MUSIC AND LYRICS

I finally got to watch Music and Lyrics yesterday. It was such a cute story although I couldn't help but feel that Hugh Grant is getting on in years (don't get mad at me, Jane, I know you love him =D). Anyway, I enjoyed watching the movie. Hugh's gyrations and hip movements there were hilarious, not to mention Cora Corman's (played by Haley Bennet) eccentricity and not-so-innocent dance moves. I think this girl should be given more movie roles. She is such a breath of fresh air and her acting was simple and exact.

Anyway, Drew Barrymore has always been one of my favorite actresses (loved her in E.T. and Firestarter because she was soooo cute!), and I think romantic comedies suit her very well. But I still loved her with Adam Sandler in 50 First Dates. They are so great together. Kinda reminds me of Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.

Anyway, I really did enjoy watching this flick yesterday. It was nice being curled up in bed with a blanket, enjoying the cold weather and sipping a cup of coffee while I'm transported to the world of movies. Not bad, aye?

And while we're at it, this is from the soundtrack of the movie. I already posted Way Back into Love here once before so I'm picking another song. This just makes me feel so sad...

DANCE WITH ME TONIGHT

Hugh Grant

*

It’s been so long

Since I’ve known right from wrong

Got no job, sometimes I just sit down and sob

Wondering if anything will go right

Or will you dance with me tonight

When the sun departs

I feel a hole down in my heart

Put on some shoes

Come down here and listen to the blues

Wondering if anything will go right

Or will you dance with me tonight

I’m looking at you

You’re looking at me

We’re the only two off the dance floor

Do you see what I see

Two broken lives working in harmony

Might make for a decent time

So get up and dance with me

I know that it seems that the grass will grow

Better on the other side of the barb wire fence

But that other side is not in sight

So I’m fine with what I have now

If you’ll dance with me tonight

What’s the point of life

If risk is just a board game

You roll the dice

But you’re just hoping that the rules change

What’s the point if you can’t bring yourself to say

Things you wanna say like

Dance with me tonight
