Judy Garland and Fred Astaire singing "Easter Parade" from the 1948 film of the same name:



Andrew Lloyd Weber and Tim Rice musical Jesus Christ Superstar:



And for my father's side of the family:

That was nice...It's refreshing to see that at last you wrote a post that makes a bit of sense.
I'm Shocked!... SHOCKED!, I tells ya!

That officially changes my mood for today.

How I love Cavalaria Rusticana. Thanks. And of course, Easter Parade with Astair and Garland - had also posted the JCSS, which of course I enjoy. The Seder I hadn't seen but thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the part about the parsley. I'm probably the only person in the world who has never cared for South Park but it helps to round it out.

I'm trying to recall when I've ever read a post here that didn't make sense. Guess my memory is going down the tubes. ; )
