So is his daughter.

It's best not to dwell on this, Loco.

I've long had a copy of the DVD for "This is It."  I've never watched it but had it on my agenda.  So, the other night I started playing it and after about a half an hour, I realized I couldn't enjoy it because of thinking about the abuse allegations against him.

I'll never be the same.  I really don't think I can separate his art from the reality of what he did in his personal life.

It's just deeply sad - tragic.  But I can't imagine how hard it is for Paris.  Hopefully, people feel empathy for her.  She doesn't deserve the hell she's going through.

Well, it's another type of Blue Moon tonight; the third of four full moons to occur in a single season...

That sounds like it could be my personal theme song.  ha2ha

I adore The Marcels' version; it's a family favorite.

Kathleen, Lorenz Hart's original lyrics to Richard Roger's melody went like this...


Prayer (Oh Lord, make me a movie star)

https://youtu.be/kvEocQhMh1o
1934



Lorenz Hart rewrote the lyrics for Manhattan Melodrama twice, finally settling on The Bad in Every Man. 

The song was well-liked and Hart was persuaded to rewrite the lyrics one more time so the song could be released on recording.  The result was Blue Moon...

A wise choice for the team's signature song, Kev.  It's so very well-liked.

Even Bob Dylan likes it...

I guess he only trips over the word “whisper” when blue cushions are involved.  ;) So which one aired on the show, Barry? I like the first one best.

I like the first one best too, Kelley.  I would regularly watch his show as I liked looking at The Golddiggers...

But I can't remember which one made it to air.  I know that a DVD came out a few years ago with full broadcasts and outtakes.  I'd say the first version was an outtake.

I just liked seeing Dean slide down the pole.   ;D

I vividly remember this show where he played the harmonica while it was still in his pocket...

He was filming The Sons of Katie Elder at the time...

I don't know why they were called the Ding A Ling Sisters, they just were.  They were a little too mature for my taste at the time.  I wish I could find the show where The Golddiggers sand and danced to Gimme Dat Ding...
