Every door will open wide
To happy people like you

The Degrassi Junior High Theme Song
(Manne/ Watson)
Wake up in the morning, feeling shy and lonely,
gee, I gotta go to school.
I don't think I can make it, don't think I can take it,
I wonder what I'm gonna do.
But when I look around and see,
that someone is smiling right at me,
wait, someones talkin' to me, hey, I gotta new friend.
Everybody can succeed, all you need is to believe,
be honest with yourself, forget your fears and doubts,
come on give us a try at Degrassi Junior High.

Gotta love Grease :cool:
It's a poem by the guy who did Winnie the Pooh, AA Milne. It's from his book When We Were Very Young. And I didn't even know it had been put to music till I googled it to remind myself which Milne book it was in.
Some of us are easily amused....I'm one of those.
I adore Grease :) That one's been on my biking playlist for ages.
This one too, hope I remember it correctly:
I got chiiills, they're multiplying
and I'm looooosing contro-ol...
anyone?
And the powers are electrifyin..
better shape up, cuz i need a man. In my heart he must be true
"There's nothing left, nothing left for me to do..."
When Grease first came out on video (1979?), we were one of the only few of my high school friends who had a VCR (they were GIGANTIC then). I remember having a Grease watching party in my living room. This after we'd seen it at the drive-in for 3 Saturday nights in a row that summer!

My parents had a Betamax with a corded remote control.
You throw great parties! Want to come to my house to watch water boil? :pQuote:

"you're the one that want.oooh oooh ohhh"
It's interesting that teens these days still love Grease. Stockard Channing's still cool & not bad looking after all these years.
Now..TV's-are we the only household that doesn't have a widescreen TV??? I think it would only encourage us to watch more TV! Then again, viewing " Radio Ga Ga", " Princes of the Universe" " Friends will Be Friends" and " Driven By You" on a big screen TV would be ideal.
Next one
I'd sit alone and watch your light

I didn't know that Oz was in color until I went to college. Didn't I feel like a dork when I was oohing and aahing over the pretty colors, while everyone else thought I was a bumpkin.Quote:

It's still one of my favorite movies of all time. With or without color. :o I was also the kid who, at 4 1/2, took a screwdriver to the back of the tv and removed the hard cardboard with the tiny breather holes in it so I could see the little people inside. I was caught while putting the last few screws back in. Fortunately, that bit of technology was eventually explained when I watched the Willy Wonka movie. :rolleyes:
Oh too funny, the exact same thing happened to me, but in high school. :DQuote:

Thatīs funny. I didnīt realise that Bagpuss (British childrensī TV character) was pink until I got to Uni. Do you have Bagpuss in the US?
I did a ski course on the weekend. Our coach said on Saturday "so tonight when you go home and watch the biathlon on TV......" at which point four of us put our hands up to say that we didnīt have television. This was out of a group of seven skiers, so DH and I arenīt the only strange ones.
Haha. When I was a kid I thought the olden days happened in black & white. :p
