Done.

[speedy]

We both lose in this deal. I'll throw in my Nicolette Larson cut-out bin album that doesn't even have "Lotta Love."

< irritating falsetto >

I'm all outta love, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right, believing for so long.
I'm all outta love, what am I without you
It can't be too late to say that I was so wrooong...

< /irritating falsetto >

[Interesting Times]

No, no... a deal's a deal.

...and that legendary ode to puttin' a pinch 'tween yer cheek an' gum...

I Got Chew, Babe.

[speedy]

Half-breed -- that's all I ever heard -- Half-breed -- how I learned to hate that word

[speedy]

Has this immortal opening been posted yet -- "Maybe I hang around here a little more than I should -- we both know I've got somewhere else to go..."

[Interesting Times]

You don't have to answer, I can see it in your eyes.

Omigod. 500 posts, and we forgot Brand New Key.

I think it was out of self-protection.

When I saw the title, I figured it was referring to the song by Michael Jackson, "You are not alone." When he says "baby" in the last stanza, is he referring to a LITERAL baby, or "his woman"?



Another day has gone, I'm still all alone
How could this be? You're not here with me
You never said good-bye, someone tell me why
Did you have to go, and leave my world so cold?

1-Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away?
Something whispers in my ear and says

2-That you are not alone
I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

3-You are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
You are not alone

All alone, why, oh...

Just the other night, I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come, and hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers, your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand, then forever can begin
(rpt 1, 2, 3)

Oh...whisper three words and I'll come runnin'
Fly...and girl you know that I'll be there
I'll be there
(rpt 2, 3, 2, 3)

Not alone
You are not alone, you are not alone...

You just reach for me baby
In the morning in the evening
You're not alone, not alone
You and me, not alone, oh, together, together...

And do you recall "Yoooooouu left me, just when I needed you most"

Unfortunately, yes. :-)

[speedy]

But it's coming from my heart and not my head..." All together now -- "I lo-uv you -- I honestly love you"

Speaking of Perry Como, how about "What did Dela-ware, boys, what did Dela-ware?"

Boy...talk about dating one's self...

[Ben Chad]

People...People who need people... (gag)

[Interesting Times]

All together now -- "I lo-uv you -- I honestly love you"

Uh... some things are maybe better left unsaid.

[speedy]

It's impossible -- ask a baby not to cry it's just impossible

[bootless]

Hah! I see that, and raise you "Heaven on the Seventh Floor" AND "Undercover Angel."

[speedy]

Just quoting Olivia -- didn't want to get physical, physical.

[renosathug]

Well, did you know she wore a brand-New Jersey?

:-p
