That was very clever.

Send it to a radio station and be famous! (Acutally some dude wayback when....did that to Barbara Streisand and Neil Diamond when they both sang You don't Bring Me Flowers.) Then Babs and Neil get the idea to do it themselves...and the rest is comfortably buried back in the 1980's....

Yeah, I... um... meant to do that. Really. LOL! Actually I never noticed that until you wrote that. I just liked the way the music fit together. Sometimes these things are just happy accidents.

I never knew that about "You Don't Bring Me Flowers". I just thought that's the way they recorded it. I didn't know they had done their own versions first. How cool.

Wow, you nailed it. Definitely Canon and Stephanie. They are both very obvious to me, now that it's been pointed out.

Why don't you dig up the source of those guitar intros on "Out of the Cradle"? My guess would be one of the Italians like Albinoni or Scarlatti.

Say You Will Tour version by a landslide.
