Friday Night

So we were watching this very unmemorable biopic -- De-Lovely, the life of Cole Porter, with Kevin Kline and Ashley Judd as Cole and Linda Porter. And in one musical sequence, there's this very handsome, open-faced young man, smiling and full of life, singing Night and Day in rehearsals with Cole. And I'm looking through the IMDB entry, and ...

... it's John Barrowman. *g*

Damn, he was good.

This. He was mildly goofy as the young actor, but then he really started to sing and his voice opened up and he just ... came alive. He can really sing.

My first reaction to hearing him sing was to quote a comic strip and only half-joke: "That voice! 'Tis like the angels!"

I've got a bunch of his songs on my computer - would you like me to upload any of them?

Hold that thought. Maybe over the weekend. *g*

Is it still snowing?

Yes! I need to go outside and literally roll in it like a dog.
