The movie XANADU (in real time)...

...on Vicodin- remastered, widescreen DVD. The colors so vivid, so beautiful... so FUNNY! giggle

Drew said "so this is what it's like to live in a video game." (He's never seen this- *we started watchin TRON, but that didn't last)

What are some "old" movies you like to watch on DVD?

I watch "kid's" movies.

I drive my husband nuts because I've watched dozens of movies dozens of times and will pick a movie I've seen a dozen times over one I've never seen.




Needed to add a "d" edit...

I'm alive

And the world shines for me today

I'm alive

Suddenly I am here today

Seems like forever (and a day),

Thought I could never (feel this way)

Is this really me?

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

And the dawn breaks across the sky

I'm alive

And the sun rises up so high

Lost in another world (far away)

Never another word (till today)

But what can I say?

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

Suddenly came the dawn (from the night),

Suddenly I was born (into light)

How can it be real?

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

And the world shines for me today

I'm alive

Suddenly I am here today

Seems like forever (and a day)

Thought I could never (feel this way)

Is this really me?

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

I'm alive

Come take my hand
You should know me
I've always been in your mind
You know I will be kind
I'll be guiding you
Building your dream
Has to start now
There's no other road to take
You won't make a mistake
I'll be guiding you
You have to believe
We are magic
Nothing can stand in our way
You have to believe
We are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you
From where I stand
You are home free
The planets align so rare
There's promise in the air
And I'm guiding you
Through every turn
I'll be near you
I'll come any time you call
I'll catch you when you fall
I'll be guiding you
You have to believe
We are magic
Nothing can stand in our way
You have to believe
We are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you
You have to believe
We are magic
Nothing can stand in our way
You have to believe
We are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you

Sing-n-dance Gene Kelly! I wish Anx was here to sing this duet with me! Guess I'll just have to do both parts! biggrin


GENE KELLY:
No other face could take you off my mind
You're so refined
OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
You're much too kind
I have to warn you I'm never gonna set you free
'Cause I was born to love you for eternity

GENE KELLY and OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
Whenever you're away from me
Wherever you go
You're never far away from me
I want you to know
I only have to close my eyes dear
And suddenly I'm where you are
You better never stray
'Cos I'll never be far away

GENE KELLY:
On every breeze I seem to hear your name
My heart's aflame

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
I feel the same
I'd fall apart dear
If you let the feelin' end
Don't break a heart dear
Nobody else could mend

GENE KELLY and OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
Whenever you're away from me
Wherever you go
You're never far away from me
I want you to know
I only have to close my eyes dear
And suddenly I'm where you are
You better never stray
'Cos I'll never be far away


GENE KELLY and OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
Whenever you're away from me
Wherever you go
You're never far away from me
I want you to know
I only have to close my eyes dear
And suddenly I'm where you are
You better never stray
'Cos I'll never be far away
OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
You better never stray,
'Cos I'll never be far away

"Special Studio" scene! Gotdamn I heart this movie! Takin me back!


CLIFF RICHARD:
She walks in, I'm suddenly a hero
I'm taken in, my hopes begin to rise

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
Look at me, can't you tell I'd be so
Thrilled to see the message in your eyes

CLIFF RICHARD:
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
Suddenly--

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN and CLIFF RICHARD:
The wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
'Cos I, I'm ready to take all my chances with you

CLIFF RICHARD:
And how can I feel you're all that matters
I'd rely on anything you say
OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
I'll take care that no illusions shatter
If you dare to say what you should say
CLIFF RICHARD:
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
Suddenly--

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN and CLIFF RICHARD:
The wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
'Cos I, I'm ready to take all my chances with you

CLIFF RICHARD:
Why do I feel so alive when you're near,
There's no way any hurt can get

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN and CLIFF RICHARD:
Longing to spend
Every moment of the day with you--
With you

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
Suddenly--

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN and CLIFF RICHARD:
The wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
'Cos I, I'm ready to take all my chances with you

Forget about the blues tonight,
Sweet thing
Forget about the rules tonight
Sweet thing
I wanna dance with you
Until the sun comes creepin' through
I wanna dance with you
I won't stop pleasin' you
Ah...

Honey for awhile
Give a girl a chance to show some style
If you got no love to spare
Tell me lies

'Cos there is nothing I would rather do

Let me show you what I can do
I won't take a back seat
It ain't funny to fool with me

You'd better get down to healin' me

Cartoon Magic!


