I'm really impressed!<br />Today's Christmas Day, Will! A day to celebrate Peace and Understanding. So I'll just do as if I hadn't read I an supposed to do this or that «immediately»... That won't ever happen. It's too late for anyone to order me what to do... I'm really far too old for that, dear Will! After all, this is just a song, a simple pretext to think of friends and family. Nothing else. I'd rather you wouldn't repeat that tone with me.<br />I wish you a GREAT Christmas Day from the bottom of my heart!RIChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13504864950306777236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31125887.post-19982545860778914632006-12-25T19:35:00.000+00:002006-12-25T19:35:00.000+00:00Just watched it, and have a double DVD (one is beh...Just watched it, and have a double DVD (one is behinds the scenes info and interviews).<br />Here is an official addendum for your blog from Professor Grape (one of my personas that you have not met until today).<br /><br />Did you know that there are *three* sets of lyrics he wrote?<br /><br /><b>Original Set:</b> Very dark. Fits the movie scene, and the war time story that you tell, but Judy thought people would think her a monster if she sang them to a little girl as she does in the film. Singers are starting to go back to this lyric. James Taylor, for example, did this version on a cd a couple of years ago.<br /><br /><b>Set Two:</b> This is what Judy sings in the movie. Sweetened up, and yet still melancholic at the same time as the anticipated good times are still not here today but put off into the future. This is the preferred set by people who like music<br /><br /><b>Set Three:</b> A sugary sweet “no sadness is allowed” version written years later on the request of that arrogant ass Frank Sinatra. This is the one you most often hear sung these days. These lyrics are an abomination and should be banned for eternity as it turns this sensitive number into a cheesy Las Vegas cocktail lounge number. P.U. Unfortunately these are the lyrics you are showing for this blog. You must remove them immediately as they absolutely are unconnected to the story you tell, and are NOT what Judy sings.<br /><br /><b>Original Version:</b><br />Have yourself a merry little Christmas<br />It may be your last<br />Next year we may all be living in the past<br />Have yourself a merry little Christmas<br />Pop that champagne cork<br />Next year we may all be living in New York.<br />No good time like the olden days<br />Happy golden days of yore<br />Faithful friends who were dear to us<br />Will be near to us no more.<br />But at least we’ll all be together<br />If the Lord allows<br />From now on we’ll have to muddle through somehow<br />So have yourself a merry little Christmas now. <br /><br /><b>Judy Version:</b><br />Have yourself a merry little Christmas<br />Let your heart be light<br />Next year all our troubles will be out of sight.<br />Have yourself a merry little Christmas<br />Make the yuletide gay<br />Next year all our troubles will be far away.<br />Once again, as in the olden days<br />Happy golden days of yore<br />Faithful friends who were dear to us<br />Will be near to us once more.<br />Someday soon we’ll all be together<br />If the fates allows<br />Until then, we’ll have to muddle through somehow<br />So have yourself a merry little Christmas now.T-Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14921295474454883903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31125887.post-58996666390167051092006-12-25T13:41:00.000+00:002006-12-25T13:41:00.000+00:00Avant même d'ouvrir cette page de commentaires, je...Avant même d'ouvrir cette page de commentaires, je savais déjà que le premier serait ton commentaire à toi!
