Movie Song of the Week: “Lament (Lonesome Polecat)”

Why, yes! I have had better St. Valentine's Day weekends. How did you guess? Granted, I wasn't quite as bad off as the guys in this video but there were moments...

Updates

For what it's worth:

1. A longer version of the "June Bride" song from Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.

2. An older version of the Sinbad Jr. and His Magic Belt theme.

Hey, I Remember This Show: Here Comes The Brides

Wow! Spock's dad was on this show?

I knew about Ms. Blondell and Mr. Sherman appearing on this TV series but I kinda forgot that David Soul -- the future Hutch of TV's Starsky and Hutch -- appeared on here too. Apparently this was a TV version of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. I had umpteen chances to see it in prime time and syndication when I was growing up but I do not actually recall making it through a single episode. And I must confess that intro seems a little weird to watch at a time when Seattle is no longer identified primarily with lumber camps.

Movie Song of the Week: “June Bride”

Given the number of wedding songs I posted last June, one would think that I would have remembered this one prior to last week but I did not. From 1954's Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, it is the most obvious June wedding song one can think of -- if one is not me, of course.

I hope you all enjoy it.

Update: There's an even longer version of this song available on YouTube but it's not available for embedding. So you have to follow this link to see it.
