2. I watched that the other day!

My husband gave me a set of Cole Porter shows on DVD long ago. It is one of my favorites. I am a total sucker for Cole Porter tunes.

15. I once sang for Cole Porter.

I was 11 and my music teacher chose me to sing for this old man who walked with a cane in the 4th grade class of miss Mae Packard, a schoolmate of Cole. I wish I could remember what I sang.

3. Probably my favorite musical.

Cole Porter tunes, Bob Fosse in a bit part, and that dancing.

[MuseRider]

4. Yes yes yes!

It could not be more perfect .

The dancing, awww I will have to run the show later today, I will be humming tunes until I do.

5. "So In Love" is my favorite Cole Porter song, without question. (nt)

[MuseRider]

7. Same!!

There are certainly some I am not fond of but that one gives me goosebumps every time! It is just sublime.

I always watch De-Lovely when it is on if only for the music and John Barrowman. I love Johns voice. He sings Night and Day in it. Ahhhh.

For many years I did not really listen to his songs until I had to play a "Pops" concert with a large dose of Cole Porter tunes. After the first rehearsal I realized I had never really listened to him much or seriously anyway. I have loved his songs ever since. Exception....Be A Clown. I can never get it out of my mind...oops. RATS!

6. DEFINITELY my favorite, and

Howard Keel's voice gets me EVERY TIME!

[MuseRider]

8. It is just about a perfect movie!

I say just about because there are so many I could say that about. The old "whatever you are watching" deal in a certain category anyway.

I hope you are enjoying it.

Thank you for posting this. On another day I would be right there watching or at least listening to it. Also thank you for posting so much that is on, I have caught quite a few movies because of your posts.

13. I'm having a bit of deja vu, ellen...didn't we just talk about this movie and I told you how I love

the way Cole Porter rhymes "sanka" and Bianca?

"I'd give up drinking coffee for Sanka,
even Sanka, Bianca, for you."

[elleng]

14. Yes! and I watch it whenever I can!

Brush up your Shakespeare!
