over Darling.
"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter
