It's a good song, sure, but is it worth bumping a three year old thread to post it?
The women of New Vegas ask me a lot if there's a Mrs. New Vegas. Well, of course there is! You're her. And you're still just as perfect as the day we met.

Not necessary. If you hadn't already chimed in on the subject, better late than never.
 You love this signature.

There's no rule saying you CAN'T bump year-old threads around here.  "If you think a 401K is your mother-in-law's bra size, you might be a redneck."

Okay! Thanks, Vaporman.
Frankie Avalon's "Beauty School Dropout" is another favorite song of mine. I love that they got a genuine '50s teen idol to appear in the movie. |

Probably my favorite song from the movie is...
The choreography was done just right. "If you think a 401K is your mother-in-law's bra size, you might be a redneck."

Talk about ending a movie in style.

It still surprises me when people discount John Travolta as a singer.
Here's John from 1976 on "The Captain and Tennille Show" with his hit song: |

I didn't come to enjoy "Grease" until I was an adult. I had bad memories of my 9th grade year, spent at a special education school where the other students had challenges more severe than my Asperger's Syndrome (as it was called in the late 90s). In the gym class, the "Grease" Megamix that was popular in the late 90s was played every day. Physical education was my worst subject out of the many with which I did poorly, and hearing the Megamix while I struggled every day turned me off from the movie until I was an adult and was able to distance myself from that era.
I'm also friends with Susan Buckner, who played Patty Simcox, on Facebook, and I'm hoping to do an interview with her. I'm also hoping to land an interview with Didi "Frenchy" Conn as well. |
