Yep. And it's really a kind of gorgeous song, but it's kind of hard to divorce from the meta, nowadays. ETA - but it's way weirder with MJ erased. (I think IIRC there's just some background singers oooh-oohing to fill up the holes instead. My friend, never having heard the real version, didn't know there was supposed to be anything else there besides Roberta Flack.)
The Crying of Natter 49
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Did Michael Jackson go all Men-in-Black on your CD too? I'm just fascinated by that.
You know, I have no idea. I actually don't remember the special very well, but I did have the album as a kid, and I knew it by heart. It had been years since I listened to it when I got the CD for (I told everyone else) Jake, but it didn't seem different to me.
I'd like to get the book, too, so I could read some of the stories to Sara, because it would be SO FUN to do Ladies First and Atalanta.
what the hell is Jeremy Irons wearing. ug-ly.

Oh, that bizarre part! Not the actual song. I have completely divorced little-cutie Michael from freaky grown up Michael in my head. My children will never need to know they are the same person.
Helen Mirran again, GORGEOUS!
Atalanta was my favorite. The song about the boy who loved his doll rocks too.

Oh, me too! Seriously, it's an amazing piece of work. And all the people Marlo Thomas got to particpate - Mel Brooks, Alan Alda, Rosey Grier, etc... And, sadly, a lot of the messages are just as timely today.
I love the one about the girl who gets eaten by the tigers.
Atalanta was my favorite.
MINE TOO! I believe msbelle has looked quizzically at me when I've gone on and on about it.
I am gonna need a fashion recap. didn;t see nearly enough. off to tvguide channel.
