I'm presently listening to that retro/big band song from 'Xanadu'
You know... the one with the clarinet guy the old folks might remember as Gene Kelly, in a duet with *the* Olivia Newton John. First person to serenade me with a few lines of the song wins my undying love and affection forever, in the form of a picture of a statue of a squirrel.

Go!

1. Did I hear someone say "Gene Kelly"?




:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:



GENE KELLY:

No other face could take you off my mind
You're so refined

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN (Or, ME)

You're much too kind
I have to warn you I'm never gonna set you free
'Cause I was born to love you for eternity


GENE KELLY and OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:

Whenever you're away from me
Wherever you go
You're never far away from me
I want you to know
I only have to close my eyes dear
And suddenly I'm where you are
You better never stray
'Cos I'll never be far away

GENE KELLY:

On every breeze I seem to hear your name
My heart's aflame


OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:

I feel the same
I'd fall apart dear
If you let the feelin' end
Don't break a heart dear
Nobody else could mend

GENE KELLY and OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:

Whenever you're away from me
Wherever you go
You're never far away from me
I want you to know
I only have to close my eyes dear
And suddenly I'm where you are
You better never stray
'Cos I'll never be far away



=sigh=

4. Hey man, where's my squirrel?





Dude, seriously. Do NOT mess with me when it comes to Gene Kelly. Capisce?


Especially when you just referred to me as one of the "old folks."
