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 sorts 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 from the bottom of my heart. And, um, you're gonna love this medley.

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. Somebody wrote me, they got engaged during the medley. Isn't that nice? Really, so you'll get engaged. Or at the very least, maybe you'll get lucky, who knows?
