Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 8, 2021 Members Share Posted May 8, 2021 A Happy Days rerun surely introduced me to that song. That song is just a genuine example of good songwriting with heartfelt lyricism and performance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 9, 2021 Members Share Posted May 9, 2021 It was probably one of the first songs I ever heard that felt like a real person singing real emotions, odd as it is to say. The whole thing has so many layers along with the slick production. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 9, 2021 Members Share Posted May 9, 2021 It's not odd to say at all, I know what you mean. It is a song that lists attributes I'd be flattered to be described as having if someone told me this in the way he does it. Since the subject is "you", it feels like he is expressing this to the listener. I love a good R&B rant, like anybody else but a song that expresses admiration and attraction for someone's finer qualities, the way this song does, will always be pleasing. Not to mention the way in which the singer gives voice to that expression, adds to the pleasure of listening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted May 11, 2021 Members Share Posted May 11, 2021 I loved St. Elsewhere. Norman consistently did a fine job and brought a great deal of integrity to a show that could, especially in its last seasons, threaten to spin totally out of control. His scenes with Jane Wyatt were a delight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members applcin Posted May 11, 2021 Members Share Posted May 11, 2021 What an amazing life Norman had. And to be working and raconteuring past 100, not to mention being married for some 75 years until his wife passed...he sure did a lot of things right, it seems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 19, 2021 Members Share Posted May 19, 2021 Mr. Mooney was a prolific comedian, so much so, that he had different eras of fans--The Hollywood Shuffle era immediately comes to mind. His humor was the definition of incisive but was blanketed in truth and you couldn't but laugh, even if things got a little uncomfortable. Artist usually do make most people uncomfortable.
