The weekend hoves into view, and - despite the torrential rain today - we need to get in the mood for a party!
He looks a little different these days [click to embiggen]
The fact that the formerly-gorgeous Paul Mercurio of tight-trousered Strictly Ballroom fame [see here] is (gulp!) sixty years old today gives me the perfect excuse to post a classic number that was used in the film (here performed in an updated version by its original 70s singer) - and Thank Disco It's Friday!
Have a good one, dear reader, whatever the weather!
That's a beautiful song, always have loved it
ReplyDeleteMe too. Jx
DeleteThat's a nice update of the tune - takes me back to when I first started recording music from the radio on my dad's spanking new music centre!!

I loved my music centre! It may not have been as lovely as my radiogram, but as you say, you could record from the radio - I had loads of cassettes from Bruno Brookes' Top 40 show (complete with failed attempts at cutting his voice out 😀). Jx
DeletePaul Mercurio was acclaimed to have the most beautiful bum in Hollywood. I am not sure if I would like to have a look these days (well ok, yes I would if I had to)
ReplyDeleteLove the updated version and video of that lovely song and loved the film too.
He's a lot heftier now, so I doubt that his arse is as callipygian today. Jx
