I just checked. They did not perform this song on Friday's episode. Not sure why I thought they performed this one as well on Friday. It was just one group song and Anita's solo. However, we have heard today's song before on the show. 

Ahh gotcha, thanks for checking for me

Notes:

• Whoever was in charge of curating the images for the slideshow and putting them together deserves a raise. That was really emotional for me, and I loved seeing real-life images! It was such a beautiful, touching tribute.
• I hope these slow, dramatic fades into commercials are not permanent. I do not like them.
•  

Same for me.  It was excellently done. 

As far as the fade outs are concerned, that seemed to be huge complaint around here that there weren't any.

The whole reunion, from Friday to today, really got me in my immediate feels.

I know; for me, it's very old-school, and I have appreciated that they have not made it a main staple with this soap, and hope they do not moving forward.

I like the Martin conversations where he acknowledges the parallels --  that it took many years for Anita to make amends regarding Barbara, and to attain forgiveness, but it happened eventually -- and that it might take a long while for Smitty to understand. 

Not saying whether it should (or shouldn't) take a long while for a Smitty/Martin reconciliation.  Just appreciating the in-depth reflections and emotions.

Oh wow the Danielle Paige dialogue at the start of the reception is really great.  Fast with lots of great quips and references, without being too trendy.  Really wonderful and real.

Smitty/Anita conversation is great too

I cant stand Smitty. Like why did you even show up just to lave 2 minutes later? Its like he wanted to twist a dagger in Martin's chest. He could have stayed home instead

Might be time to bring in a Congressional colleague that can be a source of support for Martin and give Smitty a run for his money.

Interesting idea, and I like it. Although I will always hope Martin and Smitty eventually reunite permanently, Now that they've separated, why not keep them apart for a while and allow a few issues to threaten their possibility of getting back together?  Some of us have complained there is no true romantic plot on BTG, so a lengthy Martin/Smitty separation might be just what we need to give them "Julie/Doug", Alice/Steve", or "Cliff/Nina" status.  Tortured romance is the best type of romance for daytime.  And that type of romance will really get the viewers rooting for their reconciliation.  As long as Martin/Smitty are eventually end-game, I don't care how long it takes.  But in the mean time give us some juicy longing looks and some tears, and maybe even an interloper or two.

Ted watching the Entertainment Tonight Articulettes report on his laptop. This was well-done and seamless!

She know damn well no one is paying to watch Latavia and Farrah go on tour

LMAOOOO

To be fair to Sharon and Tracy neither one of them are on the Magic and Makeup level. Anita had to try to get them some more checks after all they've been through with the group.

Are they gonna tour with Hologram Anita, like Tupac at Coachella?

Today (August 4) part of the concert up is up on the CBS youtube channel.  The introduction to the Barbara tribute (but not Andre's video) and the crowd chanting Barbara,  and the song "big girls don't cry, we say bye bye bye".
