Today’s flashback are:

You Can Call Me Al-Paul Simon

I just love Paul Simon…and the added addition of Chevy Chase in this video just gives it so much more!

“You Can Call Me Al”

A man walks down the street,
He says, Why am I soft in the middle now?
Why am I soft in the middle?
The rest of my life is so hard!
I need a photo-opportunity,
I want a shot at redemption!
Don’t want to end up a cartoon,
In a cartoon graveyard …..

Bonedigger, Bonedigger,
Dogs in the moonlight.
Far away, my well-lit door.
Mr. Beerbelly, Beerbelly,
Get these mutts away from me!
You know, I don’t find this stuff amusing anymore ….

If you’ll be my bodyguard,
I can be your long lost pal!
I can call you Betty,
And Betty, when you call me,
You can call me Al!

A man walks down the street,
He says, Why am I short of attention?
Got a short little span of attention,
And whoa, my nights are so long!
Where’s my wife and family?
What if I die here?
Who’ll be my role-model?
Now that my role-model is ….
Gone …… gone,
He ducked back down the alley,
With some roly-poly, little bat-faced girl.
All along …. along ….
There were incidents and accidents,
There were hints and allegations …..

If you’ll be my bodyguard,
I can be your long lost pal!
I can call you Betty,
And Betty, when you call me,
You can call me Al!
Call me Al ……

A man walks down the street,
It’s a street in a strange world.
Maybe it’s the Third World.
Maybe it’s his first time around.
He doesn’t speak the language,
He holds no currency.
He is a foreign man,
He is surrounded by the sound, sound ….
Cattle in the marketplace.
Scatterlings and orphanages.
He looks around, around …..
He sees angels in the architecture,
Spinning in infinity,
He says, Amen! and Hallelujah!

If you’ll be my bodyguard,
I can be your long lost pal!
I can call you Betty,
And Betty, when you call me,
You can call me Al!
You can call me Al ……

Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now-Starship

From the movie:

I can’t explain how much I <3 this movie….I’m a sucker for chick flicks!

I remember watching this growing up along with Dirty Dancing, Ghost, and Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

“Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now”-Starship

Looking in your eyes I see a paradise
This world that I found is too good to be true.
Standing here beside you
Want so much to give you
This love in my heart that I’m feeling for you.
Let em say we’re crazy
I don’t care about that
Put your hand in my hand
Baby
Don’t ever look back.
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby we can make it if we’re heart to heart.
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing’s gonna stop us now.
And if this world runs out of lovers
We’ll still have each other.
Nothing’s gonna stop us.
Nothing’s gonna stop us now.
I’m so glad I found you
I’m not gonna lose you
Whatever it takes I will stay here with you.
Take it to the good times
See it through the bad times
Whatever it takes is what I’m gonna do.
Let them say we’re crazy
What do they know?
Put your arms around me
Baby don’t ever let go.
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby we can make it if we’re heart to heart.
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing’s gonna stop us now.
And if this world runs out of lovers,
We’ll still have each other.
Nothing’s gonna stop us.
Nothing’s gonna stop us …

Ooh
All that I need is you
all that I ever need.
And all that I want to do …
Is hold you forever
Ever and ever!

And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing’s gonna stop us now.
And if this world runs out of lovers,
We’ll still have each other.
Nothing’s gonna stop us.
Nothing’s gonna stop us.
. . .
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing’s gonna stop us now.
And if this world runs out of lovers,
We’ll still have each other.
Nothing’s gonna stop us.

. . .
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing’s gonna stop us now.
And if this world runs out of lovers,
We’ll still have each other.
Nothing’s gonna stop us.
Nothing’s gonna stop us…
