JAMIE’S PLACE FOR STUFF

A Stroll Though Memory, Time and Politics With Stops Along The Way

Movies of a LIfetime – Five on Friday

I’ll be combining two themes today.  First with the movies of 1948 and a Five on Friday of the songs that came from those films.

Easter Parade starring Fred Astaire & Judy Garland:  A Couple of Swells

The Pirate starry Judy Garland and Gene Kelly – Be A Clown

The Paleface – Buttons & Bows (Oscar Winner)

 

Words and Music with virtually anyone on the MGM lot who could carry a tune and a soundtrack where it’s almost impossible to just pick one, but I’m going with “I Wish I Were In Love Again” and “Where Or When”

About Me

Retired great grandmother living in the Northwest US. Former radio Public Service Director and National Accounts Manager.

I’m a hair-dishevelled heilan’ coo,
Hamish McKay be ma name;
Welcome tae this dreichet glen
I’m cursed tae ca’ ma hame.
Depending on the mood I’m in
I’ll raise ma horns on high,
An’ if I like the look o’ ye
I’ll likely let ye by.
But should I dinnae like the look
O’ ye, then tak great care,
I’ll raise ma horns on high again,
Go on, get oot o’there!
So whether welcome yae or nae,
I’ll raise these horns sae mean,
Then ye shall ken ma meaning
By the twinkle o’ ma een.
