The Muppet Show - where every celebrity found themselves at some point in time. Jim Henson was a genius, and I was an addict. LOL
In this clip, Gonzo is feeling pretty low after Animal ruins one of his acts. He runs off the stage and into Ms. Horne’s dressing room, bangs his head on the […]

One of my favorite memories of Lena Horne on television was when she was on the 1985 episode of “The Cosby Show”, where Rudy Huxtable asked Lena if she could meet Kermit. What she was referring to was this clip from Classic Sesame Street, where Lena sang the song “It’s Not Easy Being Green” with […]

Okay, so I’m starting Bing Crosby week a day early today. (From now on, Crooner Weeks will start on Mondays.)
Bing sings “Moonlight Becomes You” in the film “Road To Morocco“, featuring Bob Hope, Dorothy Lamour, and Anthony Quinn.
One reviewer says:
“Road to Morocco, number three in the series of breezy comedies teaming Bing Crosby and Bob […]

If all things were equal with regard to their respective ages, looks, personalities, who has the best voice…Bing or Michael Buble?

From the movie “Holiday Inn” with Bing Crosby, Fred Astaire, and Virginia Dale
Lyrics (less the buh-bu-bo-bom’s and scatting)
“I’ll Capture Your Heart”
[FRED:] Here she comes, down the street
[BING:] My, oh my, ain’t she sweet?
[FRED:] Why, here comes my hot toddy
[BING:] Over my dead body
[BING:] I’ll capture her heart singing
[FRED:] Just wait until she gets a load […]

Posting this one for Brian Layman - she look stunning, and I love how she disguised her voice.
On September 29, 1957, John Daly was on vacation, so regular panelist Bennett Cerf filled in as moderator. This clip features Julie London as the mystery guest. The panelists are Dorothy Kilgallen, Ernie Kovacs, Arlene Francis, and Cesar […]

This is one of the finest examples of a female crooner I think anyone could find. Barbara Streisand, a bass, a little piano, a little cymbal, and some horns. Freaking fantastic! From “A Happening in Central Park”.
“Come on! Cry me a river! I cried a river over you!”
