Thank you. Thank you, thank you so much, for everything. All right, so, uh, so those songs, as you can tell, those songs were hardly ever recorded, you know, or, if they have been, they've been on the brand-new albums. But, uh, after Mandy came out, there was all sorts of luh, uck that I had, you know, with "It's a Miracle" and "Can't Smile Without You" and "Weekend in New England" all of lots more hits. And so, I'd like to do the rest of them for you, now--all of them. And, uh, so, for those of you who have enjoyed the music over the years, I thank you for these hits, I do, I thank you for these hits from the bottom of my heart. And, um, you're gonna love this medley. And for those of you who were dragged here tonight, this medley is going to be agony.
It's a very romantic medley--hold somebody's hand or something. You know, somebody got engaged here during this medley. It is very romantic. wrote me, they got engaged during the medley. Isn't that nice? Really, so maybe you'll get engaged. Or at the very least, maybe you'll get lucky, who knows?
One singing in the darkness All it takes is one Singing so hear what's on your mind And when you look around find more than
One singing in the darkness Joining with your one Each and every another octave are joined and fears unlocked
If only one would start it on it's own We need one voice facing the unknown And that one voice would never be alone It takes one voice
I've been alive forever, and I the very first song I put the words and the melodies I am and I write the songs, the songs
