Ok.
Oklahoma!, Singin' in the Rain,
what's the difference.
The lyrics are indeed from the latter: [link]
I could not find "Good morning, good muffin" on Google. Yahoo brought it up on an insomnia support group: [link]
I feel old now. I think it played when I was in high school, and maybe college.
"Good morning, good morning, it's great to stay up late" is from
Singin('/g) in the Rain.
"Oh What a Beautiful Morning" is
Oklahoma!
Completely different words and different music and not really the same point, but other than that, the songs are just the same.
"Oh What a Beautiful Morning" is Oklahoma!
And you have not truly lived until you have rented the RSC version and seen Hugh Jackman sing it, IJS.
Here's a snippet from my favorite Walt Whitman poem ("A Woman Waits for Me"):
...Without shame the man I like knows and avows the deliciousness of his sex,
Without shame the woman I like knows and avows hers.
Now I will dismiss myself from impassive women,
I will go stay with her who waits for me, and with those women that are warm-blooded and sufficient for me,
I see that they understand me and do not deny me,
I see that they are worthy of me, I will be robust husband of those women.
They are not one jot less than I am,
They are tann'd in the face by shining suns and blowing winds,
Their flesh has the old divine suppleness and strength,
They know how to swim, row, ride, wrestle, shoot, run, strike, retreat, advance, resist, defend themselves,
They are ultimate in their own right -- they are calm, clear, well-posses'd of themselves.
I draw you close to me, you women,
I cannot let you go, I would do you good.
Nice. Whitman is the best.
Rand must've loved him. Not that that makes me not love him.
Hey, all. Popping in to say hi. I've been computer-free this week -- only 1 and half day of temp work, and grindingly dull work at that, and no Net.
Sadness.
Grief!
A shower of tears like rain!
Or something. Anyhoo, just wanted to pop in really quick and look around. Anything exciting happen?
Hi Erin!
Nothing exciting has happened to me, and if I tried to recount otehr people's excitement I would surely forget to mention the most important things, so I will let someone else sum up.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art has a Whitman Sampler Collection. The things I learn from google.
