I guess I just don't read the right threads. I haven't the foggiest idea what you're talking about. George

Yoo-hoo! Ra-af! George

I'm GLAD I don't know this song! George

I'm rubber, and you're glue. Whatever you say bounces of me and sticks to you!! Riddle me this, Caped Crusaders: George

Ummm,,, "The Bassoon"? No, wait... "The Harpsichord"? Warmer... "The Piano"! George

Yes, Sudo, That was a fine song. I always enjoyed that part where the orchestra swells and she sings "Around the cathedral, the saints and apostles..." and we get a big overhead view of the cathedral with the statues of the saints around the top. Another favorite song of mine from the movie was a "spoonful of sugar" reprise in a minor key that Bert (as the chimneysweep) sings to Mr. Banks. I think it's the key point in the movie when Mr. Banks realizes that all the things he thought were important were really insignificant next to his children. It always brings a tear to my eye. And Kathy, if the picture you were thinking of is the one I have in mind, it's actually in the "Spoonful of Sugar" song where she whistles the melody with a bird in harmony. Last point: how many of the songs were really sung by Julie Andrews, and how many were dubbed by Marne Nixon? George

Jewel, Are all the lines from the same song? George P.S. Sometimes I hit the tab key and it posts before I want to. If you want to remove a post, click the little eraser icon to edit the post.

Kristofferson? I thought it was Sam Shepard! Best wishes, George

Yeah. I really liked the bass vocal: Don't you know that she's Just my style Everything about her Drives me wild Don't you know that she's Fine...so fine. Jewel got the song right, but one is supposed to give the performer as well. Technically, Pirate is the winner, though if you wish to cede your turn to Jewel, I don't think anyone would mind! ;)--> George

I said "superfluous," not "supercallifragilisticexpialidocious"! That brings up fond memories, though. I think I saw "Mary Poppins" a dozen times. I had SUCH a crush on Julie Andrews! :o--> George

I believe that Sharon is abdicating, so I'll continue my usurpation of the thread with a little more of the song. Maybe it's the clothes she wears, or the way she does her hair That makes me want to tell her that I care. George

It (Pirate's movie) was "Get Shorty" of course. But, let's play WordWolf's clue. (A line I don't recognize, incidentally.)

Enough with the Chip 'n Dale, already! Tom did get the movie first (though Raf read it "correctly"). George

Actually, we DID do this before. I remember getting it then, so I'll let someone else play this time. George

Taking WW's post as a confirmation, let's move on to this one (a famous movie, remade at least once, but you'll have to run the clues together and say them fast to get it): George

(Deleted becuase Kathy deleted her post, which makes this superfluous.) :)--> George

It's a stretch, but I think it's (wax) OFF, sounds like OF. George

I kept thinking "Independence Day" with Bush being "dense"; but it finally hit me: "In the Heat of the (duh) Night" WW, I appreciate your holding back (and giving the "heat" clue). This time, I will wait for confirmation. I think I've got a toughie for you all. George

Sharon may be under the weather, or something; but I'd like to move this along. When she gets back, she can resume her song thread. In the meantime, try this: Maybe it's the clothes she wears, or the way she does her hair. George

"The Perfect Storm"? :D--> George

Interesting! I just deleted my first post becuse it got sent before I completed my thought, and Rascal came up almost verbatim with what I was going to say! It IS scary! George

All of this was horrible, but this one REALLY caught my eye: I can't believe that the kids believe this AND IT DOESN'T SCARE THE HELL OUT OF THEM! We weeded out others so we can scrutinize YOU even more closely! To quote Asok (from "Dilbert"), HOLY MOTHER OF TOMATOES!! George

Hmmm. LESS familiar, now. :D--> George

I guess that means it's your turn, Raf. (Of course, you may be shoring up against "Katrina" at this time!) George

As long as it turns north somewhere between the Bahamas and Texas... George
