"Seems to me I've seen that stocking someplace...but where could it have been? Don't you belong to a Miss Magnolia Hawks? I thought so. Next time you see her will you give her a message for me? I can talk to you better than I can talk to her..."

This was always my favorite part of Showboat. I found this love story very compelling the summer I turned 13. I wonder if that wasn't one of the first times I got some real enjoyment out of mush. Or maybe I just think I did. I guess I do seem to remember finding "You Are Love" a bit tedious. After a while I started appreciated it, quite a pretty song. Then again though, as I play it now, I have these phantom shivers remembering the way they used to run up and down my spine, so maybe I was into it heh. *shiver* Ok, maybe I'm STILL into it. I don't like the guy on the recording's voice. Never did. The guy from my sister's production was much better.

Hum hum hum. I haven't listened to this in years. For a while we used to sleep to it every night esp right after the show ended.

"Good-bye, My Lady Love" was my other favorite. I can't say I agree with the idea of her keeping this guy on the heater while she's off with her stray heart, but it's a very entertaining song and performance...

I have cicado nostalgia too, but I'm not sure where it comes from. It's obviously not tied to anything.

Yeah...I'm out. Have a nice night.
