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 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 this medley. It is very romantic. Somebody 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 around you'll find There's more
One singing in the darkness Joining your one voice Each and note another octave are joined and fears unlocked
If only one voice start it on it's own We need just one facing the unknown And then that one would never be alone It takes that one