Why do I say
Don't walk away
You'll be the way you were before
When you don't want me anymore

Don't turn around
Don't ever leave
A lonely room where empty days
Are gathering to meet me when you're gone, gone
How in the world will I go on

(Don't walk away)
All you gotta do is stay
(Don't walk away)
All you gotta do is stay
(Don't walk away)

Don't walk away (don't walk away),
Don't say goodbye (don't say goodbye)
Don't turn around (don't turn around),
Don't let it die (don't let it die)
When shadows fall (when shadows fall),
When day is done (when day is done)
All through the night (all through the night),
All of my life (all of my life)
Don't walk away

Is it a dream,
When will it end
When everything we've ever known
Has ended and I'm all alone

Where will I go
Where will I be
The feelings that I've never shown
Maybe I'll find the answer when you're gone, gone
How in the world will I go on

(Don't walk away)
All you gotta do is stay
(Don't walk away)
All you gotta do is stay
(Don't walk away)

Don't walk away (don't walk away),
Don't say goodbye (don't say goodbye)
Don't turn around (don't turn around),
Don't let it die (don't let it die)
When shadows fall (when shadows fall),
When day is done (when day is done)
All through the night (all through the night),
All of my life (all of my life)
Don't walk away

Don't walk away (don't walk away),
Don't say goodbye (don't say goodbye)
Don't turn around (don't turn around),
Don't let it die (don't let it die)
When shadows fall (when shadows fall),
When day is done (when day is done)
All through the night (all through the night),
All of my life (all of my life)
Don't walk away

Don't walk away (don't walk away),
Don't say goodbye (don't say goodbye)
Don't turn around (don't turn around),
Don't let it die (don't let it die)
When shadows fall (when shadows fall),
When day is done (when day is done)
All through the night (all through the night),
All of my life (all of my life)
Don't walk away

'Glitz' shopping!

Everybody all around the world
Gotta tell you what I just heard
There's gonna be a party all over the world

I got a message on the radio
But where it came from I don't really know
And I heard these voices calling all over the world

All over the world,
Everybody got the word
Everybody everywhere is gonna feel tonight

Everybody walkin' down the street
Everybody movin' to the beat
They're gonna get hot down in the U.S.A.
(New York, Detroit, L.A.)

We're gonna take a trip across the sea
Everybody come along with me
We're gonna hit the night down in gay Pareee

All over the world,
Everybody got the word
Everybody everywhere is gonna feel tonight

(Instrumental break)

London, Hamburg, Paris, Rome, Rio, Hong Kong, Tokyo
L.A., New York, Amsterdam, Monte Carlo, Shard End and

All over the world,
Everybody got the word
Everybody everywhere is gonna feel tonight

Everybody all around the world
Gotta tell you what I just heard
Everybody walkin' down the street
I know a place where we all can meet
Everybody gonna have a good time
Everybody will shine till the daylight

All over the world,
Everybody got the word
Everybody everywhere is gonna feel tonight

All over the world
Everybody got the word
All over the world
Everybody got the word
All over the world
Everybody got the word

Sonny is strugglin- he can't live without Kira!

I see the early glow
I hear you say hello
I watch the shadows fall
I don't see yoou at all

It's a lie (I don't believe it's so)
It's a lie

I see the autumn rain
falling on my window pane
I hear you say goodbye
I see a tear in your eye

~Chorus~
It's a lie (I don't believe it's so)
It's a lie

Our love couldn't go wrong
How could I know, I was only dreaming
and now, now that you're gone
I will go on really believing
I take the fall

I see you slip away
into another day
there's noone else around
I watch the sun go down

Chorus

I see you in a dream
you turn and start to go
I call to you once more
guess that I'm takin' the fall




eek He's crossed over...

Zuse banished Sonny and now Kira's got the blues...

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
A child and a fool in one
So sure I could need no one
My heart always on the run to nowhere
Now as you're holding me
My heart is reminding me
That now I could never be without you

But how can our love succeed
A miracle is what we need
And so I appeal to you
To keep me suspended in time with you
Don't let this moment die
I get a feeling when I'm with you
None of the rules apply
But I know for certain
Goodbye is a crime
So love if you need me
Suspend me in time

Wasted the time away
Holding our love at bay
Now I can't last a day without you
Your smile is a thrill to see
Eyes hold me tenderly
They'll shine in my memory forever

But how can our love succeed
A miracle is what we need
And so I appeal to you
To keep me suspended in time with you
Don't let this moment die
I get a feeling when I'm with you
None of the rules apply
But I know for certain
Goodbye is a crime
So love if you need me
Suspend me in time
In time

The club's open bitches! Xanadu


OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN:
A place where nobody dared to go
The love that we came to know
They call it Xanadu

And now
Open your eyes and see
What we have made is real
We are in Xanadu

A million lights are dancing
And there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting world
And you're here with me
Eternally

Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu

Xanadu, your neon lights will shine
For you, Xanadu

The love
The echoes of long ago
You needed the world to know
They are in Xanadu

The dream
That came through a million years
That lived on through all the tears
It came to Xanadu

A million lights are dancing
And there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting world
And you're here with me
Eternally

Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu,
(now we are here)
In Xanadu

Now that I'm here
Now that you're near in Xanadu
Now that I'm here
Now that you're near in Xanadu
Xanadu...

This movie is a true guilty pleasure for me. I was 10 years old when it first came out and must have totally worn out my 45s of Magic and Xanadu. I even had the comic book! I wonder if that's worth any money these days.


I always thought the basic plot and structure for the movie were very sound and would lend itself to a proper remake. I wish the original wasn't quite so dripping with late 70s cheese. They really went overboard with some of the "effects". lol
